I was 13 when I met her, at the age of 15 I left to the U.S. since then I've never came back to see her, but I stayed in touch with her. I call her every two weeks, chat online sometimes, but all that was not enought for me. I'm a student and I work hard to save some money to go back and see her. I haven't seen her for the past 6 years. Now will our relationship be stronger in the future?
I love her to death, shewas the first girl I've loved and I hope she'll be the last if god will. I'm afraid if anything might go wrong in our relationship while I'm here in the U.S.
I'm also plannig to travel back to see her this winter or next summer, I'm saving money. Roundtrip ticket is between $1500-$1750. Please help me work out and fight for what could be good for my relationship, thankx.

Yes! Long distance relationships CAN work out! It is A LOT of hard work. I don't know what country you are from and what the customs are there, so I don't know how relevant or plausible my advice will be.
Always tell her your true feelings. Let her know your worries. Don't forget to tell her how much she means to you, OFTEN!
Always treat each other with honesty, trust, understanding, respect, and be willing to compromise and to communicate thoughts and feelings openly. This is the basic foundation of a relationship that both people need to work on to make it work, especially for a long distance relationship.
If you've both been waiting for each other six years, I don't think there's much to worry about. Once you have earned the money, go back and see her. Tell her and show her how much she means to you. Talk about both of your futures.
Fight for your relationship, but also be realistic. Sometimes no matter how much both of you care about each other, there are other things that get in the way, such as time and physical distance. Long distance relationships can work, depending on how willing both people are to put hard work into the relationship.

Wow, at 15, she's the first girl you've loved? Oh my, I think you should worry about finishing school. Education is really important. Live life, meet a wonderful girl wherever you may be living in the world right now. Don't get too serious, just enjoy your youth, have fun and wait until you're mature enough to make better choices about love. Long distance relationships don't work. Stop fooling yourself!

this is so sweet.... to be young and in love!
yes, long distance relationship can work if both of you are that committed to each other. you can keep your long distance affair burning by always keeping in touch.... since you chat online, why not do voice chats and webcams, there's also the video phone where you can talk and see each other.... sending emails everyday... and of course you should meet with her in person to get to know more about her. sometimes things seen online are not the same as in offline.
(that's what i would do to keep the relatonship alive)

Its good that you have been in touch with her on emails, chat and phone.
Have you ever told her about your feelings for her
Does she have the same feelings for you? What kind of talk do you guys have..
You seem to be a responsible person and have been doing it on yuor own pocket money.
It will work if you have been honest about your relationship.
Send her a gift over the internet on her birthday.
Express your feelings for her.
My prayers are with you.

I am in a long distance relationship.Have been for 2 years. we live 80 miles away from each other. which is 1hr and a half drive. we only see each other on weekends. we take turns visiting each other. talk on phone every night we dont see each other. (have a good cell phone plan). we bonded by talking on the phone. I feel like it helped us to get closer. we are getting married in october. if you still are in touch with each other and she has feelings for you then its goona work out. I beleive it will for you so go for it!!

i have never seen a long distance relationship that has ever worked out. people change and there is not much we can do about it. you really should talk to her before you get your heart set on visiting her. you sound like you are really setting yourself up for a fall. i could be wrong, but don't hold your breath.

Well....I think your visit will give you all your answers.
She will let you know.
If things go great.....snatch her up and bring her back with you!
