It sucks. Try being in Nebraska, and having him in Myrtle Beach.

100 miles…or a thousand miles makes little difference. It can still be unbearable at times. But…if everything is right….then it can work.

I know. It’s hard, but if it’s meant to be it will be right?

if its meant to be, it will happen.
although anyone trying a long distance relationship knows…
it takes effort, and it sucks.

I just worked out I live about 700 miles away from him, but I’m not going to let myself feel depressed about the distance, cos I know I’m going to see him soon (Just over a month away! It’s nearly been a year…)
Long distance relationships can work out – my parents are living proof of that =]
With some effort, and not letting yourself feel too down about it, it should all work out how it’s meant to. I know it’ll be hard, but in the end, we all pull through, one way or another. Good luck ^___^

long distance really doesnt work.
i’ve had experience..chicago, new york and tennessee..no matter how much closer, it didnt make it better..it just makes it worse.

He lives like 4 cities away and it seems so far away … I know it’ll work. If he’s the one it will work

My friend’s parents met in high school. One was from Indiana, the other from Arizona. They long-distance dated all through college, and now they are happily married with two kids. I am from Ohio, and my boyfriend lives in New Mexico. My friend’s parents give me hope. It will happen if it’s meant to :)

My husband is from Jamaica and I am in NJ. Waiting for his visa for 1 1/2 years was the hardest thing I have ever had to do, but man, did it make for some HOT romance when I visited every 2 months. It really showed us how much we were willing to go through to be together.

My guy has been deployed stateside for 2 years and is currently deployed for 14 months overseas.

We grew up together but during our relationship he’s been mainly in new york on base, while i was in Chicago. I’ll have to survive 10 more months after his deployment is over, while he goes to live in new york back on base.

It’s hard–very hard, but long distance DOES work and it was so worth it in my case.

I am in Brazil, he is in England. And after everything we have lived, we have realized that everytime it gets even more paifull. We still in love, we still miss each other, but the agony is really bad. We are too young, so right now things won’t work.I don’t feel like I’m gonna find this kind of feeling ever again, it happens only once.
It’s a shame, because I really belive he is the love of my life

i think my best friend may be doing the same thing. no matter what distance, it is hard on everyone. the worst part is that he wants to leave me, for the second time.

He was a foreign exchange student from france. He came to Michigan. We fell in love, but he’s back there now… It’s only been a few weeks but I miss him so much. We aren’t trying long distance.

We have the same problem. I met her in the business program in maryland. She finished her exchange program and went back to France. She’s been gone two weeks and I miss her so damn much. I’m flying to Paris next week to be with her. But we are going to make the long distance work before she gets a job in the US.

You know what really sucks? When your husband has been deployed in the Afghanistan, in the heart of the Taliban, and you might not hear from him for days — and you definitely won’t see him for at least a year.

But love knows no distance! If you are determined, and you love one another, then it will work out.

Even so, it doesn’t matter if you live two minutes apart or two hundred thousand miles apart. Away is still away, and it’s still difficult.

I was in Virginia. He was in Nova Scotia. Five long years we spent apart, trying to be together. We just celebrated our 7th anniversary. :D If it’s right, it will eventually happen. If it’s right, it’s well worth the wait.

You’re going to be in Illinois, I’m stuck here in Texas. We’ve got over a month left, and I’ve admitted my feelings. But I feel everything is still incomplete. I’m not ready for this, at all. And honestly, I don’t want you to leave. But you have to, and I’m happy for you. It hurts though.
Just, don’t forget our friendship.

He is in Mexico, she is in Japan. I am in Mexico and hopelessly in love with him. I hate having to watch the distance hurt him. It makes me want to hurt her back.

try to be in South America when she is in New Zeland!
and let me tell you what… its hard as fuck!! but after 2 years we are completely done, she is a good friend, and i feel great without her!

He lives in Germany and I live in Mexico, we met in a boarding school in South Australia 2 years ago and we’ve been “best friends” since. We’ve visited each other a couple of times but i still wish i’d do a 5 minute walk to get to see him. We do all we can to see each other as often as possible but distance’s a bitch and life’s life. We are young but whatever it is we have will last forever.

As long as there’s trust and love, distance is irrelevant.
Yes, it hurts more.
Yes, it will be almost harder.
But the moments where you see each other will be worth the wait.
And you’ll never take eachother for granted.
Just stay strong and smile.
I’ll be thinking of you.

I feel like I know who wrote this.
I wish things had ended differently. I still love you so much more than you could ever imagine. I’m sorry and I will for a very long time. But it’s just so hard. So so hard. And I’m just not strong enough. I hope you can find someone who’s more patient than I am. But I can’t deal with this anymore.

We both lived in Florida. He moved to Texas. 1000 miles isn’t fair. He said he loved me, says still does, but its kinda hard to hear from the distance.

Met in Vernon, BC two years ago. Didn’t realise I was in love with her until last year when I went to visit her. She told me she was in love with me when I told her I was enlisting in the army, and now I realise that chances are it won’t work. We only live a province away, but her life is where she is, and my life is where I am. I could never move to be with her, and I could never ask her to move to be with me.

I hung out with a guy off and on for almost 2 years and only dated him when we were both back home. We are now dating officially and I have never been happier, I miss him a lot but choosing to date him has been one of the best decisions I have ever made. He is in the Coast Guard and is out to sea every 3 months with no cell service and only email.

It can work.

I know how you feel. I’m in Philly and he’ll be in North Carolina for the next 2 years. But it’s important to not force it when it’s not forever. I tried that once with someone else and came to that realization a year too late. This time it’s real and it’s forever.

yes its hard.. i went to El salvador for 5 months and my boyfriend stayed in Cali….. i left for some very personal family reasons…. and my boyfriend supported me all the way we had only been together bout 10months, he tried to call me alot we did web cam and just tried to have alot of communication .. it was the hardest thing i ever had to do… fights were common cause of the distance and there were some problems that caused a breakup for a week but we realized we LOVE eacother we got bak together, i was havin a hard time gettin bak to the states didnt qute have the money for my ticket.. he paid for it.. and we are together again.. and im the happiest person right now.. and now we have been together 1yr and 4months :) and we are plannin a wedding

I am in Ontario. My best friend in the entire world went to Spain for an exchange program–I never thought I’d survive without her, but I did.
My (ex)boyfriend went to AUS– I never thought I’d survive without him, but I did.
People may be at an unobtainable distance, they may come back, they may not, they may change, they may be the exact same. It’s a risk you take to live your life.

I’m in Finland now, he’s in the Netherlands. In three weeks I’m moving to Scotland as moving in with him in the Netherlands didn’t work out for financial reasons. It’s okay though, I’ll be closer to him and we’ll have more money so we can see each more often. We’ve been like this for three years and I can’t imagine my life without him. We’re meant to be and we’ll work it out. Even though it hurts like hell to be apart, it would hurt much, much more if I gave up on this. I don’t want that and I never will.

wow i really could relate to this one. i liked it a lot. my boyfriends in new hampshire and im in alaska. sometimes i think he never cares about how hard it is for me and makes no effort in trying to convince me otherwise but for me hes worth waiting for. i just hope he feels the same way… everyone in a long distance relationship stay strong! you will have a great feeling of accomplishment and it will give a brand new appreciation and respect for dating. at the end hopefully the wait will be well worth!

We both left the home we lived in for 2 years together to follow our dreams. I’m in South Carolina and he is in Ohio. Neither one of us is willing to make a sacrifice for each other. Neither one will leave. The hardest part now is that he won’t let me go. Everything just seems…stuck.

sigh… i was the one who left for college. We’d been together for all of high school, we thought we were forever. i only moved an hour’s flight away, but he wasn’t strong enough. I really thought it was going to work but we barely lasted a month long distance. it still hurts

I thought of my mom and dad when I saw this. I thought how he’s in North Carolina and we’re here in Georgia.
Because my mom made a decision, and is now regretting it more than ever.
It’s been 5 years, and she’s still praying.

This shouldn’t be a secret.
Tell them how you feel.
