When you are young, it's a clear chance it's not gonna work out. When you are a lot older, it still might not work out, because of work and how far they live. People really only want to be with people who live near them.
Really to me I guess it depends on how far they live. If they live farther than two hours away, to me that's long distance.

You have to be committed to make it work, like 110%. Relationships are all about trust and long distance relationships are even more so. And if you really want to make it with the other person, then you can't let little fights get in the way, they happen a lot. But if you ever doubt them it's best to end it.

The likeliness of it working out depends on the distance quite a lot. Like if it was a 4 hour train ride then you could make it work.. but if it was a long flight costing 100's then chances are it wont work. To be in a relationship you need to meet that person really.

Good in gaining confidence and learning a bit about how the other gender thinks, but from a practical standpoint it's nearly impossible to work out unless you two have a way of regularly meeting up and are adults. I'm not going to go on with this whole "it works if you're committed shit" because I guarantee you 90% of all online couples who broke up will have claimed they were committed before. Funny how affection skews one's judgment.

They're difficult, and I mean extremely difficult. My parents work in Spain and that really sucks, we're close, but nowhere near as close as we could be. I also have some extremely close friends who live in Sydney, Australia; literally the other side of the world, and some in Canada. It's hard sometimes to chat, as you can't do something together like you used to. It really sucks.

Tis a fair estimate, but its worked for 3 so far (i know, still a short amount of time, but its workin out really well.) While it is a hellova drive, I am workin on getting my pilots liscence so it wont be as hard. My advice for people looking into long distance relationships, Especially at our ages, dont be in a relationship thats much further than mine (about 8 hours) because it becomes so hard to see eachother, and unless you have a pilots liscence it is gonna be reallyyyy expensive to try and see them (although with the liscence its still really expensive)

I can beet your time traveling lol, to see my bf i would have to go for a long long flight! like 16/18 hours lol! I live in spain and he lives in the USA! We talk everyday I trust him 200% because i love him (whats the point of love if you cant trust) and one day (next year I hope or maybe even this year if I get the Cabin Crew job I want! I will meet him!) I have promised myself I will meet him one day!!!:yes::yes::yes:
If you are strong enough together I think it can work! If you dont have trust (as someone said above) IT WONT!
Good luck to everyone who has/hasnt got a long distance relationship!

If they love each other enough, it just might work.
I have a friend who has a long distance relationship, and they are together for like 6 months.

well my opinion is that i think its really hard to keep one. because you dont see that person that much and you dont know if she/he is just playing you. but really what ever floats your boat.

Eh, if you want hope and don't believe the commitment thing works: Alabama --> Ontario, 2 day drive (ish). we've been together for a year, he's coming to see me in about 3 weeks. Take that stereotypes.

I think that you can have a long distance relationship if you arent planning on being too serious. If youre serious than i wish you the best of luck because youre against the odds....

I've seen ones that worked and ones that didn't. I could never do it, physical affection means too much to me.

They can work out if they both truly love and trust each other
Im actually in one now. About 23 hours apart. 9 months and counting

I'm currently in a long distance of relationship of sorts. My current boyfriend while does live in the same city as me, he is in the RAF and is based a four hour journey away. We've only been going out nearly a month now, so I don't know whether its going to work or not. He comes home most weekends and I'm planning on returning the favour on weekends when he doesn't come home. Darn school exams keeping me at home. I don't know whether its going to work out for us, I'm hoping it does but who can say.
As to long distance relationships I think it depends. I've never been a big fan of the relationships where people have never even met each other, I'm just too into the physical. However, people are different. I don't think you can say a relationship is going to fail or work depending on the distance, it all depends on the people. I never thought my current relationship was going to work out, but it seems to be doing quite well so far so I don't think anyone can say either way.

i think it depends on the circumstances, and whether you realy want to be with them. Long distant relationships are sometimes the only way people can be together, as long as they do spend time together it may work, however i have no experience on long distant relatinships but if i really liekd someone, i would do it x

I think it can only be classed as a relationship if you've met.
