hello... good day! At first I don't believe in LDR...because when someone is so far from you...you could struggle everyday without seeing him and touching him...and worst you may lost him...It really depends on the couple how they handle it. As for me, I am now believing that it really works. My bf and I are already in a 10-year relationship just last 2006 he left for work at the cruise as a singer. Until now he is still travelling accross the continents for 6 to 7 months per year. I had difficult times before, I even lost my hopes that this relationship will work..but you know what? It really worked for the both of us...with constant communication, adjustments, and the most important thing of all...LOVE and TRUST...have faith for the relationship you have...because if the two of you are really meant to be...and you worked for it... there is no impossible to have a relationship successful...

Wow that's good to know you are still together and your realtionship is going stronger. sometimes I do believe in LDRs sometimes I don't especially when we keep on fighting because he is always busy at work. We broke up many times but also got back together countless times. Haha. I agree with what you said that if we trust and love each other and that if we really are meant to be partners the universe will conspire to keep us together. We just have to keep the faith.

That's actually kind of similar to a relationship I know of. My uncle and aunt met in college, then my aunt moved to the other side of the world. They kept up their relationship for four years until my uncle decided that something needed to change so they got married. They've been married now for about ten years now and are very happy with three kids.
So I do believe in long distance relationships. It takes a lot of work, dedication and trust along with love.
I also know a man who married a his girlfriend who lived on the other side of the country. Also, I'm currently involved in a long distance relationship.

I think its possible to be a couple from miles and miles away, but its alot harder than being able to see each other most of the time as you have more trust than you would if you saw each other. You need to trust the person you are in a relationship anyway but everyone goes out so if your not there you need to be even more trusting.

This kind of relationship im afraid for. My best friend and i planned to work in other country and this time i been in a relationship and its hard for me to leave all of them (family, may dog and my boyfriend).
So i decided to just stay here and make money. And i heard that TIME is so important. You never bring back the time that past. I want to live with them and make my day as if its last.
Go with him. 4 years is not a joke. There's a lot of things that would happen. You never know if he/ she still in you. Ive watch lots of movies and when they are away that is the time that your partner temp to do bad things on you. But not telling you that it would happen also. What if its true?

Well, good for you daiweian. If I were in your shoes, I would do the same thing. If only I could live with him or get him to live with me. But things are more complicated because we have to consider our job, visas, etc.. TIME together is really important, and sometimes it is the very reason why we have misunderstandings.
