    I am in California for the summer (2-3 months) and my boyfriend is back in New York City. I know the summer doesn't seem a long time, but... Anyways, any advice for keeping the relationship fresh?

    I don't know, I live in New York City. There's a lot of hot girls here. Why don't you post up a picture so we can see if you have a chance at keeping him away from the PYT's (Michael Jackson song) in NYC this summer?

    It's not like you're going to stay in cal for that long, if he can't wait for 2-3 months, than just find another man. You afraid of him cheating?

    You don't have much of a relationship if you both can't wait for a couple of months.

    don't worry .. y'all will break up over the summer .. there are just too many HOT gals and guys in cali .. just a matter of time before you dump the guy back home .. 2-3 months ain't long but certainly long enough for a change of heart.

    if a relation will break up in this short time, then the person isn't serious....is really the matter of both party to stay put...if he/she is going to date another person, i really doubt his/her seriousness...
     
  10. As everyone said, if you can't be separate for a few months, then your relationship is not serious.

    Long distant relationships are really tough!!! It can really work! I'm was in one and now we're finally in the 1 place after 2.5 years. We called with each other on the phone daily, chatted on MSN daily while at work when we had a free moment. We let each know what we up to etc. We wait up for each other to get home and chat. We just tried to make it as close as possible to being with each other in the same place.

    Sounds like she has the hots for you mate!

    or maybe she wants to leave China behind to be where you're at?

    Long distance relationships are hard. My GF just went back to HK/Japan and will probably be there for a year+. Really what you need to plan is.... 1) What are your plans for after you guys are together again.. Do you see a future? 2) Plan days to talk,etc. Nowadays with Skype there's no reason not to webcam. Don't make it too often; imo planning 2-3 times to talk a week is way more than enough. {Quality not quantity} This is like a date .. so make sure to show up at the times you 2 promised. 3) Trust each other. If both of you can't fulfill all three of these while you two aren't together, you may as well find someone new. It's tough (._.) ( ̄へ ̄)

    In his situation, he / you have two choices:

    A) remain faithful completely
    B) some negative events happens ; since it relationship let's assume he has a one night stand for extream case

    now, I don't know the length of your relationship, so i will assume you two have been together for a while.

    If your boyfriend remains faithful, then that would be the right thing to do. Now, the problem as you mentioned how to keep the relationship fresh? The single yet most efficient and effective method would be the classical phone call or picture message.

    some thing you may want to think about, if you were him how would you feel that your girlfriend is going away for 2-3 months.

    I will conclude this to what i mentioned at first, my comment can be vice-versa and for extream cases so if it is not that extream then you may be in a better position.

    LD relationship doesn't work! Why bother. It's not like there is nothing out there. Move on or move in! Get in or get out!

    If both can't stay off for a summer, then it's not meant to be.

    Try webcam, or 3G phone...make sure you have the data package...lol.

    Get a dildo, before you webcam. That's helps. Plz, I'm serious, no j/k!
