yes, at least mine do live. of course it's tough not to have sex, not to see a person you love but if it's real there is nothing impossible. my friend dated a girl before the army, she couldn't wait for him and already was about to get married but he came back and in several month they got married. it was about 10years ago but they still really love each other. i don't mean they are the definition of love, just say that even getting the other bf/gf can't put the end to real love

Long distance relationships can work, but I think that for such a relationship to work at least one of the people involved must be ready to move eventually. If neither one of you wants to/can live where the other one is living now, maybe you could consider going to a third country where you could both be. If neither one of you is ready to move, sorry to say, it's unlikely that the relationship will work out.\n\nA long distance relationship worked for me, we are now married and living together despite living thousands of kilometers apart for a year and a half after we got to know each other. :)

Long distance relationships CAN work!\nMy cousin's friend met her husband while she was touring in Europe and they emailed each other and spoke on the phone for another two years before they saw each other again.\n8 hours distance really isn't that much in comparison and I think perhaps he's just being a little pessimistic and lazy.\nSpeak to him, and if he's agreeable, set a time where you see each other maybe twice a month... find a place that is halfway between your houses and spend a nice weekend at a motel or something.  If it is true love it will work out eventually where you both are in the same place at the same time.\nGood luck! :)

It can work out if you two had a strong relationship before separating.  I was in a faithful (If you are sure he is the one for you--and he feels the same way--then I would not recommend getting into another relationship) long distance relationship of 2500 miles for over a year, and we stayed in contact by phone (we each had Cingular phones, so there was no long distance charge).  She lived in Reno, NV and I moved to Knoxville, TN.  After she finished her degree, she moved to be with me and we are together today.\n\nI hope everything works out for you :o)

Communication and honesty, plus I feel you have to be the type of person that's ok with not seeing your partner every other day.  Some people don't feel it's a relationship if you don't share most of your day-to-day life with the other person.  I think the up side to a long-distance thing is the time you do spend together is always interesting and special, since it's limited.  You don't get bogged down with the daily grind.

Long distance relationships can work as long as two people are dedicated to each other and want it to work. The two of you are the only ones that will be able to tell if its working. If both of you are completely happy with each other and the way things are going then things are going well I would presume. :) If you truly love each other go for it cause it's more than likely going to work. :) Good luck!

long distance relationships are always tough, and especally tough if you don't trust the person your trying to have one with, cut your losses and get out while the getting is good, be kind about it though and just blame it on the distance, that way if he moves back over here you could pick up where you left off.

To make a long distance relationship work there has to be a lot of trust - if you don't see each other all week or sometimes for a few weeks you have to be certain the other is serious about the relationship.  It is also good to have very regular contact.  One good thing about not seeing each other so often is that it keeps the relationship alive and you always have separate interests and therefore loads to talk about when you do see each other.  However, this type of relationship can take a long while to get off the ground - much longer than a normal one and there has to be a lot of feelings to keep it going.

If you love that person, then, yes. I believe that it will take a conscious effort on both of your parts. \n\nI am in a long distance relationship right now, and have been for almost two years. It works out great for us, because we both realize that we have to work at it. I'm not saying it is easy. I think about him everyday, and miss him like nobody's business. But, if you both decide that it is what you want, then, yes, it can be accomplished.

It's ok. It requires extra energy of course but as long as you trust each other and maintain constant communication then there should be no problem. \n\nBetter if you are not doing it for long term period. Soon one of you has to decide to move. But if you have no choice to do so, those things above will play important roles in order to keep your relationship work well. \n\nAnyway, short distant relationship doesn't give any guarantee that the relationship will work better than the long distant one, does it?

Long distance relationships are never an easy thing. The only way they work is if the two of you trust each other completely. It also depends on how well you know each other. It's a bad idea to go into a long distance relationship early on. However, once your bond is strong enough, time away from each other makes the heart fonder.\nIt's harsh, but if you can't trust her, then it's not going to work. \nBut when you do, it'll work out. If you truly love her, trust her.\nIt'll be a tough 6 months, but you'll pull through.\nHope it all turns out for the best...\n:)

it all depends on how commited you are to him. long distance relationships aren't easy. talk to him about it. be sure you cover every possible situation. and KNOW exactly how you feel about him. it takes two to make a relationship work.

No there is nothing wrong with that keep your long distance relation but you always need to complete it with a local physical contact relation... That will work...

It depends on how serious it is.\n\nBecause if both people aren't seriously committed, then long-distance relationships often don't work out.\nIn which case, it's best to let them go.\n\nBut if you guys are serious about each other, then do what you can to make it work.
