do long distance relationships actually work?????

Question

what say?? how do u improve them ?? even though u r not in touch every single day?

Answer 1

I dont think so, words can only express so much, touch and feeling go much further, expressing sorrow and joy in text is difficult, whereas laughter and tears in person express a whole new meaning

Answer 2

no!! long distance relationship 90% of the time does not work.you may ask why i say this because i was in a long distance relationship and for three year we talk on the phone and its expensive to do than the other part you miss him alot and when you see your friends and there man all lovely and happy make you get jealous he is not around.and it will make you want to do thing you are not suppost to do in a relationship.find some that live near to you..........it can be improve he is too far away you both can say nice things thing he or she want to her and it not true but you both can.bottom line is it may not work out

Answer 3

Long distance relationship definately works.Because it is emotional bonding which keeps your relationship alive rather then a physical.
Take an example of soldiers at the borders, people working abroad away from their home, or people working away from their home.
love also increases when you are away, but the distance also shoul not be for a long time.

Answer 4

Yes. as long as you love each other and think of each other everyday. honey, if there's a will...there's a way..I know a number of ladies who have long distance relationship...they just held on on to their love, continued communication, (there are a lot of ways: chat, txt, letters, phone) and just know each other more everyday, this will improve your relationship...just remember: the most important is honesty and prayers a lot of it..so far my friends are all happily married and still are together. hope this cheers u up...

Answer 5

It's proven most don't work, but they can work (only it's rare). It takes a lot -- trust, commitment, hard work, stuff like that. Keeping in touch can be through writing letters (snail mails), E-mails, text messaging, via a phone. Arrange visits, see which suits both, I suppose. But patience can be needed, too, if anything.

Answer 6

it does work if you feel that nobody around you is worth dating, or the guys/girls around you don't like you. I mean everybody wants somebody they can talk to, get close with, and love eventually. So yeah it does work. As for personal experience, honestly it never really worked out so well for me. My first long distance relationship was with a girl named Amber, She lived in Vegas, and I lived New York City. But well my problem with her was that she couldn't always come onto the computer often. Maybe once in a while, if I'm lucky, once a week. So thing really started to get boring, so I ended it with her, then over that last summer I meet a girl named Raven in AOL Chatroom, and well let's just say after that I should be telling you that I got the "bad" reason why internet dating doesn't work, because this girl lied about everything, from her picture, to her name, to how she is, everything. I spent 10 months with someone that in the end was somebody completely different. And well last of all is my ex. Well me and Olivia things were going great, and you know what I really do suggest you do long distance relationships, she was just amazing. She was sweet, kind, caring, funny, respectfully, intelligent, extremely beautiful. But the problem was that we meet at the wrong time in our lives, she never was comfortable about our 5 years age difference. Always bothered her, but she tried her best to ignore it, and that she did for about a month. Then well I f*cked up really badly, because her mom found out about me, and her mom doesnt' want her having any boyfriend, she became even more furious when she found out how old I was, and well to make matters worse, I was being a total perv to Olivia back then, because I was so used to being with Raven, because me and Raven were at that stage that we thought we loved each other so much that would could be so open as to almost being ready to exchange revealing photos. And well it's a good thing it ended, because she did eventually show me her real picture. I was so glad that she never did follow through with that. But well yeah the thing is that I know how amazing she was, and the last thing I wanted with Olivia, is if we did become serious eventually, and we did end up meeting and spending the day together, and eventually as time passes we get more intimate, I really didn't want her to just leave me because she found out how really small my d*ck is. So well at the time I thought it was a good idea, but it made matters worse when her mom found out, so well ever since then she started to hate me more and more. And eventually she tried to give it another shot, but then she realized that her new school is going to be full of boys to flirt with, so well she was trying to get me to break it off with her. And I told her I wouldn't do it, so well as soon as I mentioned us going back to being friends she took it right away, no questions asked. I guess to her that was the easiest way to do it. And it worked. I do still love her and miss her, but I know that she doesn't like me in that way anymore, and if anything she probably doesn't even want me as a friend either, because both of those roles involves talking to me, and she could never do that in fear her mother would found out.

So well really all I'm trying to make from my experiences is to show you how each relationship was different, and I got different results from it, so well the whole no contact thing is really hard once you get really serious, but that's when you see how long and how faithful your bf/gf will be. So well there are plenty of cases where long distance relationships resulted in a happy relationship that lead to marriage, three of my friends(all girls), had told me that I should try long distance dating, since no girl around NYC or in my school liked how ugly I was.

So it's up to you, if you know that you can get a guy near you, than don't immedaitly resort to long distance dating, but if you feel that you need more varity in your life, then go for it. It's up to you, and the results will either be good, bad, really good, or really bad. So well remember life is about taking risks, so you never know until you try.

Answer 7

long distance relationship works only when both the ppl have good chances of meeting each other one day..all you need to keep in constant touch until such day arrives

Answer 8

ya they can ,it takes 2 hands to clap so both parties need to maintain constant communication & remind each other how special the other person is

simple gestures like sending cards,emails & small gifts can do the trick

to help keep the love alive & encourage faithfulness,going on short trips together once a while would be ideal too

Answer 9

It depends. As long as when the communication happens, you make it meaningful. I believe that it works if you are busy with a lot of things and both of you are away from potential invasions and temptations. Make sure that you have a shared dream with this partner and keep it strong.

Answer 10

You are not "soconfuse" but "imabitch" and living in Bombay. In the previous week you have put a lot of questions on the same topic and now again after changing your resumes on Yahoo you are again indulged on the same issue.
