Long Distance Relationships
Posted By: Andrea Bannister on June 15, 2005

Yes long distance relationships do work. It's hard not being able to see that person for a long period of time, but if you're in it for the long run, it's worth the try. My boyfriend and I are going on 4 years together, 2 years of which is a long distance relationship, (he's in Daytona Beach and I'm in Tallahassee) and we both know that what we have is forever and that the long distance thing is not permanent. But if you have doubts then maybe you should let it go.

Long distance relationships are hard I've done it twice and it sort of worked well I knew I could do it but my ex seemed like she couldn't and didn't trust me for some reason, but if you can do it then stay with that person don't cheat b/c thats a waste of time why be with someone and then cheat or why tell them you wanna stay together when you go away for college when you really don't

Long distance relationships rarely work. The ones that do work are due to hard work. I would say that if you can handle not seeing your loved one for months at a time, then go for it. But make sure he can handle it, as you don't want him to lose faith in you and start cheating on you. That's the other thing...you never REALLY know if someone's cheating on you in a long distance relationship...

you can do anything you want to do. You never wanted to do cocaine , I bet you never did it because it was there. If you feel like you want to stay with someone, stay. Your first year of college will be full of amazing experiences. Make sure you want to be in a relationship and stick to your decision

Yes they can be as tough as close distance relationships.
Try reading Song of Solomon 8:6-7 and Jer 33:3,6.
Just offering my 2cents worth and wishing you the best Sis.

p.s. I can write so much on this area...
