Whether you are in one right now, or have been in one previously, or are on the verge of possibly getting into one, share your stories  For some basics; Where are you each from?
How long have you been talking?
How did you meet?
How often do you get to see each other? |

Me and my girlfriend are both in the army, and right now we are exactly, 948 miles apart, and will be untill i return from my basic, in october. we are both from the same town in missouri, we met through facebook, and before she left we basicly lived together. i think long distance relationships depend on how much you actualy care for that person and in my case love. i love her and i know when we can finally be together all this being apart bulllshit will be worth it(:

Well the last relationship I've been in was long distance. It actually was my first relationship ever.
I am from Germany and she was from Lakeland, FL. I really loved her and wanted to visit her in May (good thing I haven't bought my plane ticket yet)
Well we've been talking for almost 4 years, but got together 8 months ago.
I met her one night on twitter, she was doing a livestream. I instantly felt this .... spark. Then last year, I was so wasted one night, that I drunk!confessed her my feelings.
We didn't get together instantly, because she wasn't sure about this whole "long distance thing". After we came together we talked every free minute (WhatsApp, Twitter, Skype). We even talked about serious stuff like kids at one point or another.
Then, out of nowhere, she stopped talking to me. I haven't heard from her in almost a month. Instead, she started to get all lovey dovey with one of our mutual friends. No explanation, nothing. I always told her, that it could always happen, especially with long distance, that you fall out of love or fall in love with somebody else. But I wanted her to just be honest with me about it. I would have been, if the roles were reversed.

the girl & i did the long distance thing for about a year officially, but spent six months prior to that "just talking".
we were eight hours apart, both living with our parents at first. Once i moved out on my own she visited me once every 3 or 4 months.
we became official in April '06, she moved in December '06.

My fiancé and i were long distance for 2 years before we lived together. We met online in a random chat room, so i guess you could say it definitely was fate that we ended up together! The 2 years apart were horrid, but i guess in some ways made us as strong as we are today. We based our relationship on talking, we learnt everything about each other and would talk in some form for about 12 hrs a day. Love at first talk ;P Still together now, wanting to marry each other (if its ever legal), planning on buying a house, maybe kids…  life is good |

So the girl I currently like is actually an Ex from Missouri whereas I am from Washington. Her and I became friends through a mutual friend that I had met through an art website. We instantly clicked, and I even helped her through a bad relationship. We started dating about eight months after we met. I had just turned 17, and I flew out to see her over new years. It was magical, and I loved it! Sadly, I broke up with her because she felt a lot of anxiety because her parents were very anti-gay. She was always worried they would find out. This was a year ago, and though I have dated one other person, (currently not) I am still madly in love with this girl. She is currently in a relationship, and I am happy for her, but I can't help but want to be with her still. I am hoping one day it turns around, or maybe one day I will move on.

My wife and I were seperated by distance at two points in our relationship. First, when we had only been togehter for a few months, I had to go to England because it was required for my studies. I lived near London for a couple of months and she had to stay at home in Germany because she had to attend classes at uni.
The second time was a couple of years later when my teacher training was taking place about 200 kms from home. So we had to spend the weeks apart but I was still able to come back home on the weekends.
At both points we were actually living together and I had to leave temporarily. It´s hard to tell which phase was harder. The first one was shorter but I wasn´t able to come home inbetween. The second way longer but I could come home every weekend. Both were hard though. Not because either one of us was afraid that our relationship would suffer or the other one could meet someone else but because we weren´t physically close and the other one not there to talk or cuddle when you needed her. We had a strong phase though that we could make this work and we did. The reason for this might also have been that from day one we said that giving up on our reationship, whatever the circumstances, wasn´t even an option.
