Well they have good intentions but they never work.
I speak from unfrotaunte experience and a recovered broken heart.

Disaster. I have known a few people who have had long distance relationships. Some of them couldn't bear being physically away from one another (sometimes causing infidelity) that they break up a few months after. Others have really long-term long distance relationships then when they finally are able to stay together in one place you would think that they would be happier, but on the contrary, they find out quick they do not really know each other that well or both of them have already changed so it doesn't work out. So my piece of advice: Just wait til you're in the same city before you jump into a relationship with someone.

If a couple has been together for years and has a great relationship and has to separate temporarily for work or school, it often works out well. It isn't good for starting a relationship out though. Absence may make the heart grow fonder, but the heart needs a place to start growing from.

If you are talking about the next town over its okay. But if you are talking about across state lines thats not cool. It also depends how long have you been seeing the person? If it is less than a year it will not work. But if you are planning to move closer it will be okay. Ultimately you are the one that knows the person so if you know the person is trust worthy only you can make the decision.

my marriage is long distance sometimes, when i have to leave my husband behind to work in england when i go back to my home in america for a couple months at a time. we always manage to catch up with each other on one side of the pond or the other and actually spend the majority of our time together. long distance relationships can work if you're both willing to make the effort and sacrifices necessary to make it work.

Its hard. It has to be really based on trust and you have to control your jealousy. Not worth it unless there is a plan to eventually live in the same city and rarely works out.

It didn't work for me, but my co-worker started dating her husband as a long distance relationship from San Francisco to San Diego. They met through friends. After graduation from college and a couple of years of work he moved to San Francisco and they have been happily married for almost 30 years.

What eyes can't see ,the heart won't grief, I do not think that it works, you get so used to absence at the end and it won't hurt you anymore, a relationship is caring and sharing, you need someone to talk to all the time, and help you when you are down, that is difficult when your partner is not there, you need to be held, you need the touch to comfort you, not just a sms or email,

Good luck

it really depends on the people. my husband and i have done the long distance thing with the military.
my sis is dating a guy in the navy and he's 1000 miles away and they are talking about getting married in a year or two...
but I have heard about people who don't do so good so far away from their b/f or g/f....

You need to elaborate on this question. Have you known this person for some time and they have moved away? Did you meet this person online? Who is this person? You are going to get a lot of answers that don't pertain to the question you are asking.
Sorry..

they are hard to maintain, with time u might lose the spirit as u do not have the person present in front of u when u might need them.

if u r together now, avoid living in diffeerent cities.
