Long distance relationship

[PetPetz]

right now my girlfriend is studying in the UK... I miss her so much... but we talk on skype for free (no long distance fees wheww) and we have webcams so we "see" eachother but its not the same as in holding and whatever...but its better than nothing and we can't trip on that...

Communication is ESSENTIAL in a long distance relationship... actually in any relationship

And I agree with Shabs... trust is build when you are getting to know the person...and you have mutual understanding

and if something is bugging you... don't hold back... talk it out... i know its easier said than done... im learning it myself...

^^^hey Peta....communication is essential...like i said before I have seen it work, but for me I know it couldn't...good for you girl :)

Communication is definitely very important in any kind of relationship whether it’s a long distance or local.

Peace.

I was going to swear off of LD relationships cause i just got burnt by this chick from the east coast... but i was friends with this girl first and it just built up and i was kind of in denial about my feelings cause i wanted to keep things casual

its funny we talk a lot more now cause its true... its very important... she knows she can always reach me... i don't like her using her cell cause its just a waste of money... texting is 15 cents a pop...ugh!

i personally havent had a long distance relationship and i dont know how i would feel about getting into one. two of my cousins went through the whole long distance thing and it worked out fine for them and they're both married to their significant others.
one of my cousins and his wife started dating when they were 16 and he went to UCLA for school, then florida and then dominica for school and she was in jersey all those years.
my other cousin, they first started dating at stonybrook and her boyfriend got a business and moved down to florida while she was still in ny finishing school and they got married last year after dating 7 years.

it all depends on the person in the end and how much you are willing to trust each other.

you sound really needy.

it's not all just about trust...it's about attention or developing a closeness that's much harder to do when the relationship is long distance. For example start of a relationship that's long distance is much harder to establish then starting it off close and then it turning into long distance.

The attention you give new relationship in the begginning is important and sometimes i feel as though that attention can't be done when the person is nine thousand miles away...

the whole seeing each other for movies, going out for drinks, going to the mall...learning each others habits...its just not probable if you're not in physically seeing distance. I dunno, I'm not saying its not possible...i'm just saying it working out is generally not probable.

ehh just my two cents.

how is that being needy?

long distance relationships can and do work.

trust and communication are important for any relationship... even more important in a long distance relationship.

distance is the most obvious obstacle but you can make it work... lots of ways to keep in touch and stay connected. it's not always the quantity of time you spend together but the quality of the time spent together that matters.

it also depends on the people in the relationship... long distance isn't for everyone. you have to be committed to making it work and put forth the extra effort needed.

true but w/o trust, most relationships won't last. as for attention or closeness, it's not necessarily harder just different... you have to be more creative about getting to know one another. i agree that seeing each other helps, especially for new relationships.

true, it's very different starting out long distance than it is to be close and have it turn into a long distance.

you'd be amazed how much you can learn about each other from talking on the phone, email, texting, ims, etc. sure, you have to pay more attention, listen more closely, pick up on things, etc. but if you are interested in the person you wanna put forth the extra time and effort.

the relationship starts out more about your personalities and interests versus just the physical. it's like you get to know the person first and then it turns into a relationship vs. meeting the person, going out a few times and then realizing that you don't have much in common and there's no potential for a relationship.

on the plus side, you are always looking forward to seeing your s/o!

honestly, what the hell is a long distance relationship. How can you develop and maintain the feelings? Where is the connection? Where is the subtle things, such as touching...


maybe its different for everyone, but i cant do a long distance rlationship, i dont beleive in it, i need to be able to see the person with my eyes, i need to be able to touch her face whenever i want to.
