Long distance relationships suck i am talking from experience i agree with you there are some truth you will never find out behind you, so you absence might be taken for granted. phone calls (video calls inclusive), text messages, a visit once a while won't make it work. Some are lucky, it works for them while for others it may not work. |

 It depends on both of you. But I would like to believe that it myte be more crious when you are married with kids. But Gfee to Bfee,. Nope I can't say how it would look like. As For out of syte could eventually lead to out of mynd. Any way I keep one Old aunt as a Gfee at Warri while am Based In Lag. So Brothers and siters It might work for you and not work for me. Good luck. CIAO

@All
It does work,but it depends on the both of you
And constant calling can be the right solution in such a relationship.
But really if the girl is not trustworthy don't think about it.

hmmmmm long distant relationship is not easy oh, if both couples are not mental,emotional andphysical strong, they will not last.
The key to survive is communication(phone,text,web e.t.c),trust and prayer, it not going to be an easy journey but with God all these are possible  .
heheh but am glad the LDR is almost over 4 me , it all worth it at the end of the day

I can actually relate to this topic because i was in a long distnce relationship and it did work.Though not easy(expensive as well u want to try how much phone calls, flight tickets to visit etc cost i don't even want to remember the money now)it works based on the level of commitment and also as someone said earlier God.I guess my husband really made me understand at some point that he really wanted to be with me no matter the physical barriers that actually existed.Gosh, we used to talk more than people who lived together.We knew what the other was doing at each particular point that people around us sometimes found it annoying(jealousy people).Like i remeber in the run up to our wedding he was talking to his bestman and i walked in.That one now thinking it was news said that he had found the their suits eventually after so much hassle and i said yea i already knew and he's like 'but he just left the shop.apparently we were on the phone througout the suit search with me giving ideas and alternatives.Even my mom used to ask if there was nothing we did not tell each other.We just knew that the best way to make it work was to communicate at all times.Fortunately i used to work in a telecomms firm in naija so i had relatively cheap calls.I am sure if he also quantified how much he spent on phone cards people would scream.but it was a sacrifice we both had to make as well as saving to travel to and fro.It was really difficult but i am glad its over now and i get to spend the rest of my life with man of my dreams.But make i no lie temptations would always arise and it did for me but i guess this where the level of commitment comes into play nad how much your feelings for that person is true.

Yeah
You can maitain a long distanced relatnshp and it will surely work out for real, i know what am telling you and i can't deny the reality in this fact because am speaking from Xperince.
All you need is to pray to be lucky with the partner you'r about to meet i.e if you should me him/her, they should range between your expectations. and now that we have internet all around us, u both shuld exchange pics to know ur fate. but if you already know yourselves, the relatnshp can go on so long as the guy is caring from a far the girl will have no choice. i know women very well, it's what u give and how u gives it determines what and how you get it in return ok? so it works
the girl am dating today, i met her through muzik africa and i love her so much till date,

Well, right now, i'm in a long distant relationship that has lasted for three years now and its still working. But men the thing no easy at all. Once in a while he visits and vice versa. I think its based on trust, commitment and love. A lot of us don't know what true love really entails, it has to do wt a lot of sacrifice and u hv to 'suffer' for whom u love ( I used that word for some reason), it's not just a bed of roses. Love endureth ALL things. Anyway, We are still praying that we will eat the fruits of our labour. Cheers

I am in one now and its really difficult. We have been at it for about 4 months.
The worst part is when you start having doubts about your partners loyalty.

I bet it all depends on who is invloved
If you are an impatient person, don't venture into it
If you find it hard to trust people, don't try it
If you are not resilient, don't go near it.
As for me, out of site is out of mind. I need her close by especially in difficult times
My heart will most certyainly tilt towards that person that gives me more attention.
Sooo it a 50 50 game. If you are emotionally strong and physically capable to withstand the situation, you can do it.

long distance relationship is quite challenging but if u can earn that trust, it will definitly work. am into one and its three years old. these era of free midnight talk and cheap sms, there shouldn't be much problem. the only missing link is the physical contact but its to make u guys strong.

I once had a long distance relationship (for a year). Now it has been four years and we're still together.
1) Trust your partner in whatever he /she does and it must work both ways
2) Be truthful to one another
3) Send each other meaningful and loving and memorable sms or email or letter (Do remind him on how handsome he is and how you really appreciate him)
4) Always support each other and give each other alot of recognition and encouragement
5) Do not be so pushy. Alot of relationship do not work if you contstanly call and sms your guy like 10 or more times a day. . . . . . . . Ad if you go asking so many questions about his whereabouts, he will get very annoyed and might just leave you.
6) Try to make efforts to see each other whenever possible
