      true, it's very different starting out long distance than it is to be close and have it turn into a long distance.
      You're right but generally, when you're beginning a relationship its not about trust, it's about a meeting of minds and whether you two are compatible. Trust issues come into play once you do decide this guy/girl is relationship worthy. I agree with you as far as relationships don't last without trust. It's the initial hurdles that need to be conqured before you get onto the major ones no?

      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!
      Oh I don't doubt that at all. You definately learn alot through means of phoning, emailing, texting, ims, etc. and yes in order to make this work you do need to put in extra time and effort. Communication is EXTRA important when it comes to LD relationships. At the same time, all i'm saying is an LD relationship is really hard to maintain.

      Like Demo is saying, it's hard to find the same kind of connection that you may have with someone in the physical with you then with someone whom you're close to on the phone/texting/emailing. A touch, a look, yah...sure you guys see each other, once every month...once every three months...but an LD connection is much easier to break then one with someone who's with you in the physical sense.

      I dunno...that's all I'm saying...i'm not against it, and i'm not pro it. I think its solely dependant on the two people in the relationship to make it work.

      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.
      You have many valid points. As I have said before I've seen it work and yes it takes dedication on both parties in order to make that happen. I am not saying that I cannot compromise or be dedicated, I just need someone physically here for me. It's just not the same sorry.

      where do you get the sexual drive?!!! i mean lets be realistic, first impression is, "she cute, she this n that", how can you get that over a phone? thats like one of the most important times.

      i got a double date to attend right now, its in person, not over the phone, so ill post in this again later.
       
      Feel the tension, soon as someone mentions me
      Here's my ten cents, my two cents is free
      A nuisance, who sent? You sent for me?

      long distance isn't for everyone and it wouldn't be my first choice but i wouldn't let distance be the obstacle from being in a relationship with someone if it's the right someone.

      Take it from a guy: If you're in love with somebody, you will swim the stream, you will climb the mountain, you will slay the dragon. You're going to get to her somehow, some way. You must think this way. Don't let any obstacles interfere with your heart.
