Well the question is smiple really do they work?

in my experiance the answer has to be a no i dont know if it is me or not but i was with my ex for 3 years before we moved in together and we found we could just not live together. I think we had grown used to a few days a week and got into a groove we spoke and tried to make it work but then when i was made redundant that was it 24/7 and the arguements where flying. Just wanted your opinions what with the age of internet dating and meeting people from all over the world

yeah it did work for that long but i guess it just wasnt meant to be

yeah i think it does work, ive been in them and as long as you put in enough effort it can work.

I think they can work if both of you put the effort in. Ive been in one before though and found it hard to cope with, its great if you split up though coz you know you wont bump into them!!

well iv just been asked to get married to someone in scotland >.<

long distance relationships work if your serious i guess

The title of this thread is misleading. It seems the OP didnt break up becuase there were long distances, but becuase they couldnt live together. WTF has distance got to do with that? I want my 5 minutes back

In my opinion NO they dont work. I dedicated 13 yrs of my life to a man that lived 7 hrs away from me and we only saw each other four times in those years. We talked a lot on the phone but like i said we met in person only 4 times which wasnt enough for me. In the 13 yrs we were on and off all the time because i was getting frustrated that he wasnt committing to me like i wanted him to. We had even talked about moving in together and getting married but then he bailed on me on that subject. So anyways now we are the best of friends and i can talk to him about anything and he's always there to lend me an ear or shoulder to cry on so to speak.

You saw him 4 times in 13 years? Sorry but youre an idiot then.
