A long distance Relationship

There are long distance relationships, there's no doubt on that. For married couples, these relationships tend to be strong. However, on boyfriend-girlfriend ones, the success is slim... for in these cases, I don't believe that distance makes the heart grow fonder. I am more inclined to believe on "out of sight, out of mind". Before you go away, marry her first :)

The whole time my husband and I were dating it was a long distance relationship. No, we didn't just meet online and decide we were going to get married without knowing each other first. But he's in the military and is stationed 1000 miles away from where we both are originally from. We had already met, but we went on our first three dates while he was home from tech school. We hadn't seen each other, or talked to each other in over a year at that time. Anyway, after we went on those dates, we started talking on the phone and online a lot. The next time I saw him was Christmas time. He got to my house on Christmas Eve and proposed on December 28th. Then he left to come back to North Dakota on New Year's Eve. We got married the following May. We've been married almost two years now and it's wonderful. The long distance relationship worked well for us because we were both committed to each other. As long as you are both committed, it is just as likely to work out whether it's long distance or not.

If I believe in this long distance relationship, and implement the thoughts, then there will be a long distance between us.

Yes they are sometimes god and sometimes......... well It deoends on the sinceruty and seriousness.

yes... i've experience that before. when my boyfriend stayed in the province for a long time. i was so sad then.

well i've been in a long distance relationship for almost 4years and i admit its not that easy.My x is a seaman and we just meet each other once a year.sad thing s we broke up last year cause he found another gurl...and he's now married.Yes of course at first the pain is unbearable since i love her so much.. cant explain how deap is the pain i felt before. dont even know how to move on.but as months goes by you will see the reasons why those things happened.Simply we're not meant for each other. Well my point is a relationship will work wether it is a long distance or not.. if you just have respect with each other and both of u are exerting effort to make the relationship work then surely it will last...but then again if you did your best but still it did not work, dont blame the distance ..simply think that you're not meant for each other thats why it happens. :) goodluck to you. GOD BLESS.:)

Hi jinux! YES! I certainly do believe in long distance relationship I was into for almost 8 years. I was happily married to a man whose work requires us to be separated for a couple of months but when LOVE is true and the foundation is strong no nautical miles can ever hinder your relationship. Communication is one of the key to keep the love burning we really see to it that we have an hour to talk thru yahoo messenger and it really feels like he is beside me everyday. All I can say is that couples who are in a long distance relationship are the one who control the helm and safely navigate thier relationship to unexpected tides and rough seas if they are guided by love and faith they will bring the ship safely on thier port of happiness.

Yes, as long as both are true to one another, have patience, and the means to get to one another someday. My only long distance relationship ended because my mom would not agree with him coming here... now we don't even speak. Oh, I always think what could have been. I could be in Canada with him now, instead of where I've been since birth... sigh.
