    For it! I'm in a fantastic relationship right now with a guy I met whist gaming online. We've met twice and are due to meet again in just 6 days! I live in England and he lives in France. It works well for us :)

    I laugh every time someone asks me '...but... how is it going to work?' and I just reply with 'if you want it to work, it will.' For us, we can't see how it wouldn't work. Of course we'd love to see each other more but we have something far too special to sweep aside just because of a few extra miles.

    They can be nice if you can make them work. When I was younger, I couldn't handle it. I felt like I needed to be around that person all the time to feel loved and secure. Now that I am older, I think I could appreciate it more. (will someone send my SO somewhere? just kidding). Sometimes when you are around a person all the time, you tend to take them for granted.

    LMAO!!! Dang it, Carl - you made me snort water up my nose!


    I think distance is not a big deal....if you love/like each other, go for it!

    Met my best friend online 10 years ago...we only see each other twice or three times a year, but she and I are like sisters.

    Had a long distance romantic relationship as well....the distance wasn't the spoiler though.

    Oh hell no. Long distance relationship means no regular nookie, unless you've got mad frequent flyer miles...

    I think anything is possible if you put enough effort into it. All involved would have to really, really want it to work. The distance makes communication all the more important.

    I am in one and why yes it is very hard there are ways to make it work :) I am so in love with my boyfriend and I wouldnt trade him for anyone. These however arent for boring people you have to be spicy and do what you can with what you have :)

    Also-It can not be long distance forever so dicussing plans for the future always helps for motivation.

    I'm too demanding and need constant attention to be in long distance relationship. Never done it never will.

    I'm in one. I miss her constantly, and it can be very difficult. I love her so much though and couldn't imagine my life without her.

    I think it's important that we hear each others voices everyday. So I always make sure to call her. We talk a lot via text, chat, and skype as well.

    I'm interested in hearing what some of you that have been or are in a LDR have done to help make it work?

    It's certainly possible..but, it's very difficult. And both people involved have to want it very much! There is no such thing as "lightly committed" when you're in a long distance relationship. Either you're in it, or you're not in it. And if you can't communicate effectively don't even bother! My husband lives more than 2000 miles away, and has for the last 3 years due to work. We fly back and forth to visit, but it certainly wouldn't be possible if we weren't 100% sure of who we are as a couple.

    I live in America, and I dated a girl in Brazil for about 2 years. It was tough, but for the most part, we made it work well. We managed to see each other about every 3 months on average, and we spent A LOT of time on Skype. :)

    I'm all for it as long as the other person is willing to work as hard as me to keep it going and make it successful :)

    ive had one..they are hard and i think you have to have some type of plans to live together in the future, otherwise i think the distance would become too much
