They're not easy but they can work. Depends how much you want it to work though I think. My girlfriend was in New Zealand for the best part of a year and in that time I saw her for a two week period when I went to visit. We're still together and she's back in the UK. Still sort of a long distance relationship as I only see her for about days a month when I go to visit her at Uni. They do work and it's worth it. Maybe my relationship is the exception or we both actually gave a shit about each other enough to make it work.

But I agree: proximity is crucial. But like my moms always says, "If it's meant to be, then it'll be." Which means, "date people while you still can."

Well, as many have stated....long-distance relationships usually do not work....usually. I myself am in one and have been in one for 2 years now. She lives about a 1000 miles away from me. The thing about long-distance relationships is that sooner or later somethings gotta give....it just varies from couple to couple. I myself am going to move down there (San Antonio Texas) by the end of Summer '05 at the latest.
I've heard quite a few stories where such relationships have worked out and both parties are happy together. As wimp's mom said.....if it's meant to be then it'll be. Use whatever outlet sources you can to find the right one. If your both serious about one another and want to take the next step....something will give. Most people just get too attached too soon and everything backfires. Just give it a shot....there's no harm in trying.
Here we are together when I went down and saw her:

Heh, I don't think I look that young. My pictures in the pic thread show more justice of my age (20) than that one does I guess. As for her, she's 18...and yes she does look young, but a lot of asians tend to look younger than they really are. Ah well, I can live with it....just means it will have major benefits as we grow older. :]

I know a couple people who can only have long distance relationships, but thats usually cause they're likely to sleep around, and its easy to lead that lifestyle when you only see your g/b/f once or twice a month.
Those kinda people usually ballance out after a couple years, and then start looking for a real relationship.
