Who's in one? How do you make one work?

Was in one for 3 years untill about a month ago. They suck. I wouldn't recommend it. It was great while we were together, but I'd never do it again.

Long distance relationships never work. I was going out with a girl here in Texas and her dad was in the Army. They moved to Utah and we tried to make it work. Was over in about a month. :mad:

well im gonna have to agree with everyone andd say ya they suck. a long distance relationship, to me, is like a hour away. that wold take 2 hours out of your day just driving there and driving back, plus 40 hours a week or work, plus atleast 50 hours of sleep, how may hours are really in a week to spare on driving? even if you just talk on the phone i see it as a useless relation ship
thats my opionion on it

Tried one..they don't work...or at least they don't work if the other person makes no effort :rolleyes:

Thats what I *used* to think
U need to hav trust first & formost... i've been in one for almost a yr now, we talk everyday & don't go longer then 2 mths. w/ out seeing each other. But i'm moving down there eventually.
Then again i also don't think a fairly new relationship will last, me & him hav a history 2gether, we've been 2gether for 4 yrs now.
this was at his going away party back in august 2003:

i don´t know how a long distance relationship works, because i´ve never had to be in one, but unfortunately there´s a big possibility of my relationship having to turn into one. he´s going to college next fall, probably away, and unless it´s within reasonable distance to my school, there´s no way i could go with him until at least after i graduate, and knowing him he prolly will go somewhere far...but i have a LOT of faith in him and our relationship, and although it´s scary, i think we can make it work out. we also have a history together, 3 and a half years so far, this is just one more hurdle we have to overcome.
its also really good to hear that someone else is making it work, gives me hope :)

well don't get me wrong... i was never plannning on moving down there, so we broke up in Sept. 2003 when he left. But we still kept in touch & remained friends, he dated other females & was actually in a relationship when i went down for stuntwars in Feb. 2004.
When i saw him for the 1st time i realized i still had feelings for him & he felt the same, so we decided that we were gonna make it work regardless. And I'm hopefully moving down there by the end of next mth :)
i think everything happens for a reason, & i thank god this happened because although it's been hard i DEFINITELY think it has made our relationship far more stronger & less superficial then it would'a been if he had stayed. We don't take each other for granted anymore.

yeah, i think the taking eachother for granted thing is something we learned while he was in basic training for the army (this previous summer, 2.5 months), so i def know what you mean there. i think we´re a pretty strong couple, despite some things...i know it will be hard, but i think we can make it
They've never worked in my case..... sucks too

wouldnt really call it long distance but adam and i were a couple hours apart the first year of our relationship. it made it that much better when we seen each other (it wasnt easy w/ school and winter w/ the roads). i think its when we started living together that we had problems! haha :p

I've been in them and I must say, obviously, they didn't work...BUT, I sorta just recently got into one...he's about an hour and a half away during the week, but home every weekend, so it isn't that bad...I work, have school, and some extra curricular activities to keep my time occupied, so the next thing I know, he's home on Friday afternoon... :D He's in the Guard after 4 years in the AF, so there is always the possibility he'll be far far away :( But, you deal with that when it comes your way...I don't think he'll be volunteering to go overseas anymore though cuz of his son and now me, so in January he may be moving back, but he might not...just take it day by day and enjoy the time you do have...I don't think I've EVER talked on the phone as much as I have the past few weeks...here's a pic :)

Well PBK's and Heathers has worked out so far....
U need to hav trust first & formost... i've been in one for almost a yr now, we talk everyday & don't go longer then 2 mths. w/ out seeing each other. But i'm moving down there eventually.
Then again i also don't think a fairly new relationship will last, me & him hav a history 2gether, we've been 2gether for 4 yrs now.
this was at his going away party back in august 2003:
wow, I didnt know you 2 were together....
There goes my plans of someday being with you :(

y would u? this is the 1st time i've ever talked about our relationship & still i didn't even mention his name. i'm not1 of those girls that goes around gossiping about our relationship. I don't go around posting after him & saying stuff like "yeah baby, that's why i love you .... ", to make sure EVERYONE knows i'm his girl, or talk about our sex life, or make my name similar to his, or post up a pic of him in my avatar, or write in my profile ride: "so and so", i think people that do that R jus immature, childish, & most of all insecure.. Plus these forums R-4 talk'n about stunt'n. other girls hit on him as other guys hit on me but i trust him so i don't feel the need ot mark my territory, lol. :cool:
There goes my plans of someday being with you :(
and thats funny nags that u would even write that jokingly, considering what u once wrote about me in the men's bathroom on SL. :mad: don't think i wasn't told about that, but i'll let that slide. :rolleyes: :p

yeah long distance relationships arent to bad depending on how far you are from the person. like now my girl is only 4 hours away so thats a weekend drive. sometimes if helps the relationship because if makes you appreciate the time you have with that person.

I honeslty don't have a clue what I said about you in there, but it's funny. My whole goal in there was to have everyone come back to me yelling and so far it's worked.. People take shit too seriously :)

I hear what your sayin' Bigzell. I think that I'm in love with Gixxie, and she lives in Blacksburg. I haven't told her yet, and we'll also have to deal with the fact that I'm a dog and I van't drive so see her. I think it'll work. I can't drive, but I can type. P.S. Manzell, What's up with Gixxie??? :)
