I believe...
When you meet someone that touches you so deeply distance is only a number. You will find a way to finally be together. And even if due to your lives and responsibilities that is never to be, you will love that person and a part of them will remain dear to your heart forever.
Take to heart a poem I wrote for a "long distance love".....
From the minute I heard my first love story
I started looking for you,
not knowing how blind that was.
For finding your one love isn’t by chance.
They are in you all along,
And your souls will lead you to each other.
So when the timing is right, you will know.
Leave your heart open and always receptive
And let go of your fears and your failures
These are the consequences of ignoring our inner voice
And letting circumstances chose whom we love
So let go of your self doubt and feelings of inadequacy
These are only the consequences
of following the expectations of others
Success can only come from letting our souls guide our path
They are speaking to us in the sweetest language
Listen with an open heart and you will hear
But if your heart is not truly ready,
Their voices will be drowned out with the echoes
of our own needs and wants and desires.
But all is not lost… for our souls will never give up
Bringing these two hearts together is their one destiny,
And they will try again.
So I will always believe in love...because "The greatest thing that we will ever learn is just to love...and be loved in return. Taken from one of my all time favorite movies...Moulin Rouge.

It takes a special couple to make a long distance relationship work. From personal experience it did work for 5 years and then the strain got too much for the pair of us which eventually meant the relationship dissolved - I tried to blame myself but being in the military and my partner was not was hard. We lived 300 miles away only getting to see each other once or twice a month. He had a good job so I could not expect him to quit and follow me around the world so to speak likewise he would have never asked me to quit the military for him.
I think we were both a little selfish too but were giving in other ways - it is hard being apart especially when you need a hug and want someone just to cuddle upto.
The answer is to work at it and when things become a problem address them as soon as possible - dont push them to one side and hope it resolves itself. Give each other 'me' time - phoning everyday may seem the sweetest thing ever but you end up having nothing to talk about and this can often turn a relationship sour as you will have run out of things to tell each other. Make the most of the time you get together rather than just sitting at home and admiring each other take time to go for walks - relationships can turn sour plainly with losing touch with one another.
Remember to do your share of giving and taking and hope that you wont be apart forever. Good Luck

I had a long distance relationship for 3 years. It didn't work out, but it wasn't to do with the distance. If the two people are right for each other it can work, sure.

Long distance love does exist. Love knows no geographical boundaries. Long distance relationships are another story, however.
I've known more people with failed long distance relationships than those with successful ones. It all depends on the circumstances and the people involved.
If you believe what is in your heart, don't concern yourself with what others think about it.

Long distance love certainly exists, but it is very painful and difficult.
I lived in the U.S. and joined the Peace Corps after college. Several guys who joined with me left girlfriends behind, but two years is a long time. Not one relationship lasted. One girl wrote every day, and when the guy went back to the U.S. they planned to get married. However, six months later, he got married to an American woman he had met in Africa.
A few years after returning to the U.S. I decided to go to Mexico to learn Spanish. While there, I met a lovely woman. I had to return to the U.S., but we kept in contact. Over 2 1/2 years, we wrote letters, kept in touch by phone, and even visited each other a couple of times (this was before email and Internet). Finally we decided that one of us had to move, or we would have to break up.
That was 22 years ago, and we're still married.
