well...... i'm wondering if they work. see, me and this girl are about to go to college, (me to ucsd, her to yale). she's really important to me, and we've had a lot of memories. is there even a glimmer of hope?

If you both wan t there to be a glimmer then there is.

Mobile the love advisor?

been there done that, if you both want it to work it can happen. Me, I married the girl

I give advice and it usually works......just not for me

if its meant to be things will work out.... but once people get that far apart they grow apart...meet new poeple etc... so just give her the time and space and if its meant to be she will be back.... only thing good about it is that both of you will have seen some new things and if the old things are still important to you then u will no u are with MRs right... if not have fun with MRS RIGHT NOW....

P.S. IF ALL ELSE FAILS LISTEN TO MOBILE

Don't give the guy advice like that...going to need MMG Counselling soon

If you want to be with her and she wants to be with you then you work on getting it going. That if it's meant to be stuff is for fairy tales...

P.S. IF ALL ELSE FAILS LISTEN TO MOBILE

you know what they say.. if ya cant handle the answer to the question ya got... then dont ask.... truth hurts sometimes but that is part of life....

Blah to that...fight for what you believe in was/is my theory on things...though this is just them going to different schools which happens.

Not everyone can get into the same schools.

If they both want it to work then it will...that simple.

Why?

Because I said so and I don't think he's as lame as I am

Wow.. nice advice there.. n good if can setup a counselling section for those who lost/burn their money on scam site.. hehhehe

ahh, I'll give it my best shot. Its better to try and fail than to have never tried in the first place, right

I really don't think that would ever work out. You both are going to meat new people and it's going to be very hard..

These kinds of relationships only work out if both of the people in the relationship want it to work out.

Even if they want it to work out at first.. once they meet new people that's the end of it.

Noooo... if they really care about each other and they want it to work out, they would be able to resist new temptations.

ok, so another question, how many people know couples who have overcome the distance barrier?
edit // besides ryan of course.

whoze Ryan?

I know of alot of relationships that failed with this kind of situation...

Yes. That will depend on both party. Distance can't separate two human being if there's a true love.

I can think of two couples off the top of my head, my sister went to Uni and her boyfriend didn't, they are still together 5 years later.
My dad and his girlfriend lived in different countries for a couple of years at least.
If you both want it to work then it will work, it is possible to enjoy Uni without jumping on the bones of every person you meet.
And when you and your girlfriend see each other in holidays or whatever it will be like a honeymoon!

honeymoons ROCK!!!!

its the marriage that

I agree Alexeow.If you really love someone, you wouldn't even look at anyone else.And absence does make the heart grow fonder,Good luck Dtan ,hope everything works out they way you want it to

take me as an example...

i've failed umm... about 5 , 6 long distance relatioinships..
but still i love long distance relationship...

coz when she's living far from you, you're becoming single back (if u know what i mean)

No wonder you failed.

bigboy$ryan was the ryan i was referring to. again, thank you all for your input.

You can still talk everyday on the phone or with IM's.
Plus, how long is a semester, 15 weeks? It's not that bad.

Just depends on how much you guys love each other
Of course it can work. Depends how serious you are.

Think of it as a test. If it doesnt work out, then it might be hard but its all for the better in the long run.


My girlfriend was in the Peace Corp. for two years (with no phone) and we survived on writing letters. We are now married so it really can work if the relationship is strong enough.

I'm from the UK, and I now live in the US. Why do you think that is I wonder!!!

this is all very comforting. My extremely horrible day finally turned around, at least for now. thank you all.

Good for you Phantom...you moved to the USA which is the only way it can work.
I tried it 3 times with guys in New York but I didn't move over there so it didn't work. If you're not around physically it's just too difficult and plane fares to NY get very expensive.
However it is very exciting and romantic and I think that's what keeps it going for a while.
There was a drama called NY-LON about a long-distance relationship...it was very true to life...
It didn't work out..

However going to college in the same country isn't so bad and probably has a much better chance of succeeding especially if you both want it to and neither of you fall for anyone else. Good luck to you.

Wow that sounds really amazing. It must be tough and stressful fighting temptations and keep the relationship alive as well as trusting each other.

Probably that explains the aged look in your photo...if dat's you.
