The only good thing is that you make the most of the time you have together.
As for the "They never work" answers - RUBBISH, I'm living proof that they do
And the "You can cheat and not get caught out" answerers, you are the sort of people who would cheat no matter what.

Nothing is good about a long distance relationship. I won't say that it can't ever work and it can teach you to communicate. Simply because most of the time all you can do is talk. But over all it sucks and puts a lot of strain on the relationship. Unless one person moves to be with the other the relationship won't survive.

Quite frankly, I find it hard to find good things about it. From my understanding it teaches the people involved to find other ways of connecting other than face to face/daily interaction.
I know of at least two couples who have had it due to school/other obligations. One girl said she and her significant other connected on a much deeper level than if they had been able to see each other more often. (They typically visited each other once a month or so.)
It also reveals a lot about the nature of people. Another girl felt a sense of relief because her bf wasn't able to be with her 24/7 (she was feeling smothered). They were both able to set schedules for couple time and she had the opportunity to focus on school and what she wanted to do post-school. The bf remained clingy and made an effort to surprise her for Thanksgiving, which made her happy as she wasn't expecting it.
This was different from the first girl's bf, who basically couldn't deal with the separation and so wouldn't call, wouldn't write, wouldn't do anything because he didn't want to reminded of their separation.
I hear that if you can do it, it can strengthen the relationship, but it can also just as likely break the relationship as well.

They're hard to make work, but if both people are dedicated to the relationship, then it can work. I'm in a long distance relationship right now. I agree with a couple of the things that other people have said. You have a greater appreciation of the time you two get together. Also, it helps you maintain your individuality.

It won't work. I've tried more than once. The only good thing about a long distance relationship is the GREAT sex you have when you finally get it after not getting it for so long.

Nothing, I'm talking to a guy now. He seems like he would be the idea boyfriend but, he live to far. That's why I like him and treat him as a friend. So long distance may work for some people but not everyone.

Its only good when there is hope that one can come to live with the other. Over a long time, with no chance of making it together in one place, its a pretty sad way to live and love.

Not a whole lot to be honest. Maybe a greater appreciation for one another when the couple is together, but thats about it.
