I think that we as a society are way too quick to sy the words "I love you" I think that people feel that it is love just cuz there are butterflies in their stomache. Over the past 4 years I have had 4 girlfriends, all of which I said I love you too. But as soon as each was gone I realised it was not love at all. |
THATS BECAUSE THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE IS INADEQUATE!!!! hell..Im as Canadian as u get. In english, what is there that can be easily used between like and love? NOTHING. Try French for example...sooo many inbetween steps. Really what we need is new words to solve this problem. |

I'm in a long distance relationship that works very very well, it's been 1 year and a half now
I live in France and her in Detroit (i think i beat the distance record of 800 mille :) )
So for those who say LD relationships can't work...just say that they don't or migft not work for you, don't generalize because that can work perfectly fine
My girlfriend and I are so much in love, i've been one month over her house last summer in the US, and she came to France this year and stayed 2 months and a half...it was so wonderful..
And she just left today....it's so hard...i feel so bad...but we know it's so much worth it, because we intend to marry next year and i'll move to the US :)
So LD relationships are always possible, only your love and your devotion for this other person count, and it's so rewarding...
I precise that we met online too, but LD relationships that start online are also possible, see ? |
dawwwwww :p how sweet :) my congratz man :) hope u will always be happy :)
my side of da story, well 2 me i never had 1, but i guess everything is possible, ATBsportsline is very tru, it all depends, its about love, nothing else 2 me, otherwise i dont see a long distance, da gurl most a da same mutial feeling as me, etc. :) |

OMG i love you.. i live in holland.. we can make things work right?
Well i have this girl.. who is really great.. and doesnt live around the corner.. Guess ill have to find out if itll work..
Ya can always have @ least the weekend for the 2 of you.. you could go out partying.. even bring your friends (friends are probably even more important than having a girl)
ANd the time when you are together is more special than when you see each other every day..
ya can do great trips.. etc.. way cool.. :) |

I've been in 2 long distance relationships, still in my 2nd, she's only 3 hours drive away.....It's alright.....it really tests ur feelings for one another when u think about it......ur far away from each other if u really love her, then it'll all work out as we have seen from some posts in this thread.....if there is a will there is a way!
but I also agree with other opinions, it is pretyt painful that u can't see ur girl anytime u like....but u get used to dealing with it for a while....just keep ur mind on other things.......and I agree that if u r in a long distance relationship u shouldn't make it public.....personally if i find a close enough girl to the one i got here, I'd start thinkin!!
Thats about it!!.....and congrats on the marriage thing!!!:D |

Thank you very much for your nice words Blue Neon and Abbas, that cheers me up and i need that especially today, very kind :)
And i wanted to say that when you're deeply in love with someone in a LD relationship, well, to make it public allows people to see that it's possible, because it's so annoying to hear all the time "it's not possible, it can't work, you should focus on someone closer than you"
I heard that so often, but i've been fully determined and i don't regret it now :)
Will you guys help a poor french man become an american starting next year ? hehe
And how about promoting trance a bit more in the US? My fiancee likes trance a lot too, that's very nice :p |

| i have been in a long distance relationship for a while now. the thing is that its not always long distance and we are apart pnly for the summer. But some awful things can happen in four months and they have. we lived together, now he doesn't wanna love with me. there is always the mistrust is one person happens to be less then truthful. its so hard to get over things because when you are eight hours away, you can't just talk everything through on the phone. there are coversations that have to be done face to face. i hate being away!!! the biggest mistake i ever made was coming to my home town for the summer!!! !!!! why did i have to do that??? for money. i don't ever wanna worry about money again because that's what causes all the problems in the world. |

i've been going out with my boyfriend for a year, and then he moved to New Jersey and lived there for a year. we visited each other every 3-4 weeks or so, but only for a couple of days every time. it was absolutely horrible ! if i knew from the beginning how hard it would be i wouldn't have done it, cause it sooooooooooooo hard and depresing. but now we live together and are probably getting married next summer
:cool: |

...in the end, i'd say they really don't work (they can only work for so long....) they always start out strong, because of the absence makes the heart grow fonder thing (all you think about are the good times and good traits...).. but after awhile, it gets expensive, and causes more heartaches than anything else...
it just gets expensive with the long distance phone calls, plane tickets and/or gas for car travel, lots of time, etc.... at first you are keeping in contact all the time, so it feels great and such, but towards the end, the communication gets less and less, then suspicions arise ...

yep, that sums it up. I once was in a LDR (LongDistanceRelationship) and I experienced all of that. I guess its hard to either make a commitment (move to be together) or just say good bye (best in the long run).
It's kinda reminds me that its easy not to be truthful. How many times have you said "I'll call you sometime" with no intention of doing so. Why do it today when you can wait until tomorrow. Anyways that my 2cents |
