I agree! If you want a lasting sustainable relationship, both need to be proactive in eliminating the distance. One needs to be willing to relocate, and visiting each other as much as possible is vital. Talking frequently on the phone and/or video chatting is also important, especially if finances prevent you from frequent visiting.

Even if you prefer to keep it long distance, pretty much like having a holiday love affair, it's likely to fade away eventually. It's in our human nature to bond with others, the distance prevents that and most, especially women, would eventually yearn to have someone a little closer to home.
