long distance relationships what are your thoughts on it if you really found someone that was wroth it it really seemed like he was willing too work on it.. would you totally go into it or what.... just curious.....I believe if you find the right person it can be worth while but you both have too work really hard... on keeping the relationship going..... whats the farthest you ever dated someone that you really cared for and all....did it work why or why not... for example i say it can work my mom originated from mexico my dad just went too visit mexico at the time met her felt head over heels for her he would walk 3 hours just too see her atleast ten minutes he was allowed every day .... how cute and once he came back too cali santa monica they wrote letter..... i read the mrecentlly there so romantice thats why they are my inspiration... i think it can work...... they eventually got married and had me and my brother but before that got married over there and came over here... they have bben legally here well for 30 years... have two kids and still together...

Long distance relationship almost never work, unless you're at least one or two states away from each other. I was in one and they lived in Ohio and I live in Washington State. It never worked out for more than 6-8 months before we split.

They are not for me & from what I've seen most don't work! There are a few that have .

To me, the only way it can work boils down to one, simple key factor. And that key is pure, 100%, true devoted love. Now, you can say that this is wishful thinking, and you may be right. However, look at relationships that occur when both live in the same city. Even when you live close to, or even with someone, there is no guarantee that it'll work.

LDR's are tough. Longest I had was seven hours from me, and it wasn't real bad. However, we made it work until I moved down to her. Believe it or not, us living together actually hurt us more. I learned alot from it, and no, it has not deterred me from moving to another woman if I felt it was truly worth the risk. I say risk, because...well, it is a risk. It is a 50/50 shot it'll work. However, if I do it again, or if she were to move to where I live, I will spend more time getting to know her, and searching deep within myself to know that she is the one I want.

Bottom line, it really depends on the people who are involved. Yes, I am 0-1, but I don't consider what I went through as a loss. I learned. I grew. And, in the end, I am better for it. I feel they can work, even though (statistically) the chances are not good.

All relationships are difficult and need to be worked on. It takes commitment, honesty and trust to create true love. If you have that i dont see why it would be any different to a regular relationship. And i agree that it is so romantic to send and receive love letters. What do you have to lose?

oh ok i meant linke in same state just lie 2 hours away from each other it can wrok right

been there done that,and won't do it again

Some work out, some dont work out. Im living with my partner now that i met online and was in a LDR with for over two years.

Me too!!!

I found my love right here at home. !!

2 hours IS NOT a Long Distance Relationship

You can be in the same room with someone and have a long distance relationship that fails...or you can be a continent apart and have it work. How badly do the two want it? Trying to put definitions and rules on love and how and where it works is like herding cats...you can do it theoretically. But the practicality is beyond too much analysis...it is a matter of the

I AGREE!

It can take over two hours to cross my city.

your right two hours is not far if we both make it work.... right.... if my parents were really far her in mexico and dad in santa monica then not far at all two hours

i was in one that was 6 hrs away....best 6 months of my life

ok cool this makes me feel better really does a lot

Anything over 20 mins. I pack an overnight bag

Me too ish!!!!!!!!!!!

well my love is moving to me, if there is love there its worth the time and effort!!
