Long distance relationships most of the time don't work out. Though it doesn't hurt to give it a try, but the don't usually don't work out. You will find someone again. Love should be something significant because love is special and good feeling. If you this this "someone" continue the relationship. If you need anymore help shoot me a Vm and we can talk more. I hope everything works out for you.

It might or might not work out. Being in a long distance relationship is about committing yourself to the other person who is in it. Are you willing to do it is the question.

You being so young it probably won't work out (I'm not saying that you're immature).

Piece of advice: move on. There's alot of fish in the sea. You'll find someone else.

Well said Blood.

You're 14. Committing yourself to a long distance relationship is a lot of work. Are you up for that at your age? When you're young, it's so important to try and date a variety of people to learn about what you're looking for in a person, to learn about communication skills, and just learning about relationship dynamics in general. Teen dating is very shallow and barely scrapes the surface of what a real life, romantic relationship is like. My advice is to move on - there are PLENTY of other fish in the sea that you should try to get to know. Locking yourself into a monogamous relationship at 14 is really shooting yourself in the foot in that regard. Why is it that I see kids, younger and younger looking for serious, long term relationships? Whatever happened to summer flings, and 2-3 month relationships? Trust me, you're not going to miss the love of your life. Is it really worth it to struggle with such a big commitment (which is hard enough for full grown adults to do let alone a teen) when that time could be used to develop relationship skills by broadening your range with more people? Just a thought. I hope I didn't come across patronizing, but that has been my experience and I want to be able to help you in any way I can.

I've been in a few long-distance relationships, none of which have worked out. I just think that we are all too young to worry about relationships as a whole. Just wait until you are out of college.

Back to your question, long distance relationships can be very sketchy. You never know whether or not the other person is cheating on you, what they are saying, ect. My advice is to just forget it and let them go. You aren't going to find "the one" at this age.

Good luck to you in the future.
