So I have this friend I have had since 8th Grade, and me and him were actually pursuing a relationship right before I joined here. Well, suddenly he lost communication with me and last thing I heard was he wanted nothing else to do with me pretty much. I later found out it was because he moved to another state. He added me on Facebook yesterday, and me and him started getting to talking. I later found out he still has feelings. Me and him talked about it this morning, and now... ME AND HIM ARE IN A RELATIONSHIP! :yeah:

I honestly don't know if or I'll ever see him again, but I am just going with things because it makes me really happy and stuff.


I'm just wondering, has anyone ever had someone they love move away, and if you did, did you keep the relationship, or are you still in the relationship?

First off, good for you.
Second, I've never had a relationship. (you should already know that, Madie :P) Closest I've come to that is this girl who used to go to my school until fifth grade. Then, apparently, she moved to a town near by me, then a few weeks ago she moved to So. Cal. We were talking the other day and it was nice. She said she remembers me but she really doesn't. Why? I've changed ;) But yeah, it was nice to talk to her again

Of course you will see him, if you go on vacation near there, have a party and are able to invite him (if he can get to you somehow). And when you get older, if it still lasts, move in with him in your own house.

I never really had a real relationship, so it hasnt happend to me. I did have a good friend (girl) that moved to a different school..so thats the closes ive had.

I had a girlfriend over 4yrs (except for a year in the middle when we were broken up) from when I was 14. At the start of last year, just after I turned 18, she moved away for university. Up until then, even though we were opposites in so many ways, we were for the most part basically inseperable. But when she went to university, the time together cut right down, she didn't have much time for me and within a few months she called me up and ended it so she could date a guy she liked at university.

So from my experience, even though you have history of physically being together in person. The lack of that moving forward in a relationship may cause you trouble down the track, especially with him going to a different school and all. I really hope your relationship works out, but I would just be prepared just in case it doesn't, based on the distance.

It can work, but both of you are going to have to work hard to maintain things.
Remember to communicate as much as possible.

I had a long distance relationship once, it didn't turn out well and chipped off most of my time.

But hey, there might be a slim chance that it will work, good luck.

To avoid what Stephen went through, my ex-girlfriend and I decided prior to her going to college to break it off so we could both move on. Long-distance relationships rarely work out without a definitive plan to meet again in the future permanently. If there's no real plan to physically be near each other on a daily/weekly basis, relationships can't progress to a serious level. It's possible to sustain what you have, but it's very difficult to maintain for a long period of time. I wish you the best of luck, OP.

Congrats. (:

And you never know. I've never really had a long distance relationship, but my friend Alex's boyfriend lives over 1000 miles away, and they had never met each other before. So this summer Alex finally flew to California to meet the man of his dreams, and they've been happy ever since.

I guess what I was trying to say is if it's meant to be, it will be. Just be happy. (:

I've only had 2 relationships in my life. 1 was a relationship with this girl who lived across the street from me, but back then I didn't have a clue on how to be a boyfriend, so she broke up with my shortly after that. Now I'm in an online relationship, so I'm kind of in the same boat you are, but we've always known each other online and only met recently. Online relationships are always hard. :(

Well, he said so far it's gonna be a year. So I'm hoping he'll come back when it's up. Plus I think he still has some family here so he'll probably visit. But either way, I don't honestly think me or him will end it anytime soon. We are really happy together and It's already been over a year since me and him last dated, and we still have feelings through it all. So I hope it lasts between us.
