lilod Aurora, IL 49, joined Aug. 2012	It really depends on your nature and what you want from a relationship. For me, a long distance relationship is great because I like being alone and my life is very full of other people/activities/interests. I'm not the kind of person who believes a house can be "too quiet" and I'm comfortable going pretty much anywhere alone. If you're a person, though, who relishes the presence of another person, sharing dinner every night, having someone in the house while you're each doing your own thing and waking up next to someone every morning, it's probably not going to go well. You may be able to make it work, but you'll always feel like you're being cheated of something or just getting by.

Also, you have to have a plan and a desired result in order for the relationship to grow and keep moving positively. If not, it will fizzle out. This says what I was thinking. Also, I'd like to add that if there are no plans to end the distance eventually or at least a willingness or ability to, I don't think it's worth starting in the first place.

ashly66 Redding, CA 64, joined Feb. 2013	Long Distance as one is trying to make it work and one is seeing other people..you just don't know what they are up to...It is best to fine some one that lives in the same town where as you can see one aother and get to know that person... Been there done that on the long distance thing, will not do again, it is to hard and the price of gas will cost you to do so! [Edited 2/15/2013 10:30:59 AM ]

ladytigerrules Bronx, NY 43, joined Apr. 2012	For each couple, it's a different story. What intentions do each have? If it's for long term, there needs to be some compromising on both ends. One may have to consider relocation at some point if it came to that. That may not be suitable for some. Weighing out the pros and cons, is this person worth it? Is this someone you have been getting to know as friends for a while now and are sure this is what you want/need? I believe being friends first and seeing where it goes as far as feelings being mutual and taking it from there if you begin to care for this person. I believe love is the most powerful thing in this world and for that, at that point, I'd say it's worth it if it meant he/she is the one you've been looking for all your life.. If you are not looking for a long term, and are just looking to have fun, a visit once in a while is all it is and nothing to concern yourself with as long as it's what both people feel. Know the person and trust your heart. Love is not an effort, it is a gift..

Long distance relationship can work as much as relationship on home soil.If you look at it critically, both are thesame.Let your feelings, and your dreams guide you.

Where did that number come from? I think that in many ways they're easier to maintain, because there's far less adjustment to either person's day-to-day life.

joy_4u2 Fort Payne, AL 53, joined Jun. 2013	It is according to how much you want to invest. It costs money and time to travel. It is a strain on the relationship. There was no chance of last minute surprises in the relationship. I couldn't just cook him lunch and take it to his job. He couldn't join me for lunch. We had to literally take vacations and a week off of work to see each other. It cost thousands of dollars, missing work and traveling. I had to change the oil in my car before leaving and when I arrived back home. It was very costly. After a year I had spent so much money to maintain the relationship that I could have bought a house. Then I found out he was cheating with a "local" girl who was available to him. ...and, Yes he came to see me, too. We took turns visiting each other. He had to work while I was visiting, so he could come visit me. Our time was so limited. Our relationship was more virtual through e-mail, Skype, text messages and phone calls. I want someone I can hold in my arms and kiss their lips. I doubt I would ever do it again.

I witness people whom I know become successful in online dating, they are now married to their former long distance love. In my case, I have loved and lost. He was a golden tongue deceiver who couldn't stop cheating whenever I was away.

cosmicgem Springfield, MO 59, joined Jun. 2011	In very few cases is there Real love and devotion and commitment from both parties. And eventually a well thought out relocation. Job housing etc. And later a moving in together. But mostly. Those are only pipe dreams and fairy tales. I personally will not get into a LDR. Iwant to know someone in person. See their eyes and smile and other expressions when we talk to each other. I want the fairy tale. But for me. Why be with someone if you can not be With them?

zena0514 Roxboro, NC 33, joined Jul. 2014	in my opinion. I do not think so I believe the distance of being apart, would drive the two crazy and sooner or later drive the apart. Needing to kiss touch or hold anything of seeing each other on a day to day basis or at least a couple of days a week, would definitely drive a couple crazy if they could not do those things on a regular basis.
