many say that long-distance relationships don't work.
you see, i am into this kind of relationship for three years now. we have been together for one year, but later migrated to the US and haven't seen each other for two and a half years already. the only things that connect us are our conversations via friendster, text messages, and phone calls, but these are barely done as he is so busy with work in the navy. now our communication will be halted again for six months as he will be deployed in a ship!
I do not worry about what we feel with each other. I worry bout the consequences of having no communication at all!

as long as both of you have communication, there is no problem on having a long distance relationship. and aside from that trust is very important the more you know and feel each others presence the better. but i still prefer to have a relationship of being together, it is a safe relationship.
sometimes most long distance relationship are attracted to temptation from falling into someone's arms, but if you believe in your relationship and as i have said, if both trust each other it is very much okay.

Long distance relationship works on the same principal on which short distance relationship works and that's is faith and trust.Only problem comes with long distance is that you cant be a constant factor of his life and communication is a vital part too, now he is in ship so I guess he must be on 18 hrs a job and I dont think the merit of relationship with you going to alter with this 6 months break. But one thing always happen, when you are alone and in solitude you do re examine the relationship and before he boarded the ship if ever he had a doubt or was drifting with the relationship then I guess it will be hard to find it on the track. But this is life you got to take chances with it.

Yes. I believe that long distance love affair is very hard. I don't know someone who succeed in this situation. Others decide to get married for them to be together and others end up breaking up. In a relationship you need to have trust but how and until when you will hold on to his words without seeing his actions.

Maybe for the moment this relationship can still be ok for you. Some log distance relationship can work but in these case people see each other sometimes and also communicate together. IT's hard when you are really in love not to touch or even to hear their voice. You gotta be careful with this relationship. You really need to talk to each other to be sure you are still both having the same feeling.
