they say distance only makes your feelings stronger....

well my boyfriend just bought a one way ticket to winnipeg and he said he might be coming back in a month or 2 but he isnt sure....

he says he wants to come back because of me but he's whole life is there..... the only reason he lived in vancouver was with his brothers... but his parents are there and i dont know what to do he suggested breaking up so we are both free and not tied down with waiting

but the thing is i dun wan anybody else

WHAT SHOULD I DO?

no offense.. but long distance relationships never work.. trust me.. i

mine lasted almost 2 years, it can make u stronger it just depends on the dedication on both sides

If you believe it will work it will. But dont realy take the ticket just yet, think about it first, is it the rational thing to do. You are gonna leave your freinds behind, and all that other stuff. Give it some time first.

"no offense.. but long distance relationships never work.. trust me.. "

Don't say something you know isn't true.
Maybe the majority don't work out but my parents managed it for 7 years before my dad finally could move to be with her.
So don't say never when it CAN happen.

^They must have been very dedicated, to last for 7 years. Wow.

You can tell your boyfriend that you don't want to see other people, but he may feel that it's best. In that case, there's nothing you can do.

If it's meant to work out, then it will in the end.

long distance relationships DO work. my bf was in the army for a year and stationed in hawaii. we wrote to eachother everyday and called when we got cellphones. and we would stay on the phone for hours a day. and we're still together. but of course he came back eventually.

Well, it really depends on how much you love him. If you're having your doubts and you don't believe that no matter what happens your relationship will be as strong as it always was, it won't work.

But, if you feel like this wouldn't change anything and you'll still feel the same for him every day then I think you could pull it off.

If you're having doubts, I would say just break it off with him and start something new.

I do think some long distance relationship do work, but for some reason I don't think yours will. I apologize if i should mean, but it seems that your bf isn't that into you..I don't think it would last even if you do love him..cause it sounds like you love him more then he loves you.

Long distance relationships work... they are just harder than other relationships... but phone calls and letters help a great deal....

Change your boyfriend...

Most of the time long distance relationships never work, but it's worth a try.

I think it depends where you & your partner started from in the beginning; if you started out in a long distance relationship to begin with then yes I believe that you & that relationship won't last for long or much longer, but if you start out close & then your relationship some how becomes a long distance one I think the chances of your relationship lasting are better.

Right now that's where I'm at. My boyfriend suddenly, but not surprisingly, had to move away back to his home town ('cause his mom got a better job offer). We see each other every weekend (we don't have Friday school), we call each other up three times a day, talk on MSN when we're on (but the phones better 'cause we aren't always on)... So far so good. It still hurts not to be in one another's physical presence, but we believe we can make things work in our favor. When people heard that he moved away they gave me that look; "awe", & presumed that because he moved that we broke up. That's just plain stupid! I'm not going to break up with the love of my life just because he moved away, I'm better than that! Besides, technology today has enabled people to be able to keep in touch & keep up with long distance relationships... Not that I'm contradicting myself now.

And please don't give me that "...even though we rarely got to see one another our relationship lasted a little over a year...", that only proves that you were able to make that relationship last; able to prolong it amazingly, but doesn't prove that you were able to make that relationship work--'Cause that's what relationships are about; not how long they last but how you made that relationship work (when in the long distance relationship). In the end you broke up anyways & didn't even really see each other from the start, that doesn't make you a good example of a long distance relationship. A good example of a long distance relationship is couples who are still together & who see each other more often than not.

I guess it all depends on how much you love eachother and what you are willing to go through to be with one another. I remember i had the same problem a year or two ago...my ex who i really cared about moved to Europe after we had been together for 5 monthes. We tried about a month or two to make it work..but we both hated the fact that we couldn't see eachother or comfort one another...

If you are willing to give it a shot because you really care about him...go for it. Just know that it's possible that it won't work..

Distance CAN make you stronger if you can handle the distance. They`re tough, but they can work. As long as you trust the other person and are loyal and mature enough to handle the distance of a relationship than it will work.

Who are we to define what constitutes a functional relationship?

Sometimes they do and some times they don't..it just depends!!!!
