I'm totally in love with my American "girl" friend & over Christmas discovered she's as crazy about me as i am her.She's gone home to the US for New Year & won't be back til January.She's only gone 30 hours & i'm missing her already.
Trouble is her work keeps her in the States for a while every so often.Since we've now found out we love each other i really want to make this work.To say i adore her is an under-statement.Is anyone out there who is keeping a long-distance romance going successfully?
I'll likely end up moving to the US if it means us to be together.But for now i have to make do with this trans-Atlantic thing.She's from Georgia & i'm stuck here in Britain.Can someone give me any advice on how to keep this relationship going successfully? I sure as hell don't want to lose her - she's my world.Any tips will be v. much appreciated.
Thanks.From Jackie aged 28 acting like a 17-year old!!

well loveing each other is a good start.my suggestion is when ur together make the time count... get too know each other completly before u move too america..long distance relationships dont always workout but as long as you stick together you should be fine...remember its the little things that count in any relationship. a simple kiss or those three words i love you can only take u so far.. too keep someone u love u have too show them u love bye ur actions and not just words. advice take none from nobody just be urself thats the guy shes fallen in love with just rember the little things do count and make the most of your time together.im sure if u do that ur both be fine.

I cannot think of any good advice here. You know, there proabally have been lovers seperated by great lengths before and probably will be again; but, still as the poet says: "none can rely upon a love that lacks its proper food..." Oh, yes, proximity is a thing much to be desired.
Poetry has always helped me in times like these... "these fragements I have shored against my ruin." ( they won't hold for long... ) What is that one about the guy who is locked up... "iron bars do not a prison make..." (but, they hold most of us... ) So, I am supposing unless you are exceptional that you should do something other than wait for the end.

keep the communication going so that she knows that you're there... and if things get serious enough, talk about how you guys are going to meet regularly and continue the relationship. you'll need to work to a plan where the long distance is no longer there (i.e. move closer to each other). the problems with LDRs is sometimes expectations build up that really shouldn't exist, and when you two get together you might run into some disappointments. keep it real!

if there is this much of lovge u can make it work for a while .
long distance can be managed if both want it and in ur case seems to be that way .
so chear up and enjoy the "gipsy" time for a while . you will be thinking about in the future and laugh and it will bond u too more.
good luck and all the best

To keep a long distance relationship going, have a short disatance relationship going too. So long as the hsort dist knows you're thinking of the long dist person when you're $hagging

look forward to seeing her again - don't dwell on not seeing her every single moment of your time! think about her thinking about you - it'll work :-)
