ppl in long distance relationship only pls!!!?

Question

What do you find is the hardest part about your relationship? How far is it? How long have you been together? How did you meet? Have you ever met in person? How do you cope with the pain and struggles?

I met my boy's friend on neopets :P from there his friend gave him my email address and we started talking :)
He lives in Ontario, I live in Colorado. We've been together 10 months now. I just returned 3 weeks ago from our first in person meeting. And now he's coming here for all of July.
What I find hardest is just not being able to spend real time with him. He hates sitting infront of a computer all the time so he goes out a lot so we don't get to spend a lot of time together. And not being able to touch him. It tears at my heart. I want to be able to give my boy a hug every now and then, you know?
We cope by using webcam! We can't call each other (too expensive) so we video call a lot! It's good cuz we can see each other every day!

Please share your stories!!!

I'm not breaking up with him so don't try. This is real I'm sure of it. We've been together 10 months and we're not about to quit. Long distance relationships can work despite what anyone says.

We've been through a lot together. And we think that the distance has actually made our relationship stronger. I've never loved anyone more than him. We have plans for our future together.

Please if you're not going to answer my QUESTIONS then don't answer at all. I just asked for personal interest and so ppl in my situation can share their stories.

Answer 1

I know exactly how you feel. My boyfriend of 1 year lives in Georgia and i live in Washington state. Being apart is hard but as long as i know he loves me and that we will be together some day I'm OK. Just hold on to how much you care about him and never lose hope that someday maybe you'll will be able to live together happily.Its worth it i promise.

Answer 2

Well I just got dumped by my long-distance gf this week. We were together for 4 months and hadn't met yet. It's the small things that kill long-distance-relationships. She got mad because I was taking too long to respond to her instant messages the other day and totally blew up about it. Up until this week everything seemed great to me but it's obvious that she had some underlying issues. We really do love each other but the distance can do some nasty things to your mind. She broke up with me over the chat thing and completely rationalized it in an email by saying that she wanted my "undivided attention" and going on to say that we had been growing apart for the past month. She even admitted that she had "probably over-reacted." As far as I knew she was completely happy but obviously she had some issues. I think it overwhelmed her and she just found an excuse to break it off and feel safe from hurt. She even wants to keep talking to me and says she is not mad at me and kept repeating that she loved me but it would never work. I also live in Colorado and was planning to visit her up in Tennessee soon. I guess she just wasn't ready to totally commit to me like I was but in the end it was still the best experience I've ever had with anyone. I would do it again in a heartbeat. I would never consider getting back with her unless she realized that she was having personal issues and completely sabotaging us with her insecurites. But I'm pretty sure that is not going to happen since she has completely rationalized breaking up with me because I take too long to respond in chat. I did the webcam thing and phone conferences and everything too but I guess in hindsight it was a little one sided. I sent her tons of pics and she sent me one. I called her plenty times and she never called me. I was kind of the driver in this relationship and it worked out okay. She is a very sensitive girl and I was very good at making her feel comfortable about getting closer and taking new steps. In the end though I wasn't able to completely ease her insecurites and she just couldn't overcome it. My advice to you is to just be happy. If he makes you happy then just be happy. Don't find reasons to be sad or angry or any negative feelings. As long as you are both working to get together that's all that matters. My relationship ended because she just couldn't stay happy and it just blew up and killed the whole thing. Best of luck to you.

i do no longer why human beings save putting of their minds that long distance relationship won't be able to artwork. diverse human beings have their minds set that way and don't bypass away any area to be open to something new. i does no longer recommend you to renounce your relationship basically because of the fact of time and distance, for time is going with the help of quicker than you will be able to think of, and you may extremely lose a love you will no longer discover everywhere else. that's what i've got faith: in case you extremely love one yet another and desire to spend something of your lives mutually, distance won't be able to be a concern. it certainly relies upon on no count number if your relashionship has an excellent foundation. you ought to might an excellent thank you to speak and plan cases to fulfill in the time of the 12 months.
