Yes, but it takes a lot of hard work on both sides. I did it. Good Luck.

Depends on if you are willing to work for the relationship and trust one another. My boyfriend and I had a long distance relationship for 2 years before we moved in together. We only lived 2 hours away from each other and saw each other once a week. It was hard, but love kept us going. And look at all of the military wives left behind while their husbands are at war. Some make it and some don't. Its all in what you are willing to give.

I answered this same question yesterday, so if you wanted to check my past answers...its quite detailed. Many will say long distance relationships won't work, but many also DO work. I met my fiancee online in 2001, and we are still together. Both have to be extremely committed, and in the end, one has to be prepared to leave their life where they are to move to be with their partner. We spent literally hours talking on the phone every single night, travelled back and forth for about a year, and when that got expensive, I sold everything I had in British Columbia and moved 5000 east to Ontario. I miss my home, but I love my guy, so it was worth it.
Yes, they definitely can work. Don't listen to all the negative, there are bad experiences in long distand relationships, just like there are bad experiences in local relationships. Its all about how much you love each other and how much you want to be together in the end. Good luck.

No. Sorry to burst your bubble, but they only cause the people to constantly feel insecure and lonely. They quite often, more that not, end in breaking up. I had the best relationship that I've ever had in my life,and compared to all the ones that've happened since, still is was the best. But then he moved to another state and we eventually broke up, peacefully, but it still hurt. You still get over it and find someone else.

They tend to work better if there is an END to the distance in site. For instance, one of you finishes college and plans to move, one of you finishes an assignment and plans to move... If it's an open-ended thing, it will be more stressful. You will have trust issues. You will wonder constantly how it will work out or end.

Thanks to the internet, yes it can be a success no matter where you are in the world at any given moment.
Think of it like this: suppose your on a business trip in another country and you have to talk to your friend or spouse, with the internet, you can, instantly.
