Do long distance relationships work? I met a girl on my Europe trip and she lives in Minnesota and I live in Texas. We talk all the time and we are really into each other. Is there any advice anyone can give on this topic?
Update: Well she is moving down here next year so all for the better!

This next year is going to be one of the hardest ever. But, if she's what you want, fight for her. Long distance SUCKS. I wouldn't wish it on anyone. My boyfriend lives in Michigan and I live in Florida. We never get to see each other, but I'd rather this than nothing. You two are going to have to talk, and both of you will have to understand that there are going to be times where you feel like you can't take it anymore. If it's what you want, stick it out. I wish the best of luck to you :) and on days when it gets virtually unbearable, just remember, soon you'll be able to hold her in your arms and all this won't seem like such a big deal anymore.
THe exact same thing happened to me... Except I met him in Colorado...but it worked great for me until his mom banned all communication...( read my question..) and honestly I would just go for it, take a risk. What is meant to be will always find it's way
Are you planning on visiting her? Or having her fly over to you?
The only way a long distance relationship can work is if you guys see each other every once in a while. If you're just communicating via phone/email, it's not really a relationship.
welll I would say keep talking,dont like stop talking to her,if you guys like each other still then keep getting to know each other you never know she could be the one,but long distance is hard espcially out of state long distance,but if you 2 in your hearts believe that it would workout and you guys trust each other fully then I'd go for it I wouldn't give up
It takes a certain kind of person to be able to be in a long distance relationship. I don't recommend it if you are a really physical person that needs constant affection and contact. The cons are missing out on that "honeymoon period" where everything is like a dream. Also the being unable to express love in a physical/sexual way is really- really rough at times. Arguments are also not fun in LDR's.. cause the problem doesn't go away until you completely talk it out. The fear that the other person will jut hang up the phone and be done with you is always there especially if you are very insecure.. With all those cons said there are many pros.. I don't believe that there is a better way to actually know someone so completely as through LDR's .. so much talking and communicating builds a great foundation for if/when your relationship goes to the next level. The anticipation of seeing that other person is a force that build and builds and its so extra wonderful when you do get to be together.. You never take that contact for granted like in a traditional relationships. Its not easy, but if this this person is worth it to you, then go for it. You will always wonder what if, if you don't. Good luck..
With the start of school, many of us are returning to the dorm rooms, or the apartments we share with our roommates, who at times can be untidy, lazy, crazy, or even worse. Or you can be the lucky one...
