Yeah, I’ve done it. We lived 12,074 km (7502 miles) from each other for 4 years.
The pandemic and travel bans kept us physically apart for some time, along with financial and legal logistics.
But now we’re finally sharing an apartment together. 🙂
I’d say, it’s worth if you KNOW you want to spend the rest of your life with them and you’re BOTH willing to commit to all the work, challenges, and patience that it’s going to take.
In my opinion, distance shouldn’t be enough of a reason to end a relationship, if your bond is strong and your love is true.
But, if you’re still testing the waters or you’re unsure about the person, then no, it’s not worth it. LDRs are a LOT of work.
But if they’re really special to you (like you’d literally take a bullet for them) then you should be able to handle an LDR.
P. S. Lovin’ your memes as always, haha. That last image from the Reddit post though… TOTALLY relate. 😂
I was in a long distance relationship before and it's something I don't want anymore. It's a mess and you might feel that you're not in a real relationship.
However, I'm more than open to the idea of dating someone from another country. I'm not interested in dating men from where I live.
I haven't and I don't think I would unless I could fully trust him and I can tell they put me as a priority and such otherwise things just don't work out
I live in United States of America, to the outside world, people think that here in U. S. roads are made out of Gold and money grow on trees. So, for most guys, any attempt to try to date a girl outside of U. S. in hopes that she might become their life long parter would be a fatal and extremely costly mistake. Why? because for most girls finding an an American CITIZEN is a Mission, most girls are not looking for an American love, they are looking for guys who can bring them there for long enough for them to be able to permanently establish themselves, so they can live their life's independent and free of any strings attached (guys who actually brought them here and helped them to stay here).
@WhiteBoyChill If you do your own research, you will come to an inevitable conclusion, that a Huge percentage of women who are seeking dates abroad live in 3rd world countries. Women from nations like United Kingdom, Australia, Germany etc... basically rich and highly developed countries are not really interested in dating American men. Where woman who live in 3rd world countries are desperately trying to date/marry men exclusively from United States, United Kingdom etc...
@WhiteBoyChill Your last comment tells me much about you. You have Never tasted desperate, you have never seen the True ugly side of life and you have never done things against your will, things that degrade and rotten your soul for a simple thing as paying your bills, so you don't have to sleep under the elements in the dark.
I've dated a broad and a dude LOL! but yes i have fk'd in other countries with people i didn't know. Bartender in Greece he worked in my hotel, a maid in spain that also worked where i was staying I got the hint after she came into my room while I was in bed for the third time LOL!, and a fellow vacationer in Cancun that i kept seeing without his wife in the bar I gave him head three times in bar bathroom on three different nights
nope... this is actually the reason why my ex-girlfriends and I decided to complete a cycle in our relationships... we just could not avoid and we could not with a distance, especially with the one at the other half of the world
Never have, never would. I don't want to date some poor man from some poor country with radically different cultures, beliefs, language, etc. wouldn't survive that
