Answer 1

Wow...it depends on how bad you want it to actually work and how much you love that person. For example, my fiance and I haven't seen each other since February 06 and most of our relationship has been long distance. When I say most...I mean over 50%. It's also hard not knowing how he's doing all the time, not being able to call, and just having to wait for him to call...the worrying I used to do was UNBELIEVABLE! I've calmed down a little and I stay busy...I try to work as much as possible.

It's work to maintain a relationship with the distance, without the physical touch, or the simple things. Sometimes we talk about just going to the grocery store together or going out to eat together. However, I trust that man with my life...he would never cheat on me. In my heart I know that's true, and vice versa. I love him with my entire heart! The trust and staying faithful is not a problem for us at all. I have never questioned this one time...neither has he.

I think a long distance relationship adds in something that other relationships don't...more of a test. Can you handle the ability to remain faithful to another human being and not touch anyone else (nor let it happen to you) for months at a time, for us...almost a year. It takes strong people to keep this relationship going. We're strong and we do it with no problem.

There are a lot of times I wish he were here with me, but our time is coming. We'll be together again soon though....I can't wait!! I hope that helps!

Well i used to have a long distance relationship. You go on living life as you normally would, and don't hold back from living life to the fullest just because your far from the person you love. You can always call them, save money to visit them as much as possible, or send them letters or presents through the mail, but most importantly, you need good communication and let each other know what's going on in your lives, if not neither of you would ever know because you don't live with each other. Lastly, be honest.

Answer 3

LDR can work. You have to have the ultimate trust and patience to deal with one though. It is rough, but you never know what will happen to put things back in place with your person. You talk all the time and see each other as often as possible and pray that this guy/girl is the "Mr. or Mrs. right" for you forever.

Answer 4

well it depends on how much they love eachother the fact that its long distance doesnt make the relationship any more screwed up its just that they dont have any of the advantages of a close one such as

kissing,hugging,touching, ETC

but like i said it just depends how much each side is willing to give to make it work.

and to that last thing about not having happy endings. mine did were not together but were friends good friends. just needed a little more then the whole distance could supply and we agreed on that

Answer 5

You go see each other every chance you get. if not the relationship tends to fade away. Its really harder than a relationship with someone near by . you have to work harder at it. I guess if the couple really loves one another nothing would stand in the way of true happiness

Answer 6

if it is for a short period of time it can work, internet helps alot, webcams, phonecalls, etc... but for something longer in my experience it ends bad... someone loses the interest first, after a long period of no kisses, no hugs, no life together everything ends... sad but true.
