It can go either way. For a long distance relationship to work both of you have to work at it.It takes trust,honesty,faith and maturity from both of you for it to work. Years ago I lived in Alaska and was in a relationship with a girl I had been going with for about a year. After high school I went to Laramie,Wyoming to attend a trade school. We swore our undying love to each other,and off I went.
Back then I could only call like once a week to chat for a few minutes and we wrote hundreds of letters back and forth.
Sadly just a few weeks before I was to return home in Alaska she sent me a letter explaining that she had been so lonely and began talking to a friend which progressed to hanging out as friends....and one night they got carried away and...well.....
It broke my heart but we were young and prone to make mistakes.
Now some forty years later we are still friends and I think of her often with fond memories.
It is worth a shot at least!

I hope it will work out for me. It is just so hard to be so far away from each other. We will be almost 2 years now together, and i cant imagine life without him. Been through heartbreaks and he knows that, and he promised he will not break my heart. I hope he keeps his promise.

YES! long distance relationship works.. it depends on the couple how they can manage their communication to each other. as long they understand, trust and never break the communication everything will be fine..
I know it works because i got a lot of friends who's into a long distance relationship. and they keep trying hard to make time to each other.
well YM, FACEBOOK, SKYPE, VIBER is around and free as long you have internet connections.. ehehe..
well i wish you luck :)

Communication is important, very much. I do wish it all work out for me, coz we have a hard time on communicating because our schedules don't meet because of the time difference.
Thanks for luck, i really need that. :)

Distance means nothing if Hes your everything. Respect is the most important in the relationship because everything on it follows..Don't feel doubt with your BF coz if He respects you a lot then he will not do things that can hurt you. Same in your part if you have a lot of respect to your him then the trust is always there, don't doubt it.

I agree, respect and trust should always be there. If it doesn't then it won't work out. But if he has done something and trust is broken. But still i forgave him for that coz i really do love him, but now there is a little doubt in my heart. Though he has proven himself, still if trust is broken, my trust for him can not be the same as it was.

I think it works on some relationships. But to be able for it to work, both needs complete trust with each other.

It's hard to be in a long distance relationship. But it depends to both how you would handle the relationship, on how you gonna care each other. Distance nothing to do with the relationship if you really love each other.
Happy mylotting!

Yes Dear long distance relationship really works but it must have loyalty in it from both the sides. If any one-side has doubt or some kind of bluffing thoughts then it will throw your life into jungle.

I think that they can work, but it very much depends on the type of people who are involved. If you are both happy with the way that things are going then this is great, but if one of you is always wanting more then this is something that can be a little more annoying and can require more work. With the internet there is the chance to be in contact with them every day so there is no need to go for months without talking like you might have done a few years ago, so it isn't as though you can't stay in touch easily.

only if you are able to do sacrifices to be with this person. because if you are not able to go to his country or to his city to see him then isnt worth it. sometimes people start relationships and they are far away and then no one wants to be the one visiting for example. i mean if there is love both should do sacrifices to be able to see each other. about trust is hard. because you dont know for sure what the other is doing. but if you feel that he is real and through his actions of always wanting to talk to you and see you maybe you can understand if he is serious about you or not. i wish you the best if you are on a long distance relationship.

No.
You really can't even trust yourself. Oh, you know the way you SHOULD be; but the conscience sleeps, and the lusty body gets out to play.

It depends. Others are yes because they really trust and love each other. While others not. Because they cannot take being far away from their love ones. :)

I think this type of relationship never works. I was in love with a girl who lives in a town which is 300 km away. Of course we talk, but a relationship assume much more. I quitted. I didn't want to see my girl every 2 weeks. I want her by me, to feel her, to touch her. I'm sure you want same things and I'm sure also you find another girl by you who can be whatever you want.
