Who says long distance relationships can't turn into something beautiful?!
Great list :)

Before my long-distance girlfriend left Canada to return to England, I grabbed a guitar and sang a creaky off-key version of "Leaving on a Jet Plane".

My performance was rubbish, but she later returned and married me. These songs work!

i'm tired of this kind of relationship..it really makes me suffocate..please help me

I had a long distance relationship for almost two years, most of it spent apart. these things dont work. save yourself the headache and heartbreak.

Actually, 'someone who knows'...two of the comment posters here were in long distance relationships and they actually did work.

The key - someone must move. Sad but true.

Even though it's in Japanese, Final Distance by Utada Hikaru is a really good song - and there IS some English in there! You can also find the English translation on Google by searching "Final Distance Utada Hikaru enlish translation". The M-Flo remix is a lot more up-beat, if the original is a little too depressing for you.

My view point is that if you really want a LD relationship to work, when there's a will there's a way. If both parties hearts are 100% in, they will work their bums off to make their relationship work. But once there is doubt, in either one or both parties, then thats when things begin to fall apart. If you want it to work, then it will if you're willing to give it all you've got!

My guy was just worth the wait and the hardships.. and I've been with him a little over two years now... which im grateful for!

My boyfriend is in the Navy, so even though we live in the same city its still like a LD relationship. Its not like I get to see him only twice a year, he's around for 6 months but its still hard. But I totally agree with Jules, you can make it work if your heart's in it. Although the separation is hard, he's absolutely great and totally worth the wait as well. And we are moving in together soon, and I'm looking forward making the most out of every minute we have together! :)

I agree with Jules and Redroses, I've been in a LD relationship for oh, 7mths now and still have 4 more to go, no visits. We've been together for 3.5yrs and lived together for most of it, and our hearts are 100% in it to win it.

It doesn't work out for everyone, and maybe it's not meant to for some people. My girlfriend was in LD after LD relationship and they never seemed to work... always cheating on someones's part.

But my bf and I have so much trust and committment to our futures together... we want to get married and have a family, and while LD is one S***load of work.. I've never questioned if it's worth it, and the distance has honestly only made us stronger not only as a couple, but as individuals as well. And I truly feel that the personal growth we have both experienced apart from each other only means that we will have more to bring to the table and contribute to out relationship when we are reunited. Our communication skills have also vastly improved and we are even closer than before he left, which I didn;t think was possible lol

my bf & i have been together for almost 2 years. he leaves for uni just after our 2 years anniversary & we're doing the whole LD relationship. im freaking out cos im scared im going to loose him. ive suffered a broken heart already & cant tell with another one. he loves me & i love him but can we make this work? im freaking out in my mind!

hi i was wondering if someone could give me some advice ive been in a long distance relationship for seven years now and i dont want to sound mean but im really really sick of it i keep hearing the same old thing blah blah we will be together soon blah blah blah maybe this year but i dont see him doing anything to get his situation together i work but he's been out of work for i dont know how long and i dont push him to do anything cause when i suggest something he'll just say i know already stop pressuring i feel that i might end up wasting my time waiting im going to be 23 yrs old in may coming up and it makes mecry cause im really tired of this situation please can someone give me some advice my email address is grnaple86@yahoo.com any suggestions comments

My second long distance relationship was 2 years long distance and now 2 years in the same city. Its still going strong :) There is good advice at www.coupledtogether.com/blog for LDRs. They can work!

My boyfriend and I dated for 6 years when he had to move a 14 hour, $2500 plane ride away. He stayed there for a year, when he returned he proposed. We're now set to get married in July 2010! :)

It's worth it! :)

They can work you just have to be strong enough to handle it. I know first hand.

well i think that ld's work for some ppl and others dont but when you have been in a relationship for such a long time like years then its better just to go about ur merry way its not worth to wait for someone that is not doing their part like some ppl in this forum have said it takes both of them working at it and when one person is doing all the work its not fair so i think that there are limits to ld's

I'm 16 and my boyfriend is 18 and in the air force. I live in Oregon, and his family lives there. I met him at a concert last summer and we definetly had chemistry. He told me about how he was joining the military and we talked a little about random things. After that, I never thought I would talk to him again. We talked a little online for a few days. Nothing after that. 4 months ago, he got back in touch with me and we hit it off. We fell in love. Completely. I have never felt this way. I care for him so damn much and I wish i could be next to him all the time. But I can't. He may take leave this spring break to see me for a week or so, but nothing's final yet. Longn distance relationships are extremely difficult. They are based soelly on trust. That's the biggest thing. If you can trust your loved one in a LD relationsip, then you have a really good thing. Cherish what you have. Communicate as much as you can. It can work. I know it can.

My Fiance is on the other side of the country for 6 months.... Im only on week 3... It suchs but i think the key is being able to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

my boyfriend and i dated all throughout highschool, 3 years. He is moving away to go to university in september, we're staying together but im really upset about it. I'm used to seeing him everyday, im not sure how we'll handle it.

This makes so nostalgic. I've decided to listen to them all but I don't if I can. The distance is unbearable. I just hope it all works out in the end. No one has understood me like he has.

We've known each other for more than 3 years but just hit off this year. We are 13 hours flight away and there is no light at the end of the tunnel yet but we are both prepared to make an end to the tunnel when time is right. Doubt and uncertainty occasionally hit me, but I believe we can make it.

i have a LDR...(different country) so far away..
i love him so much,although i never met him in real...it's about love..so i dunno the reason..
i just can wait,can this dream become real?
i meet him and marry with him...

LD relationships can work! me and my boyfriend live over 7,000 miles apart and have been together for just under 2 years. The distance does make it hard sometimes, but we are getting to know each other better every day.
And we do have a game plan- he is moving here as soon as possible, but until then we are making it work!

LDR is really hard but there are couples who are made for this type of relationship. I'm from manila (w/ no visa) and my ex-gf is from Toronto. We're lucky to meet once a year. We really tried but unfortunately we found it very difficult..especially the longing for each others hug, kiss, company etc..we ended up just arguing all the time w/c is the last thing an LDR need. Who knows maybe our paths will cross again. Good luck to all the couples in thsi situation. The key is open communication, trust, honesty and lots of effort.. God Bless and happy holidays..

Long Distance Relationship's Truly Can Work! me and My Boyfriend live 2,693 Miles Apart and we have Been together For Almost A Year. The Distance Does Truly Make It Really Hand sometimes but the fact were getting to know each other better everyday makes it better and ill be moving to him soon so were getting Through It Very Strongly!

Have faith in long distance...If you both have discussed a future after the long distance part then it will work.. That way every month you are away from eachother... looking forward to a happy future will keep you together.

My boyfriend and I have to do 6 months of the year long distance because of sports commitments. We are half way through and our relationship couldnt be better. We have planned out our future so that we both know this is just a mild speedbump.. the best is to come!

Dont give up! Love can do anything you want.

I'm kind of in a long distant relationship but were not actually boyfriend and girl friend if that makes sense. I feel like i am in love with him but i don't knoew if its love because i've never been in love before.

Love don't run...

I met him online 6 months ago. Been in love ever since. 767 days left until we're together.
