Long distance relationship.. What do you think of it???

I am married to the man of my dreams and I met him on the internet, we had a long distance relationship for about a year brfore I moved to be with him. We lived 14 hours apart and were able to meet twice, we met half way and spent a few days together.
It dose take commitment to stay in a long distance relationship, talking on the internet daily and talking on the phone are not as good as being in person, but we knew we wanted to be together so we made the commitment to make it work.

I have been in a long distance relationship for more then a year now. Yes sometimes its difficult and you have more misunderstandings at times but if you trsut each other then nothing can go wrong in your relationship. It was difficult for both of us for sometimes but slowly w got used to it and now we are ok with it. We live in the same country but diffrent cities and we try to meet whenever we get long leaves from our work otheriwse we are in touch on phone every day. We make sure that we meet up atleast once in a month.

I think they can only work when the lovers or married couple or whatever have been together previously for a very long time. Let's say a husband takes up an assignment in a different country, or a soldier goes to war and leaves his/her sweetheart behind. 'Fresh' or 'new' realtionships don't stand a chance, I think you need the physical presence and contact of the partner, so that the relationship can grow.

Being far apart is okay as long as it's only temporary. Meaning, the two of you should work towards being together or at least closer to each other. That makes it a whole lot easier because it gives you something to look forward to. You know you'll be together some day.

I don't really prefer long-distance relationships because a couple should always be near to one another to give support and provide company for each other. I will feel very very insecure if there I am in a long-distance relationship.

I met my husband in my country, he is foreigner. He came to my country for working. After finish his contract, he went back to his country. During that time, we had long distance relationship. At that time, I did not think much, just work and have fun as usual. However onething i had to do and convince myself - keep this relationship - After one year, we married.

So with my experiences, when you have a long distance relationship. Don't think too much, just work, live and have fun as normal AND ask yourself you want to keep that relationship or not. If you say "YES" - DO IT!

Its quite the complicated raltionship i think. I know the couple would try so hard to keep each other together, but 1 mistake can lead to the couples break uo.

It is very hard to sustain a long distance relationship. Both partners should have a lot of trust, understanding, and love to each other to make the relationship flourish. I once endured a long distance relationship ands it was very hard. I got to miss the guy and for how many times I wished he was there for me. I guess the love that I felt for him wasn't enough that I gave up to temptations..and we broke up. But that had been a part of my past, and I learned from it.

long distance relationships takes a lot of hard work and trust to make it last. of course there's the ups and downs but if you really feel that you can do it then go for it. any good relationship is worth fighting for.
