Here some questions to open this topic clearly.
Why most of people afraid to start it ? is that because of less loyality in our generation ? or trust ?
in the last years i've seen very weak trust and less people are serious about relationship (long term) most of them just fun hookup, one night and run awat..

Most of ppl who ask for long distance relationship aren't serious

Long distance relationships are not easy, dating someone closer to where you live is a lot easier, and you are more likely to find someone local because not everyone wants a long distance relationship. If you are considering a long distance relationship you need to think about relocating, because you will want to be together at sometime in the future. The positive side is that you can learn a lot about each other by email and Skype calls before you decide if you want to meet each other, but the downside is travelling can cost a lot in time and money and you will need to meet several times before you really know each other. They can work out but not to be entered in to lightly in my opinion.

Welcome to Mingle2 and good luck in your search.

hi

Long distance relationships are hard. It stinks not being able to get together with gf on whim. It is nice to be able to get watch tv, hangout, etc every night.

they dont work

never tried but going to

LD relationships do work, but require so much more from each person! Sincerely, honesty with yourself, and writing, expressing every thought, talking with each other several times a day.. and also meeting somewhere - maybe for a weekend in 'neutral places" on this glove - to talk, to enjoy each other, or discover things which are tough to live with.. - LD relationship should be affordable... However, more investing (time, money, emotionally) means more cherishing it, more stamina, compromise to reach the dream...
There can be cultural differences, and there can be personal differences (incl. values, humour, manners, ambitions, how-we-spend-free-time, also those related to intimacy, money, children). If both take place - the relationship is doomed...

hi

I spent 2 years in an LDR that began here on Mingle. Back then, my situation allowed me to feel that the distance would only be short-term hindrance.

But now....I'm don't feel that my personal situation can afford me such a luxury.

In a LDR, at least one side needs to be prepared to make some sacrifices. If both are serious, at some point somebody is going to have to pack up their belongings and move closer to the other. Before then, to make it work will require at least occasional visits. The longer the couple goes without seeing each other in person, the less likely the relationship will be a success.

Currently, my situation does not allow me to be that guy. It would be unfair of me to ask a woman to take on those burdens instead.

If she were to do so on her own....well, I'll deal with that when and if it ever comes up.

Been their done that! "BAD IDEA"

Yes

Hi I think it's better to understand first

ya shure

that's so true

hi

u are right

hello

Good for you, wyndall12345... give it try, you might just be the one to succeed.

The problem with long distance is..
At one point you are going to want to be with the other person and cannot..
And it's going to happen more than once in a while.. and it's really really going to suck..
And then you're going to start to think why am I doing this.. why am I having a relationship with somebody I can't see at a moment's notice...why?. And then you're going to think why can't I find somebody that lives in my city close to me?.
And then it starts.. you start going down that slippery slope.. you start thinking why shouldn't I date somebody that lives in my city.. somebody that is here for me whenever I need them..hmmmm....

Make way for the Snowball Express..lol
