They could, depending on the level of honesty and commitment by both people. Although, it will be hard, and involve more effort on your parts. Depends on how serious you both are. And of course, hopefully that would be a temporary thing, as things progress, you'd more than likely eventually move in together.

Any relationship works if you want it to. Well for the most part. If you both want it to work then it should work. With long distance relationships the most difficult part is trust. Even living with a person can be difficult there is no such thing as an easy relationship there will always be something that is hard. If you love the person then yes the long distance thing should work. Assuming you both put in the time and the effort and you both have the same goals in mind. The key is communication.

It depends on the people in the relationship. If they really do care about eachother, and are commited to the relationship entirely, then I think it is possible.
However, when one (or both) partners in the relationship don't take it too seriously, they are more likely to cheat. Don't forget, if you live far away from your partner, it may be very tempting for you and your partner to cheat on eachother.
If the couple communicates with each other often, either through e-mails, phone calls, text messages, or snail mail, it will help keep the relationship more "alive".
The bottom line is this: If you love this person, and they love you, you'll be able to make things work out. All it takes is patience and a will to stay commited and responsible.

It can only work if you have two people who are very independent and happy being alone most of the time. If that's the way someone is, then I don't understand why they'd want to be in any sort of relationship to begin with.
You also have to ask yourself, "If this turns into something that I want full time, am I willing to uproot my life and move to where this other person lives?" Don't assume that this other person would move to be with you. They have family, friends, and a life established where they live just like you do.

Long distance relationships usually do not work out in the end. The couple grows apart, and in the long run forget what brought them together in the first place.
But, of course, there are exceptions.

Yes they do... but only if there is a lot of trust and patience. I'm in CA, and my man is in NY. We've been together for over a year now. It's definitely hard at times... but you have to be understanding. But, it definitely can work.

Almost always NO.... It is a waste of time trying to make them work (although it usually take awhile to figure that out). Cut your losses, break it off clean and start over.

It depends on how long you guys are going to be apart. If it's more than a few months then I think it won't work.
