You find someone you really connect with. They live in another state. You meet and it's amazing. Your life is here, theirs is there. Now what? Seems all the people I'm interested in are long distance, is there anyway to make that work? Did that once...it worked for awhile...I believe it's possible where there is a will....

Lots of good advice and opinions, thank you all. For those that have had them, was talking by phone, email, IM enough between actual meetings?

It has to be for the time being until one of you says OKAY I can't take it! Then, like they said, somebody will be moving!

I did the LDR thing and after a year and a half I moved to Tulsa from Kentucky.... it lasted 10 months. The problem - we found you don't really get to know someone very well doing the weekend romance thing.
I tried to be smart and ask myself if I would be happy living in Tulsa if it didn't work out. Good thing I did!!! |

I'm not looking any further than today. I don't know where we'll be this time next year, next month, or even next week. I only know that for today I am in love with him and that I don't imagine tomorrow will be any different.
If ours isn't a relationship that lasts, I will still consider myself fortunate enough to have been in his life, for however long that may be. I count my blessings each and every day that I have his love and I've no expectations for the future. For those that have had them, was talking by phone, email, IM enough between actual meetings?
It's never enough - nothing takes the place of his being physically with me. If I didn't always want more of him, I doubt we'd be in this relationship. However, like I said before, I'd rather be away from him longer than I like than be with anyone else all of the time. |

"I'd rather be away from him longer than I like than be with anyone else all of the time." Powerful words there spoken from experience. I am so glad you have found a connection, Chrissy. Sending you good vibes, hugs and whatever else you need while you decide whether or not to pursue a LDR.

Thanks Honey, I need it. Get hurt not trying, could get hurt trying. What a choice.

That fear can really be something to overcome, huh?

Well, two things. You can not try, and never know. Perhaps kick yourself later. You might fail, but in this choice you surely will.
OR You go for it. You give it your all. You hold nothing back. OR You stay alone the rest of your life. Those are the choices today. |

Well, when you look at the choices there really isn't one is there. Fear is a terrible thing. |

Yep. And it can be paralyzing. Question is, do you listen to it?
