I have a hard time with putting my heart in it and
always wondering if the carpets going to get yanked
out from under you. I've never done it on the internet but I think it would be ridiculous to
commit to an exclusive stage, without spending
some time together and a viable plan that could
keep you together. For someone younger that just
may not be established,that makes it,unrealistic
then its just a pipe dream and they need to
wake up out of La La Land and give their head a
Dam good shake.
One thing a have learnt and that's always jump
when the jumping is good..its the hesitation that
will kill you


Good post (((Jamie)))...I agree with 90% of it:wink: laugh ...:tongue:

You know tho, there was that lady that posted her engagement on here not long ago. I can't remember her name but her story is inspiring. Theirs was a long distance relationship.

:thumbsup: It can work, but those who succeed share some commonalities...Other than love, they are tenacious, strong, self confident, and mature...They are also creative and openminded when it comes to finding ways to "feel" connected...Daily phone calls are a necessity...Phone and skype visits that include intimacy (cyber sex, phone sex, sexting), open communication, patience, a solid plan, a definitive time frame....

Yeah and I remember her saying she finally just had to take a chance and she packed and moved to him. That's a big decision. I think thats where a lot of people get stuck. Most are too afraid to take that risk or don't have the resources to do it. Then things just fizzle...:-(

Seriously! No it won't work. Realist here, and I see that if you try this, you'll only feel dissapointment...sorry OP just that's the way it is.


I often label myself as a "Realist".... I agree, it's not worth the disappointment... even those in the same state try to scam us. Had another one yesterday... The "real" guys seldom will venture outside their own city to meet you for lunch :wink:

Yet, people have made it work, even on here, there's been a few Mingle success stories that started out as long distance, even with 2 involved coming from two different countries.

hahaha am reading all these posts and i just have to smile..i feel sorry for the majority who says it will not work out just cause they got disappointed their selves..well to my knowledge i know dozens of people who met online and now living together years counting..YES..some of them were scams but eventually they found the real right one..I see these people coming on vacations all the time and every time the family seems to get larger with the extension of the little ones :) and most of the cases or interracial relationships..
I myself had been in a couple long distance relationships but it didn't work out simply cause the level of maturity and understanding was not mutual and i were much much younger..in the point of break ups and disappointments thats common cause it happens everyday with people we know and live in the same state or country for years we get scam by people from the same country and state..but when it all boils down all it takes is the proper communication like actually talking with that person,talking with their family,video chatting and so on,make sure that there is a mutual responsibility in committing to travel and meet in either residence..PS.you just cant rush and play the game of the blind mice

I can't say for sure. Better to just try it, if you're truly into them.
