I am with this guy... which I really love him and he lives in Texas and I live in Iowa... its not that far but still is that a good thing or a bad thing? I just thought I would get other people's perspective and see what they might have to say about it... No we have not met yet but we are working on that right now..

Ok I am in a long distance relationship too. He is from Florida and I am from Puerto Rico. I love him to death and I have never meet a man so genuine like him. No I have never meet him in person but we are so honest and open that I feel I have meet him before. I have plans of continuing my graduate education next year. I want to move a state near where he lives, and see what happens.
It works only if you two are open and honest with each other. I have confronted him about everything, and we had fights all the time because I couldn't trust him in certain things. In the Internet is difficult to trust people but he has let me know in many ways that he is being honest and if we were together right now he would do anything for me.
This depends on the person really. Some people have had bad experiences because they haven't taken the time to know this person well, or find clues to see if he is honest. You have to be smart with this, and have a plan a, plan b, if it doesn't work.
Also this only works if you plan to see each other in the future and you are patient, if not the relationship is going to fade quickly.
Just listen to your heart. I have had beautiful experiences where I feel in my heart that God put that person in my life on purpose, so we can be together in the future. We need eachother very much, and I am going to work hard to be next to that man.

well, i've been in a long distance relationship before. but it was with a girl i knew who had moved away, we weren't together until after she moved but i do think it's important that who your with be someone you've met in person. however on the overall, i'd say long distance relationships are hard and easy. for me it was easy because i have confidence and am happy enough having one girl love me. i don't really want the hassle of two gfs. it's hard mostly because of other people. there will always be insecure women telling you you can't know if he's cheating. i think it's because they're jelous someone is confident enough to trust a boyfriend. and you will have people telling you constantly that long distance relationships never work and you should end it. me i never gave a dam what anyone else said so it's easy for me to ignore them. it's harder for women you guys are used to accepting what the world tells you about yourself. you either can or can't handle it and it won't be easy unless you actually like this person and trust they like you as well.

I don't think it's a good thing but it all depends on how deep ur relationship is. If u haven't even met yet I don't think there's a strong connection between u 2. I personally don't believe that u can truly love a person without meeting them.

Hey it looks you love Andrew and he loves you back a lot! Don't give up on him, and try to work this thing out. Love is hard to find. To find it in the same city is even harder. Thank God it still is the same country and culture. Why don't you just buy a ticket and see each other. Do it this weekend, life is short.
Best luck!

Really it is neither good nor bad depending on your expectations.
Keeping in mind that they don't work for lasting relationships and are doomed from the start, you can work something out from there. If it's just a fling, or one of you are willing to relocate they can work.
Your choice.

They can be good and bad. Being away from each other makes u want to see each other more, but too, being away from each other also makes you tempted to get with other guys because u know that ur boyfriend isn't going to find out...so i guess what im trying to say is that it is what u make it...if you really love each other then u can make it work.

It depends if you are really willing to work at it. Long distance relationships almost never work because they end up finding someone else. If you really love him then you would wait until you see each other again.

i think it can go both ways. but i prefer good. cause sometimes long distance relationship r stronger than close ones. long distance relationships shows no matter how far the other lover is u still love them and care for them and think about them hoping praying one day u two will meet face to face
