Been there ,done that, got the teeshirt, long distance only work if you are both willing to commit 100% , in my case is was i doing all the giving and travelling, and she wouldnt meet me 1/2 way, after doing a hard days work and then travelling 4 hours, only to be told its inconvienant when you get there puts a damper on it, and yes i did call her before i set off and yes i did drive all the way back so 8 hours driving 8 hours working makes for a long day. so i wouldnt have a long distance relationship again, not worth the hassle. but that doesnt mean it wouldnt work for others.
