Phone calls, webcam, letters, and honesty in all areas. You must also spend time together, not as a holiday, but truly exposing your good AND bad traits. Long distance relationships can work, but only if each person stays transparent. If the communication and honesty/trust isn't there while dating, it won't be there after marriage. Visting England and visting America is so much fun, but a marriage doesn't come with a guarantee that if you get past customs you will make it. Questions: how do you both handle anger? How do you handle differences in race, religion, customs and traditions? Good luck. I dated my Dutch beau for 4 years, moved to Holland and married him. We are married 10 years now, and have moved back to California. But it wasn't easy and isn't easy...we had to stop pretending that we were on a holiday. :)

long distance is expensive and difficult in general. Visiting should be arranged by both parties whenever available or possible. Online time and phone calls help too. With technology today, you really dont have to wait to communicate anymore. I would arrange with the person rules about the communication thing because you both might get sucked up into just talking instead of living life.
A long distance relationship is basically like this:
1. Live your life like a single person
2. Act like a taken person.
You have to live your life as if you are single to keep your mind occupied between visits, but you have to act like you have some one in your life (Even if they arent present), meaning all the couple rules still apply.
Its fun, but hard.

Well First off... Good Luck! Being Faithful is the easy part. Being apart is the hard part. Is that what you want? Is that what He wants? So... Second, the way to deal with it is dealing with being a part from each other. I'm sorry. I don't know what to say. If you want, you can write me at blindriptide@yahoo.com or visit my 360 page.

First, it is difficult, but not impossible. If each of you will get a Skype phone (internet) you can both talk and see each other talking for free.

I hope this helps. The voice is crystal clear and so is the photo if you spend a little money on mic and webcamera.

talk as much as you can, write, email, and visit as often as you can. trust yourself and him/her, and hope for the best. pray about it and ask God to lead your decisions. always keep a open communication because that is the key to survive any relationship. and before you end any conservation always say i love you it kinda seals the deal every time good luck

Define the relationship as friendship, pen pal, etc. Find someone local for a romantic relationship.

You don't. Unless you have real plans to get together within a year or so and have a physical relationship, you just don't.
