I've lived around Europe and have had quite a few long-distance relationships.

In my experience, there are always additional challenges to overcome - over and above the usual ones in any relationship.

You can see some of them listed in this thread: absence of your partner when you really want a hug and a kiss, high cost of phoning and travel, lack of spontaneity, lots of your precious free time spent travelling . . .

just wanna know more about you...

just wanna know more about you...

Since posting this topic I thought I would explain how I felt. I have read everyones post on this thread and traken them all on board. Well i do think they can work, yes i know it is much harder not being in same town city ect. But maybe that can work better for the relationship I have been in relationships where people take each other for granted or just spend time with each other because they can not because they want too. What i want to happen is to make that bit of an effort to see the person you like and to make every minute count when you are with them. To do things because you want to not because you can. Yes you maybe lonely at times but maybe that keeps the love fresh and alive well call me a romantic but that is my hope..............

Good on you - hope it all turns out peachy for you.

Thank you all

your welcome
