yes you can,its seems to me that your relationship has a future..you know Im used to that relationship, me and my bf rarely see each other but we both feel the sincerity and the love for each other everytime we meet, the longest time were far away to each other i think 2 consecutive year and 1 year random..sometimes we broke up and reconcile again.. can u imagine that? but we chat twice a week and now were on our 8 yrs...So you two need TRUST, RESPECT and TLC ..as u tell fight exists but it gets over quickly, thats good dont fight for a long time of period and always keep in touch,always tell a story.. thats very important dear.and when you two meet take the chance tell him how you feel now your with him.good luck dear.

i think you should tell that girl that you love her before you go. it's different telling her in person than telling her that you do love her when you're in another country, say using a phone or in an e-mail. if you don't tell her now, you'll regret that the rest of your life so you should just come up to her and see what comes to your mind. trust me, it's better to be spontaneous than plan out what you're going to say (it usually doesn't work out fine when you rehearse the things you want to say). fix yourself up. wear something nice. bring flowers or anything that's going to remind her of you. then just speak. talk to her about how you feel. yeah, you'll have a lot of butterflies in your stomach but you'll feel much better when you've said you love her. although if she loves you back, it's going to be difficult for her, and for you since you're leaving. having a long distance relationship is one of the most difficult things to maintain in this world. good luck!

I'm also in a long-distance relationship. They ARE hard but I've been making mine work for over 3 years now. We have another year 10 months or so to go before we can finally be together permanently. We HAVE spent 2 of the 3 summers together so that's good but other than that it's usually a weekend once a month.\n\nThings we do to keep happy is...staying busy. I never let myself sit around doing nothing because I will inevitably start missing him and feeling upset about it. So I try to keep myself busy with homework and activities and friends, of course. We talk every night to stay up to date in each other's lives and email sweet, cute and funny stuff throughout the day. We sometimes send letters with really nice teabags to remind the other of us. We send pictures and make things that remind them of us so that when we look at them, we feel happy to have them in our lives instead of immediately going to "why aren't they here?" Long-distancing is certainly not for everyone. It takes a certain kind of person and a certain kind of relationship.

Long distance relationships are VERY difficult. You have to be able to trust the other person without question. I'm speaking from experience! To make it work you have to get to know each other first, and make the effort to see each other as often as possible. They say that absence makes the heart grow fonder, but in some instances it forgets. Just be careful.

I'll be honest with you long distance relationships suck, but it you are truly in love they are worth it, the key to making a long distance relationship work is trust, communication, honesty and you have to have faith in the person you are with.  You have to spend every minute you are with the person like it is the last time you are going to see them.  It is hard and it is alot of work, it means alot of lonely nites, but in the long run it can be an amazing relationship.

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.  :(

yes me and my boyfriend started our relationship long distance. we faught all the time, if i was ever home and doing nothing i'd be so mad that he wasnt calling not even thinking that he might be busy. we would spend hours on the phione and always fight. i dotn even know why. then when he moved back everyhting was just so beautiful. i think long distance is really hard and the fact that you cant see the perosn makes you mad and you take it out on them . i also think that phone conversations are hard. me and my boyfriend only fight on the phone now, cos when i see him in person he can hug me and i'll feel better on the phone its so less personal.\nso you guys have to realize what the problem is and then talk about it and try to make it work. try to see each other as much as possible\ngood luck

Long distance relationships can be very exciting because there is no routine. Each time you see him it is something special. Just the frequency needs to change. Enjoy it as long it lasts. You will notice when this relationship is ready for the next step. If you don´t see any progress at all you need to decide whether you want him as a platonic friend and whether you want to look for somebody else...

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.

Well, shes not across the world (im in california shes in florida) its hard because theres alot of times where we would wanna b close and hold eachother kiss and all that good stuff, we havent seen eachother too (july im goin to visit u bet ur sweet ass im happy bout that lol) we've been together for about 5 months now and i love her more then anything else...communication and trust are big if your planning on having a long distant relationship, if you cant do that then it will just fall apart.. if you are happy with who your with and get over all the bump that WILL happen you'll find out it was all worth it....... but thats how i feel :-)

I think they can work if done right. My boyfriend will be going away for almost two years. A long distance relationship will work if both parties are willing to make it work. Communicaton is key to everything. Keep talking about everything. Try not to get jealous of petty crap. Its hard, but workable.

Long distance relationships are a challenge....but if both want the relationship...then it can work...until you both come together in the same city eventually! \n\nAre you having second thoughts about him as a person, or is it just the distance factor? Analyze the reason behind why you want to break up. If it is just the distance, then u can overcome it, by talking to him, and mutually deciding to also focus on other areas of your life. See if he also feels that you both need to focus on your pursuits? The only way you will know is when you talk to him openly. Love also involves discipline. So, see what he has to say about this? Does he seem contented? Does he have similar worries? Talk to him. Are there plans of moving closer anytime soon? \n\nIf you have really thought this through, and want to end it, then you should break it gently, lovingly, calmly, and give him some explanations. \n\nMy advise right now is to talk to him about the "issues" before talking about "ending things". Who knows, maybe you can resolve those issues together, and don't need to break up.\n\nGoodluck!

Yes! Long distance relationships CAN work out! It is A LOT of hard work. I don't know what country you are from and what the customs are there, so I don't know how relevant or plausible my advice will be.\n\nAlways tell her your true feelings. Let her know your worries. Don't forget to tell her how much she means to you, OFTEN!\n\nAlways treat each other with honesty, trust, understanding, respect, and be willing to compromise and to communicate thoughts and feelings openly. This is the basic foundation of a relationship that both people need to work on to make it work, especially for a long distance relationship.\n\nIf you've both been waiting for each other six years, I don't think there's much to worry about. Once you have earned the money, go back and see her. Tell her and show her how much she means to you. Talk about both of your futures.\n\nFight for your relationship, but also be realistic. Sometimes no matter how much both of you care about each other, there are other things that get in the way, such as time and physical distance. Long distance relationships can work, depending on how willing both people are to put hard work into the relationship.

it depends how much you like each other. if you think things could work out then talk to him about maybe going on hols together.am from ireland and i fell for a girl from south africa last year, everyone told me it wouldn't work but we e mail each other every day and now both of us are taking about moving to london. i don't know what your situation is like but it just proves that long distance can work

Omg...there is so much to say about long distance relationships...I just got out of a long distance relationship about a month and a half ago, there are many many many things you should consider before pursuing a long distance relationship....we only lived about an hour and fifteen minutes away from eachother, but there will were soo many times when I Was having a bad day and just hearing his voice WAS NOT enough!!..you are going to want and need her by yourside at times when she can't be!...there will also be a lot of long, cold and lonely nights that you have no choice but to spend by yourself.I am not knocking long distance relationships, but you should really make sure you are ready for such a big step! you will have to be a strong willed person in order to make it work,because it is not easy! there will be times when you will see other couples together hand in hand, and wish it was you and her, or maybe a happy couple on T.V, but no matter what it is you will feel the pain of not being able to be with her as often as you would like especially when couples are all around you!.. but it isnt all bad though, sometimes it is very exciting! it also depends on how often you will be able to see eachother. we used to see eachother at LEAST every other weekend if not more, but it was still super hard and lonely when we werent together! my advice to you is that if deep down in your heart you really think that you guys can make it work, then go for it, and the wisest thing i can tell you is DO NOT LET OTHER PEOPLES OPINIONS INFLUENCE YOUR DECISION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so many people will have something to say about it, and will tell you it wont work and try to discourage you, DONT get discouraged...One of things that  kept me and him together for so long is that we didnt care what the hell other people thought about what we were doing, and in this type of situation you need to do the same thing, or else its not going to work, because people can be VERY convincing sometimes, and you just might end up missing out on one of the best things in your life!

Tell him! Most long distance relationships don't work out anyway.
