I've only been in one long-distance relationship. And let me tell you, it wasn't worth it. We had met on vacation, and we exchanged phone numbers and screennames. After we both were home, we talked a lot. I knew he liked me, but I didn't want to get into a long-distance relationship because I knew it wouldn't work out. But I took a chance, and a month after (yes, only a month), we broke up. It just didn't work. I can't be in a relationship where I don't see them for, let's say a month. That might just be me, though. I think long-distance relationships need a LOT of trust, confidence, and communication.

I think it depends. The majority of people who have long distance relationships are like 40-50 years old and well, you've heard the stories about that 14 year old getting raped by someone who found out where she lives.

But if you met each other, talked on the phone, and stuff that normal couples do, but it's a long distance relationship, I think there's a 50% chance that it might work or not, depending on how old you are.

There's always going to be a 50/50 chance on whether things like this would work or not. It takes a lot of trust and yeah...

long distance relationships are a toughie and rarely ever work, because you don't get to see them that often, and your schedules just don't meet up. It'll become hard to continuously talk online or chat on the phone when he/she has other things to do (i.e. work, school, etc.).

but you can give it a shot if you really want to... it'll take lots of determination, trust, and committment.

my friend was in a long distance relationship and couldn't make it work cuz the b*tch was cheating on him. she cheated for three months and then waited almost a year before visiting him and on their last day together, he took her to the airport and she told him she had cheated on him for three months. i was so angry when he told me about it.

i don't think that things can work out if you're in a long distance relationship because eventually you guys are going to get HORNY and can't do it together so you'll do it with other people.

My girlfriend and I are madly in love.. yet she lives 1000 miles away.. I live in California, and she lives in Oregon.. I think that's a 1000.. anywho.. We met through her cousin, which is my sisters best friend. It was love at first sight, I felt such a strong connection, the only bad thing was.. that she lives in oregon.. I know the statistics, and how these relationships never work.. but I KNOW this will work out.. I can feel it, everytime I hear her voice.. long distance relationships will work if you're in love with each other.. I went to Florida for 2 weeks to see my grandparents.. and when I came back, and got off of that plane.. she was waiting there for me.. Tell me that isnt love..

i'm more of a long distance relationship person o_O. i'm in a long disntance relationship now lol. yea it's hard but as everyone else has already said, it depends on the 2 people and how commited, faithful, and trusted in they are. rushx, like you i really want this relationship to work out and i really hope it does. but to answer your question, i really do believe in long distances, maybe cause i put a lot of trust in people all the time but i guess sometimes you just have to take the chance. if you don't you'll never know what the out come may be.

they are a strong relationship, makes every thing more meaningful, however, it gets to a point where its too difficult and then long distant relationship fails.

Most of the time, it fails after a certain amount of time/years, months, ect

Despite the "Statistics" that ppl put on relationships, it really depends on the two ppl. If u and the other person really love each other, it doesnt matter how far apart u guys r. Its not good to go with statistics even though thats what the majority does. My logic is : "r u gonna be that part of the majority?"

[COLOR=blue][SIZE=1][FONT=Arial] have you ever been in LDR or mostly known as Long Distance Relationship... some people say its hard and it won't work...

ok... im a biased 'coz im in it... but still i say "why not?" there's nothing impossible when it comes to love right??? as long as you and your partner love each other and remain loyal and faithful to each other it will work... you just have to focus yourself to things that you needed to do to make things work out.. right??? biggrin.gif think positive guyz...

it depends, like if the couple was together in the same country and one of them had to move away, but continued their relationship than i guess that's fine. cause i'm in a long distance right now it's working out.

but if the both of you met through internet then i'd say no

it sucks. been there done that. it all comes down to trust...eventually.

i dated a guy who moved to hawaii and i live in cali. so yeah...i found out that he cheated.

i just don't trust guys very easily...when it comes to dating.

i'd never ever do the whole long distance relationship thing again.

i guess they can work sometimes, but you're taking a chance.

it's up to you, but i think they suck.

some of you guys cant read. she never said she talked to the guy on the internet. it could be that they use 2 live by each other and on person in the relationship moved away so they talk on the phone alot..not all long distance relationships are online

They don't really work, even if they suurvive and people live happily ever after or whatever, while they were far away they were cheating.... usually just one of them, but they are NEVER on their best behavior!

the power of imagination and denial
*

^hmmm, i find that intersesting on what you said about long distance relationships. Imagination and Denial. You could turn that into a poem or something.

My opinion on long distance relationships...phew oh boy. ok..well. There are many long distance relationships that DO work out. and then there are twice as many long distance relationships that don't work out. You have to be able to trust the person, but not be too over protective and domineering, so the other person can have a life too. And i mean it matters what KIND of long distance relationship it is. I mean there are some that start off as living in the same town or something and one had to move. Or it could be meeting someone online or something. Very different. So like he [wind&fire] said, it's part "imagination and denial". You are imagining how your relationship could be, instead of really having one. And you are in denail of the fact that you are imagining and that it might not work because the person is so far away. Ultimately I find long distance relationships hard, but it can be done. It just has to be with the right person.

Some people are just more clingy than others and need their other to be there for them physically. I know at least 3 long distnace relationships which are like 40 times better than some of the normal-distance realtionships. So yeah...if you really want to be with the other persn you can make it work. Its also a test to see whether the couple really wants to be together.
