Love is a lie

Long distance = almost certainly doomed to failure.

I kinda agree here. Here's my list

NYC to Australia

NYC to Canada

NYC to Texas - got married, lasted 2 years, annulled

Currently NJ to Ohio - much shorter period of time, visits every few weeks - **driving distance!** (very important!)

 

Constant visits help make the time apart easier, especially when things like work get in between. Also, any LD relationship that lasts over a year is put in dangerous situations. Someone should move by a year out.

Also, if both people involved are close with their family, this makes moving away harder. When one person is sick of where they live, its easier to make plans happen quicker.

Lastly - be unique/weird. Be so strange, but in a way the other person likes, that they know that finding someone like you would be next to impossible. Don't be the stereotypical guy, they can find him at any bar.

 

 

Believe me I know all about how to make a successful long distance. I planned this one so it would work, just things got in the way. Like it was only for two semesters, not even a year, with many little visits in between. And then she would move here (as I couldnt move there). That last part is where it got messed up, and the fact that she said she started to like one of her exes almost a thousand miles away.

So I believe maturity might be another issue. Not mine, but some girls. She's very mature, and yet still here I am.

 

And dogsforlife quit spamming my thread, this is actually quite serious. When something happens in your life that shatters a lot of "truths" that you thought would always be there, its hard to rebuild. Maybe if you ever get a girlfriend or growup, you'll understand.
