Who believes in really long distance relationships?

(Like state difference)

Answer #1

Me and my boyfriend live 250 miles away from each other. We see each other about once every 5 weeks or so. It’s hard but it still works.

Answer #2

some work but most dont its not worth the heart ache

Answer #3

some work but most dont its not worth the heart ache

Answer #4

I believe it can work with commitment, trust, and hard work…but it’s defiantly not for everyone. Some people need to be able to communicate face to face, and be able to physically connect with their partner for it to work. It just depends on the people.

I personally could never have a serious relationship over the internet or phone.

Answer #5

I completely believe in it. As long as both of the people put the effort into the relationship, it can work. Its not easy, but what relationship is? It requires communication, fer shur, and a lot of it. Its not the same as a relationship w someone who lives in your town, but it can work. If you really like this boy, go for it girl! :)(:

Answer #6

they don t work unless you don t mind one or the other cheating.

Answer #7

Thats not true. There are a lot of people out there who wont cheat. Yes, there are a lot of people who will cheat…but not all!

Answer #8

My parents had a long distance relationship. They are still married.

Answer #9

they are very difficult, but very possible. there are many things you will not get from a long-distance relationship… no physical connection, no one to cuddle with, no shoulder to cry on or hand to hold. but it all comes down to the strength of your love. if two people are really & truly in love, they will find a way to make it work.

Answer #10

My “fiancee” and I live in side-by-side states about five hours (by car) away from each other and we used to see each other about every other month but life got busy. Last time I saw him was around Halloween and the next time I’ll see him will probably be around our anniversary, February 18th. And before Halloween it had been about three months since I had seen him. Like I said, life became busy. He got a job that took up a lot of his time and he doesn’t make enough money for the time he works plus all this other crap… So yeah. Is it hard? Oh yes. But impossible? Nope. Like the others said. Hard work, trust, commitment, dedication, and everything else. Very important, and if you’re thinking about carrying one on, all I have to say is good luck :)

Answer #11

if your really committed to your partner i say go for it

Answer #12

If you truly love each, it’ll work. If you don’t… probably won’t.

Answer #13

It takes a lot of trust, and a lot of communication. My boyfriend of over a year lives two plane rides from me, and about two full days driving. But it works for us. I hardly ever get to see him, but having skype and phone calls happens to be enough. I believe that they can work, and they’re worth the work if it matters to both sides, but it really does take a lot of trust. Then again, every relationship does.

Answer #17

Answer #18

Now, that’s what I call dedication. Kudos…

Answer #19

Honestly, the idea of a long distance relationship is doomed to fail in a majority of cases.

Answer #20

im 14 my boyfriends 16 and he lives in ohio and i live in virginia, i love him to death! it works for us i get to see him about 1once a month or every 2 months if lucky but we talk all day and he feels its goos because it makes him want me a whole lot more and hes also a great guy, so i think long distance can work if you both try, dont cheat or mess around and love eachother and always keep talking everyday if you can

Answer #21

My boyfriend and I go to different schools, he is in upstate NY and I go to school in NJ. I am transferring Fall 2011 to California. He is not accompanying me but fully supports me. If both individuals are willing to make the relationship last, they can make it happen.

Answer #22

no, i live near Australia, and my ex lives in washington, he cheated… not a god idea.

Answer #23

i think its fine if your both happy with it but i really dont believe you can commit to a long term, “proper” relationship only seeing each other ever so often. but thats my view

Answer #24

good**

Answer #25

i believe they can work but not all of them do. you have to have a lot of trust in each other, to make sure you’s won’t cheat. just talk to each other everynight or day even if its through email and its at different times, and just trust that neither of you wont cheat on each other and if you’s did, maybe be honest and own up to it

Answer #26

I did! But it didnt work ;(

Answer #27

boo! they’re no good unless uve already been together for a while n u trust each other n the long distance problem is only short term

Answer #28

i believe in it cuz im in 1 over a year
