The distance is about 2 1/2 hours.. not too bad.  We are both very interested but not sure how to proceed.  We were introduced by my sister and her friend recently.

well to develop a relationship with the person who is just 2 1/2 hour far is not a difficult thing.u can make relatioship by chatting daily or whenever u like on phone or on internet chat,and then u may meet several times.\nwell if u like each other u can make from any far end than ur distance is not too much.

try to get involved with the same activities as her, just dont make it obvious youre doing it BECAUSE of her being there. then, strike up a conversation about whatever you two are doing... but dont force it, say whatever comes to mind and sounds nice.

God Bless Her. The idea is to do it in a way which will not hurt her in any way. If this were my problem this afternoon, as I sat down on the sofa, I would reach for a pillow which I would tuck partly under my tailfeathers and which would extend outwards to act as a "spacer" between myself and whomever chose to join me. I would explain, if she moves in regardless, that (you can actually use these same words) "Like Garfield, 'I need my space!'" You can be more determined if you like. You can grab two pillows and put the second one under your arm and elbow. Sooner or later, you will find your words to just ask her politely right out to please move a little further away from you because you need more space to breathe and be comfortable. If she does not understand you, well, you can't actually sit ON her, but that of course would give her an idea of how you feel, wouldn't it? Another answer? Bring that other chair into this room with you and then she can claim the whole sofa and you can chat with her from a distance of about fifteen to eighteen feet, from across the room. There are other answers. Keep reading!  Best to you from G. in South Portland, Maine, U.S.A.

Is she worth it? I'd say go for it, it's only 30 min. and you've never done it before :) Just be careful, don't get caught and don't make it a habit. Good luck.

Tell him you want to meet the brother and his girlfriend first, maybe at a dinner. Or better make some plans that would have you and your boyfriend around them  most of the day on a Saturday.  That way you can get to know them better and hopefully tell if you would feel comfortable with them out of town.  But just going  away with people you don't know, sounds like trouble.

Two hours is nothing for him to drive and take you out or spend the day with you.  I would, if I liked someone and they equally liked me!  There is always the telephone in between times when you can't see each other.  Doesn't sound like a problem to me.

I know it's tough when that happens but how about talking to her and just letting her know you miss having some time to hang out with her. Maybe you could suggest that the two of you plan something to do together... go to the mall? go for a walk whatever it is you both like to do and then to show that you see she is building another new friendship make an additional plan to get together with all your friends both Kelsey and Alex and suggest including the new girl. You can get to know her too and you can all find out what you have in common and make more friends. I hope it works out, I know having lots of girlfriends can be fun but can be hard work too, sometimes girls don't get along perfectly I'm afraid your experiencing that right now.

I sure would. 2 hours is nothing. My girl and I have 6-7 hours between us. It sucks big, and I'd do anything to see her more often.

arrange a vacation where you go to cali to see her once a yr. she will have to do the same and see you once a year. but distance doesn't really seperate you guys, it just brings you guys closer together. what i said about the vacatino was onli a suggestion. but you guys really hav to find a way to meet each other. good luck

It takes me at least five minutes, maybe less.  My boyfriend doesn't like me to do it to him for very long--he is always asking me if I am almost there.  Sometimes it goes longer, maybe 30 minutes, but I am very lucky if he lets me do it that long.  It takes me at least five minutes though to get to the point where I have the option to go or not.\n\nDang, you made me get hot thinking about it!  And, my boyfriend lives two hours away!

Well first of all I would almost bet that you will get some smart comment from someone cause of the fact that you met online, but I can relate to you in that way.  I met my current boyfriend online as well.  I live in NY for the time being because of acting and he's from MN, where I'm originally from.  We have made it a point to see each other as often as possible to make sure that we don't grow apart.  We talk on the phone quite a bit and everytime I feel like I might question the whole relationship, hearing him at the end of the day lets me know that it will all work out.  I think that it is definitely possible to make a long distance relationship work as long as you both want it, because when one person isn't fully in it then that's when things seem to go wrong.  I'll be back in MN soon and I'll still be about 4 hrs away from him but that's a lot close than 23-24 hrs.  I can handle that short distance and so can he. I know if you both want it and are really in love then it will work out how it is suppose to.

I've done the long distance thing..  You two are doing everything right in my book anyways.. lol.  My advise is to stay busy with friends.  That way the time will go by faster.

distance relationships are generally bad unless your trust level is extremely high. where and when do you fit the quality time. I am sorry you may want to move on at least until the distance becomes a non-issue.  :(

I don't know how much this will help you but my girlfriend and I met and started dating almost instantly...thinking back it all happened so quick but it was so natural that we never had any problems.  She lived about 30 minutes away from me and I was in college and worked so it was hard but honestly, I would come home from work and could expect to walk in the door and see her every day (she had a key).  Two months after we met we moved in together and have been living together ever since.  We talk and spend time together every day.  I can honestly say that we have not spent more than 10 days apart from each other since we met 8 months ago and it has been amazing!
