Why would anyone choose to have a long distance relationship?

Good question.
Zeeb is right.
It’s expensive and not only. I spent a year like this with my son's father.

Sometimes it's better to be alone than to wait for… I don't know what for anymore.

A long distance relationship usually begins when two people meet online, and after sometime getting to know each other and after meeting in the real world find they have 'clicked' so to speak. After that, they both decide how they are going to be together and more importantly when. So the long distance relationship is only short term.

Sounds simple, but in my opinion it isn't and requires a lot of thought, the cost of meeting each other, who would eventually relocate, are some of the important questions you have to consider before thinking about starting a long distance relationship.

Yes, long-distance relationships are more common now and it has good reviews too! But the long-distance relationships are suitable for those who are open minded and can accept interracial cultures. Progressive thoughts from both sides are essential elements for long-distance relationships.

It’s true

Couldn't agree more, but the way it looks, a local relationship is hard to come by these days. Maybe someone will pop out of the woodwork and surprise me.

Long distance relationships work when the two people feel the same and we love each other, we need to be patient and always give time to each other and always put God the center of our relationship to getting stronger and stronger..

personaly i feel it requires a whole lot of trust and maturity to make long distance relationship work. this has to have been genuine fron the start, not all long distance relationship work out but the few that do end up being the best relationships.

Loads of people in this sub closed the gap, loads of people are making LDR work perfectly, and loads of people broke up.
LDR is just like any other relationship, it can work or not. It depends on the couple, and the couple only.

Sustainability depends entirely on the level of hope, faith, and belief one has in what they are striving for or engaging in.

When it comes to relationships, whether long distance or otherwise, it depends on whether each individual person's level of faith, hope, and belief resonates with the other person involved.

Some say communication and commitment are most important. I disagree... It all boils down to how much you believe in something and the level of faith/hope one has in that belief. Without hope and faith in both individuals, it's pretty much dead in the water. No communication, or the tools of technology, will bridge that gap. It will eventually cease to exist.

On the other hand, when both individuals have faith and believe without reservations that what they have is worth facing the challenges, then it most definitely can work.

If you meet someone that your connection is consistent, and conversations are flawless. It can work. As long as you have an end date when both will meet to spend time with each other. That is essential to finding special chemistry and connection. Best of Luck.

LDR's are normal relationships that needs extra effort and compromises .
Loads of people on this subject have closed the gap . loads of people are making LDR work perfectly and loads of people have broken Up. It can work or not , it depends on the Couple and couple Only.

No. I have an 8yrs relationship with this guy. I have to leave to visit family but he already cheated the 2nd month I was away. He said he missed physical touch. We had such strong bond. We were perfect. I didn’t expect him to cheat.

Needless to say that LDR has its prerequisites:

* no fake photo's
* having proper and working phones or laptops so you can make video calls
* start with the agreement both will not ask for money to the other one
* having patience

The first 3 has everything to do with protecting yourself against catfishing and scamming

But so far it did not work for me in the last years.

Is the concept of long-distance relationships sustainable in the long run, or do the inherent challenges outweigh the emotional connection? Can technology truly bridge the gap between partners physically separated?

yeah
