I've been dating a guy for the past 1 year or so..Everythings working for us.. except I'm done with mac. And now im moving to some different place. There's no way in hell that I can stay here. My bf has a family here. SO what's your opinion on long distance relationship? or is it better to just say goodbye?

Plus the place i'm moving to is 5 hours away (with a plane)

I'm sure Lizzie can help you.

If you truly love him, you already have the answer to this question.

Asking someone here for an opinion, I already know how it is going to turn out.

I move forward the only direction
Cant be scared to fail, searching perfection
Gotta keep it fresh even when we sexing
But don’t be mad at him when he’s on to the next one

nice sig, that song goes hard

Hard to say, if your relationship is great and you love each other I would try to make it work. Finding a decent guy is hard, but if you think it will cause problems then break it off. I personally would try the long distance thing just because I like to be sure before I make big decisions.

What I meant to REALLY ask here was... do long distance relationships even work? Anyone tried it?

Honestly if you are asking if long distance relationships work, I say we call it quits. Love is the union of two souls, they are never distant. So if it requires you took think so deeply into this matter, i guess there's no love lost...no love found.

For me it didn't. But again it depends on how strong your relationship is, mine wasn't that strong as I found out.

I agree with people saying "if you have to ask, you already know the answer".
I've been with my boyfriend over 6 years, and if I had to move 5 hours away, there would be no doubt in my mind that we would stay together. I believe long distance relationships work, but not forever. When he's done school, is he willing to move to you? Are you willing to move back here to him? Are you both willing to compromise and move somewhere in the middle?
If you haven't even thought about or discussed this kind of stuff, or neither of you have plans to move for each other, I don't think it would be worth the time and effort (for both of you) to commit to a long distance relationship.

I had a long distance relationship a long time ago, and no it did not work. However, I moved 5 hours (driving) to another city last summer, and my boyfriend and I are closer than ever. But it's because we both know we're in this relationship for the long haul. When I moved, we didn't question anything other than "What kind of webcams and long distance calling plan should we get!"

Depends on the relationship you have. I usually find that the less time you spend apart the more you drift apart and the more you realize you are OK without seeing that particular person.

It's up to you though...is he close to being done school? What are your plans after school?....these are important to consider before you put in the amount of effort that will be required in a long distance relationship.
