May people believe that long distance relationships/online relationships are stupid and impossible.
As a person in an LDR, I will be the first to say that it's not for everyone. There's a certain level of trust that must be attained before you are ready for an LDR.
It can be frustrating. Not touching the person you love can wear on a person. But I'd endure torture for my boyfriend.
So, what are your thoughts?
Could you be in a long-distance relationship? Or is it not for you?
Could you trust a significant other enough to leave them alone for most of the day?
Would you be wiling to wait months/years to see your S.O.?

I believe I could be in a long distance relationship, because as life goes on distance will come in between you & who you love at least once. I do think that, for myself at least, in order to be in a long distance relationship I would have had to have a solid relationship with that person near me beforehand it becoming a long distance thing.
I DO Believe it can work out meeting people via internet, but I think theres a better chance of it working if you've had that basis established first.
As far as trust goes I'm sure I could. I think everyone might have they're moments of distrust here & there but faith is moving without knowing. And in a long distance relationship, obviously I believe faith is a key essential in such things.
And if I was in love with that person & we had a good thing I would wait forever for them. As cliche as that is. I really have no problem staying loyal.

Well hello there, Hanawie! ^_^ I glad to see you again. The online dating thread we were in before kinda died...(whatever, the ignoramus with the pink font was getting a bit annoying stare ) And, funny, I was just thinking about making a thread here about long distance....
...And you're completely right. It works for some people, but it won't work for others. *shrugs* It all depends on the person. I also find that online dating can sometimes be better, because you have to trust the person you're dating to not lie to you. You have to trust them more than in offline relationships somtimes, because offline, you can just ask one of their buds, or their family directly. Which you can't always do with people you meet on the internet. Not to mention you actually have to talk there is much else you CAN do. It'll help to see if you can actually get along with someone while talking for long periods of time.

Long distance relationships can work, and they have. Personally, I'd only do it with someone I've met i RL. I would wait months-years for someone I love. It really just depends on the person.

Me personally I've only had one long distance relationship. It did not work out so well for me. The abscence of physical interaction was just too much for us. The arguments started to happen on a daily basis along with insecurities from both sides adding more fuel to the fire.
I dont think I could go thru with it again, but I think they can work depending on the couple. The trusting part of the equation doesnt bother me so much, but the lack of seeing each other is whats hard on my behalf.
