@ Moises, it is definitely a challenge to go on a LDR but with communication, especially the numerous ways where people can stay in touch these days, and trust in each other. it can work out. Good to hear that both of you have kept the relationship running for 10 months already. And sorry that you weren’t able to hear her voice like for 4 months. Wish you all the best when you graduate. In the mean time, both of you can make plan about the future and find out more about each other. All the best and may the force be with you!

Well yes I’m currently in a LDR. I’m 16 years old so is that specially someone. Me and her have been in this relationship for 10 months now. Buts only seen each other once. Her mom likes me but, not completely her mom doesnt want me to communicate with her till she can manage her personal and academic life. It’s kind of sad all we can do is email one another but I havent once hear her voice for 4 months. Hopefully our relationship is a success because we both are trig so hard we can’t let it’s go. In the future I plan to attend college and live with her. Once more year till I graduate wish me luck.:)

@ Ben, in a normal relationship, communication can be a challenge already when both don’t put in the time and effort for it. Even more so for a long distance relationship. If both parties do not put in the time and effort to communicate, then very soon the relationship will just come to an end.

I think you're spot on. Communication is key. I can imagine that it's very easy to communicate less and less when in a long distance relationship. But as you said, love conquers all. If people are really in love, they can make just about anything work. .-= Ben´s last blog ..Cambodia Motorcycle Diary #4 =-.

@ Anna, thank you for sharing your experience. I am most glad that things are working out for you and your fiance. Communication sure is very important especially so in LDR. And we need to have a lot of trust in the other person.

Hey! I loved your blog on LDR’s. I am actually working on a LDR blog myself, and am in one. I agree that it is extremely hard and that the computer makes it much, much easier. I also agree that communication is the key. Couples that can’t communicate well in or out of long distance relationship hardly ever work out. I feel so lucky that my fiance and I have the computer to communicate. I try to think back to even just a few years ago when Skype didn’t exist, and to be honest, I don’t think I would have got myself in to a LDR. Luckily I have a large group of people that are doing Long Distance. This makes me feel a lot better knowing that I am not the only person going through it.

@ Ben, indeed, in this age of communication, most can chat and talk with someone everyday and that distance doesn’t seem that long instantly.

Yep, you're absolutely correct. Communication is key. But this is the age of communication after all. And when you can chat and talk with someone everyday, the distance doesn't really seem that long anymore. .-= Ben´s last blog ..Ecclesiastes Study — Everything Beautiful =-.

@ Eren, a lot of times we won’t really know if the person is supposed to be the one we are supposed to be married. It is sort of a faith and guts feeling. And a great deal of time, we are the ones who are supposed to make the relationships work. I am so happy to hear about the success story of your parents. It is an inspiration to many. It will be nice to have your parents shared about their story.

This is a very important point that you bring up.
I believe it’s a matter of “Do we believe that this is the person that we are supposed to be married to?”
I think that when we truly believe that we have met “the person” that we are to be with.
My parents formed a long distance relationship where my dad was from Brazil and my mom from the U.S.- she decided to marry and move to Brazil and they have been married 37 years on September 5th
So it all really depends on the relationship. I agree that it’s very hard though.
All the best,
