it works out for me lol. Me and my gf has been together for like a year and she lives in Hong Kong and I'm studying in America now. I just go back and visit her every christmas and summer.
long distance relationship is VERY Hard to maintain..first the cost of phone call bills..then secondly hard to meet up....lastly...you dont know what is he/she doing now..with who ??
unless you're reallly, reaaallly committed... or else it wont work, you'll be barely seeing each other. But i mean if both of them are willing to give effort and try, it could somehow work out
At the start you convince yourself that it will work out but from my experience it will not last longer than 12 mths. As you cannot get the physical contact with ur partner and that is the emotional aspect which is very difficult even thou you are having video calls.
my friend in Perth and his gf in Msia: he spent heaps juz in air tickets and phone bills... So exp to maintain
Long D relationships. I don't think I will try. It will be really hard to maintain that relationship if you're far away from each other. Unless one person is willing to move to where the other is living. If not what's the possiblity that the two will see each other in a year. Plus you never know what the other person is doing, that person may even be double dating or just playing on you. I think there will need to be 100% trust between the two for this to work out.
for me ive always been in a long distance relationship nothing like the 3 mentioned but different area codes and far drives. i juss got out of one. usually for me it doesnt work out. so as for me i do now prefer more local
I am in a long distance relationship and have been for last 5 years. We both are working for the same company but in different countries. We thought about either one of us moving permanently to each others respective countries but realise that we can't do it because we don't like each other's countries. We are both not the traditional type so getting married and having children is not our thing. We see each other at least twice a month. The most important thing between us is that we trust each other and I think that is the reason why it has worked for us. -drool
I have a friend who has been in that situation before. His Girlfriend moved down to Florida with her family and visited at one time. They both communicated with each other, like you said before. Later on something went wrong, there was a misunderstanding. So my friend wasted his feelings and time for her, she said to him "Let's just be friends" telling him what's the point of visiting each other.
I was in one for a year, and it was horrible. Not because of the distance so much as the fact she was somewhat crazy. I'm in another one now, and it's much better. I think they can work, so long as both people are dedicated, and the ultimate goal is to be together in person.
it can work out but .. it's too much work.. trusting is definiteely an issue.. to think where or what the person is doin .. without being able to see them much... it's just.. sad
depending on what kind of person you are, but to think of them all the time in fear they might stray can drive one to insanity ^^
Probably 2/10 work out. Both parties have to strive and put effort into making it work. It's about love, trust and believing in each other. And the day when the 2 finally decide to move to be with each other permanently, there are new hurdles with immigration process and one's reluctance to leave country, friends and family.
It depends how long you consider is "long distance" if its like half way around the world then I wouldn't You'd be sleeping when they are waking up and vice versa... if it was two to three hours drive, then I would If you truely love that person, you would go those extra miles just to see them.
