Well I have long distance relationship which is difficult the both of us but if you really love each other and you have the strenght to wait for the right time for the both of you then it will be easier as long that you keep in touch to each because communication is really important..Well I can say that havin a long distance relationship is really a challenge to all couples because that is the time that both of you will encounter all the feelings that you've never experiences in a close relationship...I just realized that I really love my fiancee because we almost gave up but then we can't leave each other and i know that there is always a way to all of the things or lets say everythin is possible if you are just willing to do the thing that you need to do...:-0 Well if you really love him then the thing that I can say is you better keep him but if you can sense that you getting out of love or you love is fadin away then it is time to both of you to decided what is right...:-0 God bless and have a nice day..:-0

This is not real love-dont put your hopes in it-love without physical contact soon weathers away!

i know from experience that it is very difficult to have a long distance relation.it frustrates us many times.that,we can not speak to our partner as often we wish,can not meet him regularly etc,but all these you can tolerate if i love him very much.

It sounds like you are pretty much decided yourself! What you have to think about is how you feel about him and how often you get to see him and if there is chance of you or he moving closer. Long distance relationships can work but they take work to keep them going.

It would be up to you really. I am in a long term long distance relationship. I live in Canada and my boyfriend lives in Chicago. I know they can work because we have been together 4 years going on 5 this november 9th. We have decided to get married in canada next year and will be working on getting him to live in Canada with me. It all depends on you.

well, what do you think about the relationship that you are in at the moment? are you happy with your boyfriend? do love him that much? can you imagine your life with him? well, i am in a long distance relationship too and i am happy with my boyfriend and am hanging on to this relationship that's for sure! my boyfriend works over seas so in a year, he spends 9 months outside the country and 3 to 4 months here,so everytime he is here, we see to it that we get to travel and talk and make up for the lost time. we are bestfriends aside from being lovers so we can opnely talk about anything and that's really happy. Everything is up to you dear, ask your self if he is the guy that you really want to be with..but one thing for sure, it can surely work...

And now that 4 months have passed since you posted this discussion, are you still in that relationship? Is it working for you? I am married to a man that I can't live with right now, because he lives in one city and I have moved to another because of work. So right now we are not living together but we are still a couple. He comes to visit me and I go and visit him, at least once a month. He was here just last week and this time he stayed for 6 days, it usually is' only for 3 days. It is working okay, for now, but I know it can't keep working for a long period. But for now I like it because I can do whatever I want and I don't have anyone to answer to. And I love it. I would like to continue this way for a couple years but I am sure my husband won't wait that long for me. So sometimes a long distance relationship can work and sometimes not. It all depends on the people involved. Alrighty then, talk to you later my friend, Your friend, Chris

I would say that it would depend on the maturity of the relationship. When a relationship has not fully grown yet, I think it is essential that it has to be nuourished with considerable amount, and physical contact is really necessary. You wouldnt know much on each other when you just describe what you do, but there should be seeing and knowing you part in every relationship. I am not saying that it doesnt work it is a long distance affair, it would work in some degrees but then again, it would depend on the degree of the relationship. A true lover or someone who loves, wants to spend time with his loved one intimately and that includes the desire and the ability to see the one he loves and being there. have a wonderful day to you !

There are so many things to consider... how far apart are you? How often do you get to see each other? Does it upset you when you have to go to events without him along? I think maybe you should write down the pros on one side of a sheet and the cons on the other side and see what you come up with. Good luck on your decision!

this is just based on my experience.. in a relationship, destiny really depends on you. it is you to decide whether to stay with that man/guy with you LDR or let him go and find another one that you can see and communicate right away. it is only you who can tell if this man/guy is really the one for you. you dont have to look for an ideal one or the right man. because the right man might be him. you just have to make your relationship work out and be the right one.

Hi loveyoohbaby, I think that is something that you have to decide for yourself. Only you know how you feel about him. If the relationship is mature, it can certainly stand being apart but if not, then you know what you have to do. How does your boyfriend feel about it? If he is also unsure than it's probably best to end it. Blessings.

The only advice that I can give you is follow your heart and you'll make the right decision. Its not my call what you do or don't do. Mainly because I don't want to give the wrong advice. But honestly when you follow your heart and your heart will guide you to the right decision.

How long have you been on with your boyfriend how do you really feel that he is the one? Let me share my experience with you. I am in a long distance relationship right now. At first it was really not easy to be so far apart from my love. It took 3 years for me to adjust. That was really a long time huh? But now we are still together. We just had our 8th year anniversary last June 28. No one can tell you about what you have to do with your boyfriend. You should make your own decision. It really sucks to be far from the one you love but if you really love that person it is not easy to let go.

Hello loveyababy, long distance relationships are great for many things and should be cherished for what they are. However, you must admit that you have the physical need to see, feel, hear and touch a real person, which a long distance relationship won't give you. The long distance relationship misses the whole aspect of body language and means that if a false word is exchanged in the long distance relationship it can be completely misunderstood and can be fatal. If I were you I would open yourself up to the idea of relationships with boyfriends in your area, but be honest with your long-distance friend and give him the option of getting there first. Good luck. Umart

I would say if you are no longer having feelings for him and wanting to be with him any more, then you should break it off. You should ask yourself, why you are no longer having feelings for him. Because he is not in the same area as you? Does he not spend enough time with you? Or what. I will tell you this, some long distance relationships work and some don't. I am a person that has been in a long distance relationship that didn't work and I have been in one that did work, because we were both dedicated in making the other happy and the end result, we got married.
