idk, i would if it presented itself, but i'm to the point where i just dont care at the moment.

Hmm I'm starting a long distance relationship and I see peopel saying that it didn't work for them. I guess the question is how far were you willing to go? See the way I look at this is I'm willing to give everything and that means if she wanted me to move up there I would. To many people get involved but are not ready to change there life or actually take a chance and live a little. So is that far to the other person if there willing to do that with you. I think not,so knowing this it takes both to be willing to go all the way. So for those of you that said it didn't work how much were you willing to give of yourself?

They are great, but it only will work if, in the long run, someone is willing to movie.

or move rather..

Life at times is about risk. Nothing risked nothing gained. You just have to be cautious and be able to feel it out. I met the love of my life online many years ago. We were together for a darn long time. He was in Michigan and I was in Maine at the time. Now here I am again. And yes I will do it again. Just be careful and make sure you take your time......

The only distance that concerns me, is being in arms length from my intended...

I was always told growing up that you'll never know unless you try... I think that I might give it I try if i were to find the right person... i'd rather give a try and have it fail then be left wondering for the rest of my life What If? I just don't think that I would be able to move... my family means a lot to me... yes they are spread across the country but the family and friends that I am close to are here in Minnesota and I don't think that I could leave that... tried once... went to Florida to live with my dad... stayed 4 months and ended up back here

I am doing it now--I am in North Myrtle Beach, SC and Suzy is in Huntsville, Alabama--about 10.5 hour trip. I have found my soulmate. It is so worthwhile if you find the right person!!!

i agree, if you find your soulmate, it is definately worth it. you may have to work harder in the relationship but it will be worth it in the end. i had a long distance relationship for 5 months and then he ended up moving closer to me and then we were together 4 years. we really got to know each other when we were apart and made me want to really work at getting him closer. even though we are no longer together, we are best friends now.

When you find perfection, an odometer doesn't even come as optional equipment.

long distance wouldnt work for me. i need my man next to me in bed just about everynight. unless its poker night, then he's flying solo!!!

Personally I am having the time of my life.

sorry but i'm not sure never worked in the past beside i have kids at home and if she does who moves when the time comes a mean my son is in high school dont really want him moving to a new school so close to being a senior. and i would never ask her to relocate her kids so i guess it would be just an ldr and thats it so what would be the point.

Weird but fun

My first LDR lasted 25 months, though the break up was not fun at least it was a learning experience.

Now I'm with the second, and everything seems so well,
I just hope this will be the last!
I'm dead tired!!!!

i'm not a big fan of long distance relationships. if you have already been together they can work for awhile but when you first meet someone and you can't spend much time together to see what they are like it makes it a little difficult for me to determine if i would pick up and move for that person.

toolfan had it exactly right, if neither is willing to move, it will never work out.

And I'm having the time of my life as well Just because there are naysayers does not mean that it can not work...just simply means it didn't work with that particular person...
If a man goes off to war and is seperated from his loved one...does it end...yes in some cases it does...
My Grandmother met a man...it was her best friends brother. they met through mail...became penpals, as he was in the war...They fell in love through their words...And the day he came back from that war...she met him at the train station...One week later they married...They spent their whole lives together...

lived it for 20 years so I guess it works till the kids are gone .. then your alone

Generally doesn't work.

Anything can work if you really want it bad enough. It might not be easy but if it's something you want, distance shouldn't be an issue.
