It depends on how deeply you both want it to work. My husband lived in Canada when we met. I lived in California. We dated long distance for a while and when we couldn't stand being apart any longer, we got married. Now it's been 13 years and four children and we are more happier today than we were years ago. And I wouldn't have never thought i could be any happoer than I was then. Good luck hun XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Long distance relationships rarely work out unless the relationship is well-established before the separation occurs. Military families who have established a good foundation can endure the separation knowing that the tour of duty is going to end and their physical intimacy will be restored. It is a matter they can deal with because they know it is not permanent. Young people who are separated by distance as when one goes off to college, often find the circumstances too challenging and the relationship deteriorates from neglect.

May I ask whether you said the long distance relationship with foreigner from the other country? Or someone you love been moved far far away from you but you both still love each other?
If first one, I would give you a big vote. I've been doing this right now for 9th months from the internet....hhaahahahha wish me luck!
All that you have to do are put the trust, faith, keep the mind on each other, believing, love, caring, encouraging to this realtionship is work out, that would be work out, because you gain the great chance to meet someone from the other side of the world. You whould be keep it in your heart and let it grow!

well yeah it does, though it also depends on how much you trust and love each other. =D relationships only work because of love. If you truly love your partner, you won't even think of cheating. Good communication is also an important factor in a relationship. I met my guy at a dating site named webdate. He lives and works in a different state but despite of distance we never lost touch and we both remained faithful to each other. Now I'm happy to say that we're actually getting married. So, do long distance relationships work... I definitely say it does! love can definitely break all barriers.=D

It is working for me. It depends on how trustful you are. How jealous you may get, and how long you can go without physically being together. My boyfriend and I (we've been together for 2 years) are currently enduring the stress of a long distance relationship and we are making it work. You have to give a lot more in this type of relationship. It's a lot harder than a regular relationship.

Ask any military couple. They can, but they don't always. As with anything else in life, it depends on how much you are BOTH willing to WORK at the relationship. Any relationship takes work, but a long distance relationship takes at least twice as much. Good luck with whatever decision you make.

I was in a long distance relationship once about... 5 years ago. I am now married to him, and have a 1 year old daughter... So I would say yes, they work.

I am friends with a couple for whom this has worked for many years. They attribute their success to the fact that it's ALWAYS been this way. They met on a trip to China. One teaches college in PA, the other in CT. They live together in CT during school breaks and summer. They don't think it would have worked had they lived together all the time and then tried to live this way. I think their take on the situation makes sense. Oh yes, obviuosly, children should not be involved. It really would not be fair to them. This couple did not have children together but the guy has 2 from a previous marriage. Hope this info helps.

i have never seen a long distance relationship work. Maybe its cause I was in college and those involved werent mature enough for a long distance relationship. But i guess for it to work both partied would have to be trustworthy.

If you have a real connection with each other, enough chemistry to help you feel warm at night even when miles apart, and each are committed to putting lots of good energy into staying connected and growing and making time to actually see each other...yes!
Okay, I would like to add what the previous person wrote...communication! Keep talking and writing and making time together. You need to really share yourselves, and to build trust so that you don't feel insecure in any way about what your partner is doing while away from you. You need to make each other know they are the #1 person in your heart, your priority.
