wtf_ftw Bedford, TX age: 34	yes personal decision of course but why subject yourself to such an iffy proposition, and go through the torture of not being able to see them when you want, and close yourself off from finding someone near you, and having to make travel plans just to be intimate with someone, when there are sooo many people in your area? surely there is someone near you that would make a great partner.

foxy_woman_49 Omaha, NE age: 51	Yes as long as the plans are to be together(as in living together or married, even in the same city/town) within a certain time frame that is acceptable for both.

willieleejohnso New Bedford, MA age: 35	Long distance relationships are difficult, as you are emotionally attached to a person you cannot touch or comfort and this can hurt your heart and wreak havoc with your emotions. The only way to make these relationships work is if you and your partner honestly believe you will be able to survive without each other for a considerable amount of time without the need or desire to be with someone else. Relationships of any kind are difficult. So why add any more stressors would be a rational thought. Two responses come to mind. Anything worth having is worth time and effort. And the second, all great results had great things put into them. Come on folks do you believe peanut butter and jelly was an accident. [Edited 11/6/2008 7:20:52 AM PST]

chicaboom58 North Bergen, NJ age: 60	For me love has no boundaries. I will take a train, plane, bus, car to be with the man I love. Eventually I would relocate. Both individuals need to want to make it work, without that it is destined to fail. I was involved in a LDR for over 2 years. The reason it failed was not due to the distance but other issues. We had already discussed relocation and since my daughter was a child at the time, he was willing to relocate. There is no spontaneity, but I can tell you that we did appreciate each other more because of the distance. I would do it again if I met the right man.

Come on folks do you believe peanut butter and jelly was an accident. all, and I have to agree on this , got my heart broke once again soooo now I'm giving the guys that live closer a chance . thats funny because the ones that are long distance are a challenge to me and I guess I must like the chase and the ones that live closer I didn't want to get close to but now I am . especially when you want someone to cuddle with at nite the distance really sux but if their closer you have a much better chance of a good relationship and they can get to you when you want to be with them

mitu2 Mansfield, TX age: 48	Yes...they can & do work...but like the others have already said, there does need to be a plan to eventually live closer together...WITHIN A CERTAIN TIME FRAME... This of course, has to be planned & decided after spending ample "face-time"...Trust & a sense of humour is a MUST!

I was unable to quote so I had to copy and paste But in response to this: I am not picking on you but got to do it... Why not subject yourself to such a proposition. Proposition has never garanteed results without excepting and taking action. The torture you are referring to is ones insecurity. Not being able to see them when you want is selfish and not considerate of your partners needs just your own needs. Making travel plans just to be intimate is not a burden. @!#@ing is spontaneous! Intimacy takes planning. Surley there is someone near that would make a great partner but wouldn't that be settling. Sorry bro nothing personal [Edited 11/6/2008 8:07:19 AM PST]

brujacakes2 Jim Thorpe, PA age: 37	With the "right" person, much effort put forth by both parties, I would just consider it a long courtship. It would require an incredible potential mate to care more about what is on the inside than on the outside in order for the LDR to be successful.

wileyguy Wilkes Barre, PA age: 38	Quote from angelscholar: Can log distance relationships work???? How far away would seem acceptable etc??? Are there any success stories with LD relationships??? they don't last long can they?yes to work.... there has to be short term and long term plans there has to be ample 'face time' a lot of trust everybody's def of long distance is different.id say anything too far to do every day is long distance.for me anything over an hour fits that.i know people who commute further than that so it may not be a big deal for them. there are tons of ld success stories in the success stories section

hugsnlaughter McKeesport, PA age: 49	No I don't really believe they can unless one of totally commited to relocating going in, if no one is, no sense in wasting time. Plus, I know I would not give up everything on a mere chance that it would work out and if not, have nothing to come back to. Plus, until someone relocates, if they are very far away, seeing each other often would be impossible unless one does not work. JMO

google_mark Houston, TX age: 37	They can work but it takes a lot of trust and patience. During this time you can learn so much about a person without being distracted by pure physical attraction. It it last and the both of you don't stray, can you imagine what it would be like when the two of you deside to be together?

hopesndreams Miller Place, NY age: 40	they can work if you both want it too and one eventually has to move to where the other is, and that is also part of a relationship sometimes. but yes if you really want it to work and the other party does as well then it is a wonderful thing

serenity0515 Mesquite, TX age: 35	Quote from angelscholar: Can log distance relationships work???? How far away would seem acceptable etc??? Are there any success stories with LD relationships??? YES!! When its with the right person, they can work. If both people want it bad enough and truly love each other, yes. True Love knows NO distance!! True Love also will wait for each other. A Monogamous Long Distance Relationship can work if it is meant to be. Trust is a big thing from both people involed in the relationship. I'm very much in love with mine as he is with me. Good Luck to all involed in a LDR. ~S [Edited 11/6/2008 10:51:46 PM PST]

angelsart O Fallon, IL age: 40	Personally, I think it is completely UNREALISTIC to think that the 'man I cant live without' is going to be within xx amount of miles from my house! LOL Maybe that is why the divorce rate is so high in this country! LMAO People just settle for what is convenient?? Since when you're single you're generally alone anyway, why wouldnt it work?? People who cant MAKE them work, probably SHOULDNT make them work, cause they are not that vested in the first place! Angel

During this time you can learn so much about a person without being distracted by pure physical attraction. It it last and the both of you don't stray, can you imagine what it would be like when the two of you deside to be together? I have to agree with you mark. Many times men and women put great stock into physical chemistry before they get to know the heart of that person. I guess it is a personal choice - or a question of what one wants in a relationship. If it's to satisfy a momentary physical need then sure why drive or fly across the country? I'm sure there are plenty of those opportunities in your local area who are looking to be just a “friend with fringe benefits.” Don't get me wrong, physical attraction is important but you should also be drawn to someone by learning who they are on an emotional level, too. For those who have tried a LDR and were hurt...remember if it is meant to be then the two will find a way. There are some folks who have no real roots in the area they live in and some have obligations. It is probably a fair assumption that if you are communicating with someone at a distance and feelings are starting to develop beyond friendship then the subject of distance should be brought up. Don't assume that other person can not make the change or is not willing to make the move to you. For me, I am prepared to compromise because I am not afraid to let my higher power lead me to that special someone. I am really serious about finding a LTR and not just a hook up so I am open to any possibilities and I don’t limit my friendships based on distance. I believe that both parties need to be well adjusted and know what they want. If you are both at the same place in life, are honest with yourself and the other person and know what you want in a relationship then I say, “follow where your heart leads.”

jane_133 Frederick, MD age: 49	Relationships require people to be with each other, otherwise you are just being friends or associates in some form. When it counts, you GET there. If you haven't, then you don't know what a relationship with that person any real amount of face time may be like or worth. Can you maintain one that exists already over long distances? Ask any military couple and pay attention. Highest rates of divorce and infidelity. Sure you can, no it's not easy, and quite honestly if you actually love someone, IT SUCKS, so why would you voluntarily start, continue and have a LDR if you can have something better? If it isn't necessary, don't.

sammael Fountain, CO age: 34	As others have stated , I believe that an LDR can work if both parties are willing to make it work . Being in one now , I know that the toughest parts of an LDR is communication , you pick up little visual signals that you just can't pick up over the phone . When she's in need of comfort , your not there to give her that comfort (and that by itself hurts like hell) . But on the up side , when you do see eachother everything that you've saving up , emotionaly , comes pouring out for them . Plus when you see them , its a lot harder to get tired of them . Just cause you don't see them everyday or even once a week . You two are not hearing the same old stories or expeirences .
