Does long distance realy work..........im not to sure?

it can. it really depends on how dedicated and determined you are to make it work. i've seen it work out pretty well, and i've seen it crumble completely. i've seen people in long distance relationships get married, and i've seen them cheat on each other because they're lonely and frustrated and weak.\n\nbasically, if you want to make it work, and they want to make it work, you can make it work. you might as well try because all that not trying means is that you lose them for sure, and you lose them now instead of later.

Yea, I feel for ya, long distance relationships are hard. He probably isnt playing a game, he probably is missing you. The problem seems to be the distance, so the solution would be to remove the distance. Move closer to him.

Yes but it depends on how the relationship is long distance. If it's temporary( like away at college) then yeah if both are willing to make it work then it will work. If it's some type of 'i met him on the internet but he lives in another state...' then i don't think so.

Long distance relationships are VERY difficult. You have to be able to trust the other person without question. I'm speaking from experience! To make it work you have to get to know each other first, and make the effort to see each other as often as possible. They say that absence makes the heart grow fonder, but in some instances it forgets. Just be careful.

IT can work as long as both of u do ur parts. You both need to knnow where u stand. No cheating on each other. And just give it some time and you'll both eventually be together, always. 2 hours is not a long distance at all..So it should be kinda easy. Every so often she can visit u and u can visit her...good luck

Poorly, and not for very long.\n\nSeriously, you have to have a LOT of communication. Regularly scheduled phone calls, and some random ones too. E-mails, chat and etc. Constant communication. Otherwise, the passion goes cold. \n\nIt's a lot of work to make a long distance relationship work.

Long distance relationships do not work. I was in a long distance relationship with a guy for 2 and a half years. We actually were together for 4 years, but I moved across the state a year and a half into the relationship. It got to the point where he would only call me while he was at work, and I could only see him on certain weekends because he was "busy", or I wouldn't hear from him for weeks. I heard from a friend that he had been seeing this girl I know, so I called her phone and I found out that they have been seeing each other for the past 2 years, and they are engaged!! I told her every detail of our relationship until I had her crying on the phone. I later heard she broke off the engagement. Needless to say, he called and cussed me out and our relationship is over. \nSo the moral of this story is that unless you truly know this person, and can have complete trust in him that he will not break your heart, don't waste your time,energy, or minutes on your phone with a long distace relationship.

lond distance relationships work only when both parties are into each other..make frequent calls..wish the other on his/her birthday...keep in touch..u know..stuff like that.

How far is the distance?  It doesn't mean that he IS seeing someone, just means he is either busy, trying to let you down easily or maybe he is seeing someone.  If you aren't together, then he may feel it's ok even if you don't.  Are you seeing other people?  I would suggest telling him how you feel and see where things go from there.  Long distance is hard and unless you are both committed, it won't work.  You need a lot of trust for a long distance relationship.

Long distances relationships can work..but a lot of times they do fail though, sadly to say...but in your case..you have no way to communicate with him at all..so its a bad idea to stay together..if you cant even talk!

Yes it works.\nDistance is not the end of the world in a relationship \nDistance cannot, and will not hurt a bond between two people that is based on mutual respect, trust, commitment, and love. \nAlthough you may feel like you are losing faith in your relationship at times, hold fast and trust your heart! \nI, like you, truly believe that love & relationships are what make your life special, and that ones built on love & understanding are always worth preserving, regardless of the miles that may separate two people. \n\n\nYOU ARE NOT ALONE ! \nAll across the world, there are couples just like you who are crazy about each other but are forced by circumstance to live apart..

Omg...there is so much to say about long distance relationships...I just got out of a long distance relationship about a month and a half ago, there are many many many things you should consider before pursuing a long distance relationship....we only lived about an hour and fifteen minutes away from eachother, but there will were soo many times when I Was having a bad day and just hearing his voice WAS NOT enough!!..you are going to want and need her by yourside at times when she can't be!...there will also be a lot of long, cold and lonely nights that you have no choice but to spend by yourself.I am not knocking long distance relationships, but you should really make sure you are ready for such a big step! you will have to be a strong willed person in order to make it work,because it is not easy! there will be times when you will see other couples together hand in hand, and wish it was you and her, or maybe a happy couple on T.V, but no matter what it is you will feel the pain of not being able to be with her as often as you would like especially when couples are all around you!.. but it isnt all bad though, sometimes it is very exciting! it also depends on how often you will be able to see eachother. we used to see eachother at LEAST every other weekend if not more, but it was still super hard and lonely when we werent together! my advice to you is that if deep down in your heart you really think that you guys can make it work, then go for it, and the wisest thing i can tell you is DO NOT LET OTHER PEOPLES OPINIONS INFLUENCE YOUR DECISION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so many people will have something to say about it, and will tell you it wont work and try to discourage you, DONT get discouraged...One of things that  kept me and him together for so long is that we didnt care what the hell other people thought about what we were doing, and in this type of situation you need to do the same thing, or else its not going to work, because people can be VERY convincing sometimes, and you just might end up missing out on one of the best things in your life!

From personal experience and I also have friends trying to make long distance work. Its sooooo hard! No matter how much you like or love that person its nearly impossible, especially since you both live in two different states. Have you ever heard of the expression, The right person but the wrong time. Dont hold each other back.

Long distance relationships CAN work!\nMy cousin's friend met her husband while she was touring in Europe and they emailed each other and spoke on the phone for another two years before they saw each other again.\n8 hours distance really isn't that much in comparison and I think perhaps he's just being a little pessimistic and lazy.\nSpeak to him, and if he's agreeable, set a time where you see each other maybe twice a month... find a place that is halfway between your houses and spend a nice weekend at a motel or something.  If it is true love it will work out eventually where you both are in the same place at the same time.\nGood luck! :)

I live about an hour away from my boyfriend; it has its challenges, yeah, but it works out pretty good. I think as long as you continue to communicate throughout the week you should do great - spending weekends together is awesome.\nWe've been seeing each other for almost 2 years now. \nGood luck!!

distance relationships are generally bad unless your trust level is extremely high. where and when do you fit the quality time. I am sorry you may want to move on at least until the distance becomes a non-issue.  :(
