Have you ever been in a long distance relationship?

[notfred]

I live about 150 miles from my girlfriend, so I only get to see her on weekends. Anyway, it'll probably be two weeks before I can see her again. fortunately, I'm moving up there in January

Anyway, I wanted to know how many people have been in a similar situation.
Also, if you could post the distance you were seperated by, that'd be cool.

Let's see.. we met locally, then she moved about 1000 miles away for 13 months. About once a month or every 5 weeks I blew way too much money flying out to see her trying to make everything work. To answer your question we've been broken up for a few months. Your situation on the other hand doesn't sound nearly as bad, the weekends is child's play after what I was used to.

i've been in many long distance relationships; some hundreds of miles and others thousands of miles. they all have one thing in common: they cost a lot of money; but they sure are fun.

 

[geekybear]

separated by 70 miles for almost a year (majority of the relationship) and it's still going strong
January's only a few months away anyway

I voted that it worked out and was OK, but we aren't together anymore. We made the long distance thing work, but I had to move cross country and we had to face the fact that we won't be in the same city anytime soon. We broke up because of the reality of it, not because we were having problems as a result of the distance.

She lives in NJ.

I would kill to be only 150 miles away from Sarah. 150 is right next door compared to 2500+.

Every weekend?

Try every six months.

I went out with a girl who moved 1500 miles away and I only got to see her once a month. We just drifted.

long distance is suck

oh man...I feel SO sorry for you bro...I really do. I mean, especially after you posted up pics of her and everything. Hang in there man...just hang in there. If it makes a fellow AT member feel better, whenever you're feeling down, just remember this when you want to get in contact with her.

you can run cat5 cable for like ever with signal repeaters.
ditto for 802.11 I think.
you can wire a camcorder into your vivo card.
the internet is your friend.

long distant relationships are not reliable. One is bound to cheat, or fool around. It is bound to happen soon or later if the demand for need is not fulfilled in one sector, he/she will find bait elsewhere and never tell.

eventually the person would lie to the other saying they love them, they miss them, but he/she is probably getting some on both fronts. It is a possiblity that you must be informed about, and that is why I am not for long distant thangs. last gf i had left to Hong Kong for an entire summer, you think I was going to let that go by? you are mistaken, one of us probably did something. and don't start with that trust stuff. There are times when people simply keep real secrets.

just a thought, again, lessons from the man himself. Tom Leykis. (those that listen to 97.1 iin So Cal know what i'm talking about)

danny~!

 

[LethalWolfe]

Ha, I go ya'll beat. GF is in Indiana (finishing school at IU). I'm in LA (trying to get a job as an editor). So we're 'bout 2500 miles apart. Been like this since June and everything is par for the course. I'm seeing her in a coupla days, and she flew out here for a week in Aug. 'course we've been together for... 7yrs in Dec so we already had a solid foundation. When we both were in school (I graduated in May) we we're 'bout 2-2.5hr drive apart (I was a Ball State, for those from IN).

Yes, multiple ones for over 4 years now, and I tell you that they don't work.
You can try, but I guarantee your too young for it.

 

[Lars]

Guarantee that I'm too young? well, it's been 11 months so far, and only 3 left to go.... so, I don't know how good your guarantee is...

[pillage2001]

Been in one......was half a globe away from her for a year and now she's with me.

Not too bad I must say buy prepare for hell when things don't go right!

 

[bastula]

I'm in one right now. I'm in Chicago, she's back home in Oklahoma - about 800 miles away. We've known each other for a while, but we didn't get into a more serious relationship until this past spring.

If you're takin his guarantee...I got a bottle of magic water here that'll grant you eternal life...100% guaranteed or your money back.. and I'll part with it for say...1000 dollars?

haha.

 

My guarantee is about as good as anyone elses opinion.

But now that you are moving there, you can truly test your relationship, on a daily basis.

What she said




<< One is bound to cheat, or fool around. >>

If the other does, its probably best as well as your selection abilities leave something to be desired. If its you, well then may you get caught. Either way have some faith in your alleged love and hopefully be faithful yourself.
