Long Distance (do you think that this will work)

I know that in other posts i have said that i like a guy that goes to my school, well I have sort of moved on from him.

I currently like a guy, who I have been talking to since february of this year. He has helped me with so much since we started talking. Last week I found out from him that he likes me and I really like him. We would love it if we could go out but the thing is I live in Queensland and he lives in Victoria so there is a huge distance between us. We really really really really really want it to work. Our only problem is the distance, we are the same age. I finish school in November this year, but because of being in different states he finishes school next year. We really want to meet up soon and I am even looking at flights down so I can meet him.

My question is, do you think that things could work between us even though we live so far apart?

Please help me, we really want things to work.

Well if you both really really really like each other, then you guys could make it work.
i mean theres nothing wrong with a long distance relationship yeah ?

Why won't it?

Seriously, it can.
I must say it will be hard, rough and seriously take a lot of effort.
But, if you like him and he likes you enough.. You can make it work.

Im in a L D relationship for more than a yr. and i havent seen him in like yrs.. its crazy but trust me it is so worth while. its hard cuz u gotta KIT a lot, as much as u can. and u gotta trust one another... its hard work. but if u r true, then it can work.

my man is in another country like thousands and thousands of miles away, which is pretty cruel.. for 2 lovers. i consider u lucky, he's only a few states away...

In my opinion I think it could work out if you're both committed.

I'm in a long distance relationship at the moment and it really is difficult but worth it. I guess the distance kind of tests us but brings us closer together because he's willing to put a lot of effort into it as I am.

Again it depends on the people I guess and takes a lot of trust. But if you're both sure you want it, then go for it :)

I live in Michigan. My fiance lives in Alabama. Been together 3 years. I plan to move where ever she goes to college. It CAN work. But only with serious commitment and trust.

It can work if you make it work.

If you just make up lies about your day and not tell the truth he's gonna find out sooner or later and its going to be ruined. Trust me I was in a L D R and he lied and everything.

But I never gave up L D R's cuz you never know who will be your future!

I'm in a Long Distance Relationship. =]]. My mom seems to dissaprove however. She insists on me finding someone here and that ordeal. Yet I've failed to meet someone that will treat me with respect. I love my boyfriend =]].

BTW it can totally work with commitment and trust. =]]

I think that it could work but I know 4 people who dated someone who did not live in the same place as them and it didn't work they didn't know if the person cheated and didn't know what they did all the time and then the girls ended up breaking up with them and what not. So it could work just be careful and just trust each other.

We do trust each other. We txt about once a week. We both really want to be together, we have even started talking what we are going to do next year when he finishes school. We really cant wait till we meet each other.

I say GO FOR IT ! =DDDDD

^^ yup, go for it. you guys have to make it work if you want to

Long disance love. never works..

it is happening with me from 3 years. but nuthing happend

Your chances are so slim, that I wouldn't even bother if I were you. But, what do I know.

I've tired, it's never worked. It's pretty hard. But why not? Give it a try.
Don't expect too much though.

Just try it. it worked for me. but the thing is yall both have to make it work cause if you or him dont want it then its not gonna work

I was about to say go for it, but then I realized you said you'd never met the guy. No, no, no, no. Bad idea.

Lols I used to be one of those that would've told you that it never would've worked and you were wasting your time and were going to get hurt but...hehehe....I can't tell you that anymore lols

The guy I'm head-over-heels for lives at the other end of the country from me but he treats me better then any of the guys around here lols We're not dating but we love eachother even if we both date other people lols

If your willing to trust him and willing to take a chance and maybe even move to were he is then go for it =) Love knows no distance nor rules lols If you love him and he loves you and your both willing to work, because it is a lot of work and can make you want to give up sometimes because you two can't be there to hold eachother when you both need it, then go for it ^_^ Just one thing though, if you go down to met him then just be a little careful because not everyone is who they say they are and you could get hurt =P

My very best wishes and I really hope it works out for you both =)

Anything for love....go for it!

I was in a long distance relationship for 4 years! We're moving in together at the end of this month, so YES it does work. But you have to have A LOT of commitment and trust towards each other!

For those of you who say it cant work, can you please say why you think it wont work.

You don't really know who he is, just who he pretends to be on the internet. First of all, it's incredibly dangerous- but even if he technically is who he says he is, he's not going to be the same in person as he is online.

I'm mostly worried about the fact that it's dangerous though; I really don't think it is a good idea at all. Look up some stories on what happens to young girls who go off and meet someone they met online. There are too many stories that end really, really badly.

Not working for one doesnt mean not working for all.
There are occasions where it does, and even if those are rare.. It happens.

They can be horrible. But not all of them are.

If you really love each other no one and even the distance and time cant seperate you!

just enajoy and be contented on what you have now!

Hey doll
i believe it can work my cousin melissa lives here in nsw and her bf lives in vic they have been together for 4 years

The thing is he lives in Vic and I live in QLD so there is more distance between us then them.
I know that if we really want it to work that the distance really shouldnt matter. I sent him a txt the other week asking if we are going to do the Long Distance relationship thing, he said he would rather us staying friends because the last LDR he had ended badly. I understand that. eventhough we arent officially in a relationship, if feels like we are.
I'm asking your advice because I havent even had 1 bf and i have never actually known a guy that likes me, so i am a bit mew to it.

anyway thanks for your advice.

Ok

well from experiance thsi past summer dating long distance is GREAT while it lasts im mean you could REALLY love each other but one of you 2 are going to have a HUGE problem with the distance and it's going to end

Well Kerry, you didnt love him when you did then, right? Not till you met him? He was just your friend then, according to you. So you and your 'boyfriend' really didnt do it.

They almost never work..... sorry

Sometimes they work i had a longdistance relationship for almost four years...

It's all in the trust & commitment..
