wanted a long distance relationship, but it happened. It's not like I was searching for someone in a different state, but we've known each other for about 7 months and our feelings haven't subsided for each other AT ALL! We have talks on the phone and both our parents know. ...And soon, we'll be able to make phone calls over the internet. You get it? I didn't mean for this to happen, but it did and we love each other. Now, this is the best time of my life. We're both patient. When I first started talking to her, she instantly started to like me, even though she had a boyfriend. We both HAD feelings for other people, but those have subsided. I know that there's no one here like her and what should I do? If you're gonna criticize, I'd rather you not answer.

I think its coo as long as you love her... and eventually you will either break up or move to the same state. Im in love with my boyfriend and even though i dont like long distance relationships i would have one for him

Two things that would help me answer would be knowing a close proximity and age of you and if you met this girl in person or only online.
If you could, during winter break take a road trip and find her. If not, there is no reason you shouldn't continue your relationship, but it is definitely a risky business. Eventually, you will get tired of not actually BEING with your gf.
I had a similar thing happen. One of my best friends who is a girl moved from where we live California all the way to Virginia. We still talk, but it is hella hard to keep in touch for such a long distance.
Same goes for you, if you guys have a lot of time to "hang out" online and on the phone, then your relationship has potential even through the long distance. But this long distance relationship is truly not advisable, but still plausible and possible.
Can you legally drive by yourself (or with somebody) and see her, or are you even not old enough for that yet?

i'm sorry, but your friend's crazy to think that you're stupid and insane, when you live in Missouri, and your girlfriend in TX. you're not crazy---at all. i have a long distance relationship too, 2 hrs apart, and we've been together almost a yr and a half now. if you love each other, and that love can bigger each day, and it can stretch, so that no unit of distance can measure it, then yes, it can last. me and my boyfriend both met at church camp, and both live in TX. i wasn't looking for a boyfriend either, least of all a long distance one, but we caught each other's eye, and there was no stopping our love. (it seems like none of the nice guys are down where i live, or go to the school where i go). what do you mean what should you do?! you should do what you've been doing---keep talking, stay together! to h*ll with what your friend says! (sorry) if your love is strong for each other, then long distance relationships can work. i congratulate both of you, for staying together so long, and keeping your love strong, especially since you live in different states! and yes, i do totally understand where you're coming from. good luck to both of you, and merry christmas!

Dont let your friend run you down about it..I had a whole family thinking I was nuts and that my situation wasnt going to work. I lived just outside of KC and 8 years ago I started chatting on the internet to a Brit who lived in Amsterdam! Now, I am married to him and living in Germany..dont think yours is an impossible situation. A long distance relationship is difficult but not impossible .

I'm not sure. I guess I would have to say whatever works for the both of you. If things are going good then ...great! But there may come a time when one of you may have enough of it or maybe one of you may want to take the relationship one step further and get more serious and move near the other..so be ready for whatever happens.
