I started dating this guy last year in November. We'd flirted a lot the year before but we weren't really up for a serious relationship.He moved a couple of weeks after we'd officially started going out (we're miles apart now) and it's been 7 months since I last saw him.We talk on the phone daily and send each other e-mails.
I just want to know how long we can pull this off?Is this going to be a forever thing or will distance drive a wedge between us?
I really do love him but I just need to know.

If you haven't seen him in 7 months I would say that you should just consider him to be a friend - not a boyfriend. Why don't you tell him that you don't want to settle for a phone/email relationship and see if he has any suggestions. If neither of you are willing or able to move closer to each other, I would let him know that you plan on dating. I would then let the communication with this guy dwindle down - I mean, you won't really have time to talk to him on the phone and email if you are out meeting new people. Good luck!

Although i think that long distance relationships tends to make you miss that person more and appreciate the time that y'all do have together it takes a strong person to endure it. Because absence does make the heart grow fonder. And i feel that the anticipation of the next time your gonna see each other and what it will be like would make it all worth it but that's just the way i feel and i hope everything works out good for the 2 of you. Good Luck!

Only you can answer that question,because you're the only one who knows how you feel inside and just how much you are willing to fight to keep the relationship going. Forever is a very long time and it depends on a two-way commitment.You both have to be willing to stick it out to the end.Distance will only drive you apart if you let it.You seem to have a good thing going here,don't let it go so easily.

I am sure if you meant a lot to one another that some time in the 7 months you have been apart you would have arranged to meet up somehow. It all sounds a bit strange to me. Are you sure he just doesn't want you as a friend as he may be feeling a bit lonely in this new place? Neither of you are moving heaven and earth to see one another!

if you love him enough it will work...but he has to try just as hard as you. im in a long distance relation ship too it kinda sucks because we cant see each other on a daily basis like normal relationships but we do just fine. i will be going to see him this weekend (yay!) and i cant wait. i think its really sweet/cute and very mature if some one can love you even though your miles away rather than minutes apart. keep trying and that "wedge" you speak of wont get there ^_< hope this helps you alot

the point you ask - the worry oyu have tells you you have wedge there - you just dont want to it to be there - you sound almost as tho you dont have faith there too.
the wedge is there by the sounds of it.
in truth long distance can work. not oft - not for many. but it can.
the qualitys of those involved is a must here.

You say you 'need to know' but really no one can predict the future; only you have the potential to answer your question. If it's hard now, it will only get harder the longer you spend apart. If you love him, it will work. Distance is a physical threat to relationships and can alter people. xxx

If you've not seen him for 7 months - Why not????? Either you or he should have made the effort - otherwise your life will be on hold - go see him and see what happens

you properly get back with each other but take it easy on things and in a month or two you could get back with him but don't mess around like you did before other wise he will not go out with you any more in his live
