I have never had a long distance relationship ,Can they really work even if the distance is only 250 miles?I am really interested in this guy and want some advice on this topic

good luck !!!!! and have a lot and i mean a lot of patience.

I personally do not beleive in long distance relationships. I guess it would depend on the people though.

its hard.. you have to have trust.. for both of you... its a test of your true faith and devotion... And definately what maxxximus said... Patience....Good Luck

You just need two people that want the same thing to work! I had one but it did'nt work because he quit wanting it to.

I have never had a long distance relationship, but like max said, be patient. Besides halfway is only 125 miles, not that far really.

it is hard... real real real real hard....it didn't work for me.. doesn't mean it wouldn't work for you though

Maybe if both of the people are patient.. it may work.. but I DO NOT KNOW!!..lol
I got hurt really bad in my situation.

four hours each way, each time... someone is going to get tired of that one, perhaps. If children are involved and a professional life on top of that? Sounds like stressful times could be ahead

i dont think it would work UNLESS u both are willing to commit and give it a chance and know that you will barely be together. i was in an "ldr" for a bit and i was friends with her for a long time and we met and she dumped me instantly so be sure before u become "in love" or anything that u have chemistry in real life!

hey i think that it could work. My b/f lives bout 2 hours away from me and we see each other almost every weekend. Its wonderful to have a b/f that aint up your butt all the time. lol.

I dont know the answer to this question myself. I think u have to both have a lot of trust and u need to compromise. It must not be easy and i guess it depends on the ppl involved and how much effort they put into it.

I agree with Jamie

Get you a good car that's cheap on gas.

Good Luck

I ended up in Oklahoma from Kentucky after a year of dating long distance. It ended 10 months later. We just did not get to know each other very well doing the weekend romance thing with a week here and a week there. We were 10 hours apart (600 miles).

I'm not saying it can't work, it is just very, very difficult. To be together, ultimately someone will have to move.

I have had long distance relationships before...I would never do it again!! I was with someone that lived only 2.5 hours away...trust me, it gets old traveling. My relationship lasted about 3 years and it was a good relationship BUT I would never do it again!!
I think no matter how much faith and trust you have in someone, you still have doubts!! Plus if something happens and you have to get to that person in a hurry...its just not going to happen! Thats a helpless feeling when that person is hurt and you just can't be there!
I wish you all the luck and I do hope you make it You better have good communication, lots of trust, lots of faith and tons of patience!!!

Well they can work if both people are up for the struggle. i myself am in a long distance relationship and its working out great were planning on moving together in a few months and Finally moving to puerto rico. As long as 2 people are patient and truly commited and honest then everything should work out fine.
Good LUCK

Congrats Mariely

Thanks DHT LOL and ya this site does work for people who are a little apprehensive

You're welcome

I hear ya

Well I think that distance is not such a big deal but if neither one of you is willing or able to move so that you can be together, it can be impossible after a period of time because neither one of you are getting your needs met being apart. So be sure anyone you meet is willing to relocate, or that you are willing to relocate. Because eventually, you will need to be together. And still you are taking a chance because you don't really know each other until you live together. But even if you live in the same city, you are still taking a chance when you start living together, so what difference does it make where you are now? I say just don't put all your expectations into it until you have lived together for some time and you really know each other. I for one do not limit myself to just someone in my own city or state. I think that in doing so a person seriously limits their chances. Sp what if your soulmate is 2 states away? A long distance affair with someone who is here in the US is not anything like someone who is in another country. And I have been there and done that already. If you don't have the money for international travel, your relationship dies because of never being face to face.
