Long distance, I mean like about a 2-3 hour drive from your home. Reason I'm asking is because I just met this girl and she is about 2hrs. away, but we are crazy about each other. I hope like hell this one works out because I have not felt like this in a long time. Anybody else have a long distance romance that blossomed? Unfortunately, our days off are different too, but we have keys to each other's places and can hang out while one of us is at work. I told her the distance is an obstacle for us that we will kinda have to struggle against, but that struggle will make us stronger as a couple in the long run. Well, people, any comments will be appreciated, and I would like to forward your comments to her. Thanks bros and sistas.

Yeah, they work, but not for me. However, my sister is getting married to a guy who she met and dated while she was in conn., and he was in Chicago, so...Good luck.

They work for a while until the trust issue is threatened. Then the cheating will begin, and continue. Get a lot of sex from one another, and stay on good terms. That way when one of you is in town near the other, you both will always be able to get a piece. Good Luck, though!

well, I went to Texas Tech my freshman year, and I had a fried who had been dating a girl in Austin for about a year, basically, they would take turns driving 7 hours every weekend. Well, its a year later and they are engaged, so yes they work, but you have to be up to driving alot.

Yep they do. My girl was in London for a while before she came home, so over a year after meeting her, we would email, IM, talk on the phone and fly to see one another. Been six years, living together for 4 now.

It works, but it is not the distance as much as it is the people and their chemistry.

No it won't work. Someone will cheat. You'll put in too much effort and get shit on in the end. End of story.

Not usually they don't if its long term. Unless you able to function with both partners cheating on one another, and worse than that flirting with everything that dont smell bad.

Easiest girl to pick up is one whos man/hubby is away or in the service. They crave attention AND sex. Give them both, and it usually isnt hard to crack.

Im being realistic.

I been in a long distance relationship for well over two years now. I'm 20 and my girl is 18. We were together off and on for about two years and then we finally decided to take it to the next level. Unfortunately I been away from her for the last 2 and some change. Its been hard but we can't give each other up. Trust and honesty is the most important issues, along with communication. If you both want it bad enough it will work. I wish I was a few hours drive away. Shit, I went from being on the other side of the country to being on the other side of the world. Shits still hard but we'll make it. You never know what good might come out of this, and if you don't give it a try you'll always wonder. Sorry for the long post and good luck!!!

Been there, done that. It works better if the relationship is already established. Hard trying to build one long distance. BUT... remember every chick gets lonely and needs a man around to give her attention. Here is what usually happens: You are out of town, she and some friends are going out, they all have their men, your girl is alone. Next time one of her friends man decides to bring a friend and all 4 of them go out and have fun. Then you get the call of how confused she is, end of story. Good luck

2 to 3 hours is really nothing to worry about. My boyfriend is a good 24 hour drive away. That's 1100 miles. Hell, he was just in South America for a month and a half. I haven't seen him in over 6 months but we're doing ok. We still love eachother just as much, if not more. It just makes the times we do get to see eachother that much more special. You'll be alright!

I had a long distance relationship that was about 1200 miles. I met her by writing her a letter after I saw a picture. She was and still is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen.
We have been married for over 10 years now and it has gotten better everyday I have known her.
Long distance relationships can work, if it fails then it was not the right one. If it works it may be the happiness your life will revolve around.
GO FOR IT AND GOOD LUCK
