    I've done it, but it probably wasn't worth the trouble. However, every person, and situation is different of course.

    Sure. My current relationship started out as a LDR, and we eventually moved in together.

    Yes, I did have previous LDRs that failed and learned from. However, this one may have worked due to how understanding we both were with each others time; like if he doesn't see me online he'll know I'm busy, sleep, or at work and vice versa. Plus, sex wasn't a big deal to us.

    Me and an ex tried a LDR when we went to different universities. It failed and I'd probably not do that again. I'd definitely never consider a LDR with somebody I hadn't met in person several times.

  • I tried before he only lived a hour away but we never got many chances to hangout. I have to spend more time with someone to grow stronger feelings and it just couldn’t work out so I ended it. But that was just one reason I ended it. But distance made nothing easier.

    I was in a ldr for a year.
    Wish the one I love would be in one with me now.

    Not again. She lived about 1000 miles away here in the US. I could afford to fly her to see me or fly to see her often, so that wasn’t a huge problem. But the distance and time apart just sucks and makes building and maintaining a relationship really hard. We did it for over two years. I would not recommend it to anyone, seriously.

    Long distance relationships are a time waste at best, an excuse not to form real relationships at worst. Something like 95% of social interaction is non-verbal. Text messaging is probably something like 2% that of a real, in-person conversation.

    People in LDRs need to value their time and attention more.

    I did it, and we're married now with a kid. We had to work in separate countries for a long time.

    Works for some people and not for others. Depends on the people and their patience level.

    I've tried and failed. It's not my thing, distance makes me forget people.

    If they can make it work.
    I think more often than not it is wishful thinking.

    Sexting and jurking off on camera again and again is boring

    Long distance never works out but there's always that "slim" chance.
