How do you deal with long distant relationships US to UK?

Phone calls, webcam, letters, and honesty in all areas.  You must also spend time together, not as a holiday, but truly exposing your good AND bad traits.  Long distance relationships can work, but only if each person stays transparent.  If the communication and honesty/trust  isn't there while dating, it won't be there after marriage. Visting England and visting America is so  much fun, but a marriage doesn't come with a guarantee that if you get past customs you will make it.  Questions:  how do you both handle anger?  How do you handle differences in race, religion, customs and traditions?  Good luck. I dated my Dutch beau for 4 years, moved to Holland and married him. We are married 10 years now, and have moved back to California.  But it wasn't easy and isn't easy...we had to stop pretending that we were on a holiday. :)

It's going to be pretty tough!!!\n\nBut ask yourself a few questions.\n\n1> Do you to continue this relationship because it MAY have a chance to grow into LOVE... and thus marriage?\n- if you do not believe SHE is the woman you could marry... then cut it off.... you can't "date" someone so far away, and it's not fair to them, as they should be trying to find someone close to them that will care for them.\n\n2> Do you EVER intend to move to Korea?\n- if not... how likely is it that she will ever move to wherever you are? If these things aren't likely... cut it off.\n\nYou can have friends in another country... and I highly recommend that the two of you stay in touch.\n\nBUT.... think about the questions above.... don't cause yourself heartache.... and especially do not cause her heartache.

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.

You should look for someone closer to where you live, the long distance thing is lame....

I am sorry to hear about your predicament. However, The Republic of Ireland has different laws and regulations regarding divorce than the United Kingdom, being a seperate nation and independent from the UK. That said, 5 years does seem like a very long time to have to wait.

Its hard when you are in a long distance relationship. Your insecurities seem to triple. \nLet him know how it makes you feel. Let him know that you know its just you but that you do have these feelings and ask him to be more considerate and call when he says or let you know if he wont etc.\n\nAlso get a passtime something you do just when you are worrying. \nGood luck! I know from experience it is tough!!!

Ricos Love,\nI have been married for five years now.  Prior to that, my wife and I endured a four year separation when we were both accepted to professional schools halfway across the country.  It wasn't easy, let me tell you.  But three or four things helped.  Even though it was a long haul, we knew it was temporary.  There has to be a plan to reunite.  Second, communication was key.  We stayed in contact on the telephone, and took every opportunity to meet.  There was a little college town in Kentucky that was exactly half way between our schools, and we arranged a mini-vacation a couple of weekends per year.  That made it possible for us to be together even though we had little time and couldn't afford plane tickets. Third - committment.   It takes hard work and dedication!  You (and your partner) need to go out of your way to feed and strengthen the relationship. You need to trust each other and be comfortable with each other.  Otherwise, the distance will just breed jealousy.  Finally, luck.  In any relationship, long distance or otherwise, you are taking a chance.  If you want to win the prize... you have to buy the ticket.\n\nGood luck!

Acknowledge your feelings and enjoy your time together.  Some soul mates come and go and some stay forever.  Good luck.

Actually, I know about long distance relationships all too well. They can work as long as the communication stays very strong and there is a bond between you. Eventually, you're going to have to work on getting the distance fixed, but as long as your connection stays strong, it'll be just fine.

Well, i do not belive in long distance relationships.However, i do have these kind of relationships. My bf lives in another country. I might tell taht it depends on the person, and his feelings, and his values. But still time kills any feelings.. But u know do not be upset anywayz. And deffinetly do not feel depressed, and try not to listen to anyone, bc everyone will tell you that long distance relationships can't exist. Just  enjoy the moments you have now, do not be upset at him. and even thou if you will decide to separate, (hopefuly you will not)do not feel upset. That's just life, you got to enjoyo the moments, and i'm sure you had realy nice moments together. Do not listen to anyone. Just  stay calm, enjoy urself and ur relationships.. Ciao

Definitely let her go.  A long distance relationship is hard enough when you have control over your life enough to travel and see each other - but at this stage in your life there is no where it can go.  Remain friends if you want but you should have someone you can go to the movies with and kiss at your age.  It's best for the both of you.\n\nPeace!

Long distance relationships are hard to maintain. I don't think there is a specific length of time you should wait because I don't believe you should wait at all. It sounds like you need to just live your life and not count on this fellow being "the one." Like my Ma used to say-"there are a lot of fish in the sea". If it is meant to work out things will progress but why not get to know someone who lives close. There is a lot to say for building a relationship based on spending time together doing things not just talking or e-mailing each other. LOL

Find someone else to date.  Or just immerse yourself into your group of friends.\n\nAnd who says long distance is impossible? I'm in a long distance relationship right now and it's working out great!

i am travelling myself. it is difficult to keep communication with someone back home that you may have feelings for as you are always thinking of them. therefore you aren't able to make the most of your adventure abroad. relax.\n make the most of whats in front of you today
