The other posts here are very useful for you.
For me, I encourage the use of webcams whenever you can chat online. It simply does wonders for communication along with voice chat. Doing a mutual activity online is great too.
I suggest talking about realistic future goals and expectations together. It gives you something to look forward too and potentially prevents some conflicts.
My most useful advice: When you find yourself getting frustrated and mad about something... stop and ask yourself, "What is the most important thing for me right now?" I believe you'd find yourself saying, "her". She must be worth it right? Best wishes.

I'd like to post a question? do you LOVE her? How deep is your love for her? It may sound corny to you but thats the measure of it. It doesnt matter how distant the relationship is but what matters is the love you have for each other for without that you can not survive anything even if your just neighbors. There are couples who have survive the long distance relationship because they have the will to overcome the lonliness without each other because they love each very deeply. Since its just a 4hrs away from your destination then for me I dont considered it a long distance because I have a girlfriend I see everday after work with a 4 to 5 hrs travel..I get tired indeed but I want to see her face and hug her before I go to sleep..It doesnt matter if she's not the first person I see in the morning, as long as I see her every night. If you love the person you will do anything just to see and be with her no matter.. Well I hope this help and goodluck...

Well always in any relationship keep good open communication between the 2 of you and have you thought about moving closer to be together or her moving closer to you if this is not an option at this point it would have to be a thought for later or it will probably never work and then why should you waste time
But be honest about anything and everything if your going out and your not going to be home then be honest and up front don't allow suspicion or thoughts of infidelity rule either of your minds and allow jealousy to ruin your relationship
Communication is the very key in any relationship

well if u love each other , it definately works . believe me , there would be quite a lot of quarrel since the distance is quite far away , me myself is in this long distance relationship , it's quite tough sometimes because we tend to quarrel about our surroundings whether he woo on other chicks or i got hooked on another guy . however if we really get together , things turn so sweet . well just need to advice that if u really wanted to be with the girl , have your patience , dont blame that distance are something to make u love her less , yet trust each other .

cam on cam sesseion every night
exchange cards every month ( the date of the month you guys met and i don't mean e-card. i mean real card)
play online games together while chatting.
( i recommend Second Life. this site is made just for couples)
be loyal to each other.
take a lot of pics and share them on messenger.
when you guys meet in person. do something romantic
( candle lit dinner, give her flowers, walk on the beach or park, a little surprise gift, stay at a romantic hotel room etc)
well. long distance is not that bad.
at least you guys can keep it fresh that way.
good luck !!!

okay...genrally in a long distance relationship...u sometimes end up having trust problems...
but i am glad to see you guys aint like that at all...!
well to make a long distance relationship work is to try and keep in contact with her as much as possible...
you need to open the lines of communication....
even nice surprises work actually...!
drive down to her place...and surprise her...
and another thing is being in a long distance relationship is like being single...but "not really" single...
so all you guys need is a cup full of fidelity and affection and care...!
all the best..!

communication ALWAYS!!!
my bf and i just broke up cause he was too "busy" to communicate, pick up the phone and call
you have to remember you're not living down the street or around the corner. its not like you can just stop by, so the only thing you have is the phone (communication)
