i had a bf in ireland and it last for 2 months, but we almost never talked, if its the right one it can last for a lot more than 2 months

I would say its okay if you meet up every now and then, lets say every 6-8 months and talk on a regular basis.

You can skype, that's the best I can say right now (:

No email. Write letters and actually talk. On the phone.

I think if you are living in different countries and are too young to travel or move to be together there is a small chance it will last very long. On the other hand depending on your age you or him could possibly move or travel to see each other or you might not have to wait long until you are old enough to do that so in the end it's hard to say how long it will last. I think it depends how seriously you are taking this relationship then there is a chance you will last.

Long distance relationships are hard, they require a lot of trust and compromise. Staying in to talk to your significant other whilst your friends are out takes commitment, facing the comments you'll get from friends who don't understand. Also for you you'll have to be prepared to work around the time difference.

It is possible it just takes a lot of effort, commitment, time and trust. Basically make Skype your best friend, give your all and hopefully it'll work out. But be prepared long distance relationships often don't work especially when two different countries are involved. Have you ever met? Do you intend to? Because meeting would definitely help your chances at staying together.
