I have GF in indiana, I live in michigan, we are 170 miles away from eachother. I have known her 2 weeks, and i love her, she used to tell me that to, although since i haven't seen her yet she has been telling me it's hard to love me when i'm not here with her. And she has been rethinking about me and her. I am 16 and she is 17. I love her so much though I'm tryin to see her i wanna be with her. live real close. I need to find a way to do that. Wondering your expirience with long term relationships? I really would do anything so i could live next to her and see her everday. I considered walking from 170 miles to see her. I have never connected with someone like her, who is alot like me, that loves me for me, that is deep like her. I don't wanna lose her and i wanna atlest see her.

Okay, how to put this.....I do not mean anything degrading or sarcastic by this....A long distance relationship is not easy for an adult, let alone a teenager. You obviously met her online somehow, since you live in different states and you have never met. That being said, keep in mind, that a person online, chatting, emailing, etc. can and sometimes will tell you what you want to read. And in some cases can be far from what they are really like. She did make a smart remark......it's hard to love you when you are not living in the same area. The best thing to do at this point, stay in touch, email, chat, whatever.....but for now, keep it a friendship. You have a few years before leaving high school, as does she. And then college or work, what ever your plans are for after high school. Keep in mind, that if this is truly meant to be.....it will be!

hi meathere,
It seems that you really love this girl. Too bad, you're far from each other. Long distance relationship is not that easy as some people think. I've been in a long distance relationship until today. It's kinda very hard, because you're far away from your love one. How much you misses him/her. How much you wish you could be together and spend happy days. He's far away from me, because of his work. So we have to sacrifice things. If you want a long distance relationship, you should be committed to it, committed to your partner. Trust and communication are the most important thing to consider if you want this to work.
In your case, i think it's complicated, but if you really do want and love this girl, then maybe you'll do something about it. If you can, maybe you can set a date on when you can see her. But for the meantime, you should continue having a good communication to her.

Long distance relationship is not easy. It entails a lot of sacrifices. Though when you love someone, there's nothing impossible. You can do everything just to see him/her. Or you can sustain the feelings. Though there's always a great danger there. Most of the people who indulged in a long distance relationship failed to end up with marriage. Considering those factors, like one meets someone who is closer, an office mate for example.
Anyhow, good luck to you and to all who have a long distance relationship.

Having a long distance relationship is no problem. No matter how far it is, as long as you two love each other, and trust each other. Without trusting each other problems will usually crop up. It is with trust you can develop a deeper love which will bring you into a marriage life.
