Long Distance Relationship Would Last
For
In My Case, Long Distance Relationship Really Works, But 8 Takes Really Both Us Working On It Very Hard.there R Conflicts, Miscommunications, But We Open Them Up, Start Discussing Them, And Patching Up. We Have Doubts, But We Talked About Them. The Good Thing For Us Is We Are Intimately And Seriously Committed. We Are Already In Our 5th Year This 2008, But We've Bin Through A Lot Of Struggles And Trials. Still, We Move On, It Is Simply Because Of Faith, Prayers And Open Communication.

 I like this question, but it's tough to answer yay or nay. It all depends upon the couple that's involved in the relationship.
If you both are truly sincere, love each other enough and want it to work then you can do it. But then there are those that it just doesn't work out.
I personally, was involved in a long distance relationship years ago and it didn't work.He couldn't remain faithful and he ended it.It was a painful experience to say the least.
If you can do it, then I'm all for it.
The best to both of you.

 Of course they do it as long as there is faith and trust between the two couples.technology has also made it simple to bring far people closer to each other.Respect also count but if one does not have those characteristics it is brought to a beat down

 It is very hard to make a long distance relationship to work but in the long run it is writhe the wait.

 Well for now I will say YES. I have been in a LDR of 6 months. I am in the US and she is in Italy. We plan to get married. I have traveled there 3 times so far and I am planning on at least a temporary relocation until we marry and decide where to nest. Trust and believing have been issues. So far we have ridden through our ups and downs. We are currently in a desert experience with some of her doubting. I don't think she realizes the importance of total trust and belief in your spouse.

 Yes, it can last if there is no lack of communication between both and both have developed trust for each other and both never hide anything.
Long distance relationship usually requires more time but If understanding develops its luck.

 I believe that long distance relationships do work but it takes a lot of effort on both sides. It also takes a lot of communication, trust, loyalty and especially honesty.

 My mom has a long distance relationship with a guy from Australia. They have been together for over five years and it has worked for them. Any relationship can work if both are committed to it. Yes distance makes it harder, but it still can work.

 You are right, Long distance relationship needs a lot of struggles and commitments. I personally on my 5th month of LDR and sometimes it feels so hard that i want to give up. However, if both u and your partner can communicate well and have a commitment i believe everything is going to be fine =]

 I have a friend who had a long distance relation and know very well that it can work. He has now moved to where she is and they will soon be married.

The good things about a long distance relationship is that it builds trust, strong communication and commitment.

 They work, I'm proof of it. My husband lived in TN and I in CA, we date 3 years (traveling, phone calls, email, IM's etc) until he was able to relocate to CA and we got married. YAY!!!

 I think long distance can work if your both committed and you obviously are.the only trouble is if you cant agree on where to live if you want to set up home together.

 I don't they work but then again i have seen it happen before. ( but not often) i believe that if it is true love then it is OK. But for me in my opinion i think people should stay away from them all together.

 I had to be separated from my husband for over a year as I returned to England from our home in USA to look after my mother until my brother and I finally arranged for her to go into a nursing home. It was agony, but could not be avoided. We telephoned each other every day, but it was no substitute for being together. I was so relieved to step off the plane into Chicago into my husband's waiting arms! That is not to say that I regret having cared for my mother. The separation left Bob and I stronger. But we love each other and would never want to be apart unless it were absolutely necessary.

 If you dont see someone you are in a relationship with very often you will eventually grow apart.
