I think it depends on how you approached the whole idea in the first place. Say, for example that your initial reason for venturing into cyber-space was to "find" someone: all of your motives now become suspect because you're motivated to say whatever is required (much of which is likely to be untrue) to get what you want. Not to mention the very obvious question of why you are having difficulty finding someone within your real day to day world. Not a good beginning, and not much to work with. Conversely, however, let's say your experiences were such that you were tired of chasing body part after body part, realized that those decisions were superficial, and that what was needed was a chance to connect with positive people doing positive things and expressing positive ideas, then the anonymity of cyber-space frees you from the snares of judging things based on trappings you know have no substance. Now you're a person hungry to listen: you're ready to meet a woman's mind and you're open to what she's about. Assuming what she tells you is the truth and that you're doing likewise, it would be easy to at least begin to fall in love with that type of connection sight unseen. Lying would be self-defeating; sabotaging what you came here for. Distance then becomes less relevant, because it's now less about sex and more about really loving someone. Someone answered that it was possible but not probable; I actually agree with her, because it depends on the motivations of the people involved. But for a certain type of people, or specifically, people at a certain stage in their development, I have to believe it could work just fine. It is, at least, as good a place to start as any.

A long-distance relationship is a relationship between people who are physically far apart. Typically they are dating or married.\n\nSome reasons for long-distance relationships are:\nThey met through a dating service and live far apart.\nThey met in an Internet community, such as a forum or multiplayer online game.\nThey met while one or both was on vacation.\nThey used to live close together, but one has since moved away (e.g., job, college, military).\n\nTrust between the two parties is a key requirement for a successful long-distance relationship. Either party may be engaging in social activities which, under usual circumstances, could lead to the forming of a relationship. For example, one party may go out with friends or colleagues from work. These colleagues may very well include single persons interested in a relationship. For them it may appear that the long-distance relationship is 'weak' and not substantially important. It requires each partner to learn to trust the other. Of course, the same can be said of regular relationships as well.\n\nLong-distance relationships can be successful when both partners make efforts to visit each other. Discussing possible times to visit, and planning these "vacations" together can assist with strengthening the relationship. Furthermore, it can help build trust.\n\nHowever, it is important to remember that the success of a long-distance relationship can be aversely affected by the length of time the couple is apart. Since an indefinite amount of time apart is a key feature shared by all long-distance relationships, it can be argued that LDRs are considerably more challenging than regular relationships. This makes it all the more important to keep open lines of communication with one another.

Usually long distance relationships are best kept long distance.  If you decide to move closer, kept it an hour or two apart to see if the relationship can handled it.  And if it last a year, then move to the same city.

My boyfriend and I were friends for less than a year when we started dating. The entire time we have known each other has been spent more apart than together.\nA long distance relationship can work if both people are committed to each other. It's hard work and requires a lot of openness but it's possible to make a long distance relationship work.

A LONG DISTANCE RELATIONSHIP CAN WORK IF BOTH PEOPLE REALLY WANT  IT TO WORK OUT.BUT YOU NEED\nTO TALK TO HER ABOUT HOW SHE FEEL. BECAUSE YOU DONT WANT TO PUT ALL YOUR EGGS IN ONE BASKET\nSO TALK TO HER ABOUT WHAT GOING ON. THEN GO FROM\nTHERE. BUT IT CAN WORK IT SELF OUT.

It does not work unless there is an end in sight.  If you don't have plans of when you can actually be *together*... it will not work.  It will become tiresome.  It's not the nicest thing to say, but it's the truth.  Also, if you're *starting out* long distance... that's even harder.  Trust me.

I don't think I'd do anything quite yet.  You should probably wait and see what happens. I understand you're worried but if your relationship is strong, you 2 can work this out.  Some people can make long distance relationships work out, some can't.  He says he's taking you with him, do you even want to move? That's something you'll have to decide and that could give you the rest of the answers you need.\nBest of luck to you!

I met my girl in a game chat room. We've become gf/bf and it's going great. I hope we can say 4yrs, too, soon. And many more, of course.

I myself have a long distance relationship. I'm in Canada and hes in Georgia, USA. People say these tpyes of relationships can't work out because of such the long distance, but I tell you they're wrong. We talk every night  on the phone and use our webcams to see eachother as much as possible. We get to see eachother in person every other month or so for up to 3 weeks at a time. Just being able to talk to him and see him on cam helps so much when we cant be together in person. I don't know what else to tell you as far as to make it easier. I know how hard it can be, but really, thats all the advice I can give you. Hope it helps!

it depends on how both of you feel, and if you really want to make it work it will work. my bf and i have a more than 3 year relationship now, the first 8 months was together in college, the rest was spent in diff continents. i go home to vacation every year to see him. im sure how i feel about him and he says he's sure and i believe him though somethimes i get paranoid and i grill him with questions and sometimes he is patient sometimes he gets irritated. communication is very important. we try to talk everyday even if it's just to say hello. trust each other, if you don't trust each other there's no use having the long distance relationship. don't hold back each other in terms of friendships, your goals, etc. in my case if i'm excited happy sad angry ... he's the person i always want to "report" to. we're each other's "go-to" person even if it's just on the phone. i told him that in case someone new comes along i asked him to just tell me right away and i'm hoping if it ever happens he'll care enough and just be honest. long distance relationships are not easy but if you feel that it's what you want and your bf feels the same way then it will be worth the time and effort. i hope i've been some of help.

Tell him how you feel. Even though he is leaving its always worth the feeling deep down inside knowing that he knows how you feel. He maybe even want to give it a shot with a long distance relationship. Good Luck!!

I took the plane to another continent to spend 5 days with my someone I had been chatting with over the Internet for four months. It was our first meeting, it was simply amazing and felt so natural. I miss him so much... he is coming over here for summer. Plane tickets aren't cheap, but love is worth more then anything.
