 lol. I tried so hard at two of them and failed both times. The first one was when i moved to Killeen Texas when i was in the 10th grade. the secound time is when my ex-girlfriend moved to chicago. the we started seeing other people and she married the person she was seeing. _________________ http://zenblade9.deviantart.com/ |

I like this idea so much that I am going to try and do the same. |

long distance relationships are stupid because you need to be in close contact with someone to be in a relationship. _________________ But I cannot discover any advantage except in honor, in glory, and in right action.

I'm going to say relationships don't work in general. _________________ "Anything with the power to make you laugh over thirty years later isn't a waste of time. I think something like that is very close to immortality." -Hearts In Atlantis |

This thread reminds me of the John Donne poem 'A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning'. _________________ Power is only pain It’s probably better to have him inside the tent pissing out, than outside the tent pissing in. "Can we get control of an individual to the point where he will do our bidding against his will and even against fundamental laws of nature, such as self preservation?" -memo from 1952 Project ARTICHOKE

It really depends on the dedication of both people to making it work. It's hard. |

Obviously the long distance part would need to have trips to see each other here and there, and it couldn't go as long distance forever (at some point someone will have to move). But with modern communication devices, it certainly can be maintained over the course of a short duration (such as the 1 1/2 years I did with my college girlfriend who is now my wife). |

Skype was a lifesaver though. _________________ guitarfreak217 wrote: Everyone, listen to Leigh. She knows what's up. theantrider wrote: My jaw hurts and I have an ulcer.
