I hope not. But, should that happen, I'm going to yell Thank you Mexico! as I take her bra off, and do it for your country :D |

3 years away and even if you go to the same country you probably wouldn't bother to visit? |
Huh? I just said (or meant to say) it will be unlikely that I will go to the same city. Of course I would go visit her! |

It worked for me.
We did the long distance thing for two years (Washington DC & south of England) and I moved soon after I graduated from University. I travelled over to the US every 6-8 weeks, sometimes for a short a time as a long weekend, arriving back in the UK and going straight to lectures or seminars at Uni. My wife, then girlfriend, made the trip over every three months or so as she was in her junior and senior year so required a bit more time to study than I did.
We have now been married for 2 1/2yrs. I'd really struggle to do it again though, if one of us travels for business I realise how much I depend on her to function.
It's hard. It isn't for everyone but I just knew she was the one and vice versa and it worked out for us. One of my wife's friends is in a long distance relationship but she's not too good at it. Her boyfriend seems to be on engineering assignments at various points around the globe for 6 months at a time and they don't get to see eachother too often. She's a serial cheater (in her own words!) and has been sleeping with a friend from Uni who lives in the area. She didn't get much sympathy from my wife when she mentioned it!
Brazil to Japan though, that's tough going... |

| I say it's over. That's a huge distance, a long time and in-frequent visit will further the gap. Sorry but MANY things change in 3 years. |

By the way, I know it's going to be tough. But, I've always had many opportunities to go to Japan, and it's just a matter of time until I get there. That's why I don't care much about the 3 years.
And, if we break up, well... at least I tried. I don't like to give up unless I feel I've really done all I could, specially if it's something that matters to me.

| i was with this girl in a long distance for over 6years, she lived in india and i lived in new york, i'd go visit her every 5-6months, we would talk a lot over the phone, email and online and video conferencing. but distance makes a lot of misunderstandings, specially if one of us is insecure, in my case i was, useless fights over god knows what. and too much talking on the phone/online makes for lack of communication wen u actually see them. and a lot of times u get sexually frustrated, it was hard to control but i did and never cheated on her. the truth is u need a lot of understanding, patience and trust to pull it off.i knew she was the one and vice versa but unfortunately we broke up a month back. im not over her but im trying. |

Distance will definitely 'make or break' a relationship.
Unfortunately it wasn't the distance that broke the relationship I had with my Argentinian (Buenos Aires) girlfriend. It was the United States embassy, when they denied her a tourist visa.
