What do you think ? Can Long Distance Relationships Really Work?

You're wrong. It does work, though there are exceptional cases. |

NEVER works.. Out of sight is out of mind !!... Leave alone the ones which are still single.
Even those who are married with children. How many families have been broken with the husband being sent to China for work and the family left in Taiwan/Hongkong ?
Also, the so called "astronauts" ( thai hung yun) from Hong Kong and Taiwan shuttling between Canada and the East once in six months or a year.
Even "kweilow" expatriate engineers stationed in the Far East go back to find their wives have already shacked in with another kwei.

| It all differs from person to person...and how each sees the "Long Distance Relationship" to be..!!!
Yes some do work other times it doesnt BUT it all boils down to TRUST and UNDERSTANDING..!!! It might sound like B***S*** but that what its all about..!!!
Yes there are time when either party might have bouts of suspicions but what relationship doesnt have them..??
Bottom line there SHOULD BE TOTAL COMMUNICATION between both parties who are in "Long DIstance Relationships"..!!
COMMUNICATION IS THE GOLDEN RULE TO A SUCCESSFULL STORY & HAPPY ENDING |

What do you think ? Can Long Distance Relationships Really Work?
Depends on the person you are. If you are just contend with the thought that you 'have' your loved ones, then yeah it can work.
But if you want more than just the idea/thought, if you want to do things together, then it will never work.
That's generally also the differene between west and east. When I used to play football in Taiwan with the whites, I asked some of them about this, they wouldnt' give more than a month to long-distance relationship.
What is the point of a relationship if you dont' have sex, don't do things together, or smell and feel your opposite? Relationship is an adventure, and it takes two to complete it.
The idea of MSN chatting, e-love-cards, and rolling over the bed with phonecalls just doesn't sound too intersting to me.
Not only it doesn't work, I wont' even give it a try.

| I'd say yes and no as a reply to this topic...
a)Yes because... if you really believe and trust your "one-and-only-one", anything could be possible... people think outside the square to reach to their loved one some how... and then again, when it comes to trust ... he/she could wait patiently to meet up again (hopefully [:))])... if you know that you can truely love each other.. then there are no chances of losing each other ... you must understand the best for each other ... its not only about giving and sharing... its also about knowing each other inside-out ...
And if things flip upside down, its a totally different story.... by then you should have found out that you weren't ready for it after all ...
b)No, because many give up on hope . Perhaps according to them "what's gone is gone !!!" ... and yes.. it does give them a chance or rather an excuse, to get a second partner for themselves[:))] .. and as Roger mentioned before ... it also depends on the individual him/her self ... !!!! if you're the one who is devoted to "the-only-1" there is possibility for your relationship to survive...(patience,belief and the right time - thats all you need)... but if you're the one who gives up on things or believes in having a go in having new partners... then maybe its not a good idea ... |

Uuumm [:-?] Why would it have to be personal experience only uncle.?It's all about feelings and common sense in seeing my frenz going thru it also... [;)] |

| I've been having lots of long-distance relationships and they mostly survive without constant personal contact. One of the problems with travelling all the time is you just can't meet everyone everyday. The way I see it, one should be a friend and give without expecting anything in return. [>:D<] If someone decides he or she doesn't want to have anything to do with me, there's no disappointment, only a calm resignation and acceptance of the situation.
Another thing is to love yourself before you try loving others. Even aeroplanes advise you to put on your own oxygen mask before trying to help your child. [:p] |

| I dont think long distance relatonship works......in the beginning one may think that it can work but in the long run ,it is just not possible.WHat if you fall in love with someone else??You just never know.This is a strange world and stranger things has happened before..... |

| Well!! to understand a long distance relationship first of all this type of relationship does not necessarily qualify as a relationship. This long distance one obviously has both positive and negative points. Most people can probably think of many drawbacks like --how difficult it is to live and deal with the doubts and uncertainty that always seem to come up, etc.. etc .. etc... UUuuuummmm !!long distance relationship does require a lot of effort--> love alone just ain't enough[:D]You need to have trust, faith, confidence, and loyalty... [yap]blah blah.. Because you and your "special someone" will be distant, you have to find a way to still be in each other's life(not physically...[:p] hello!! we're talking about long distance relationships... hope u remember that. lol[:p]). There is such thing called "telephone" & "cyberspace", and usually daily phone calls work really really well (though your wallet may be badly injured, but I'm sure it's gonna be worth it [:)] if that other person is not worth it, then why bother to even have this long relationship thing, huh? USE SOME SENSE HA!! LOGIC LOGIC!! [8D] |
