I don't think they work in most cases
Lange afstand is niets voor mij ik vind t fijn om iedere dag wat van elkaar te horen als zien een keer niet uit komt is dat geen ramp
I don't think they can work
Whatever the distance, we would make it work if its worth it. My relationship with my husband is worth it so we are going to just make it work.
I'm currently in one, and have been before. They're perfectly doable, but definitely not easy, and not for the weak of heart. It takes a lot of trust and even self-control, but seeing each other after a long time is so gratifying. And I know that finally being with her in the same place will make it all worth while
They can with the right people for sure,. And i would hope at least twice a month in some fashion.
I'm currently in one. You can not plan or want for a long distance relationship but you also can't help who you fall in love with.
They're the most difficult and painful, but if two people are in love, committed and willing to make it work then it sure is doable! It takes a lot of communication, time, honesty and trust, but seeing each other after a long time is so gratifying. You forget about the pain. Just don't give up.

Never thought I'd be able to do it until now , but now I know it's worth it , and as far as how often I really don't know yet but guess we will find out soon enough
Well, I can't speak from personal experience or anything ;), but id have to say that seeing someone only once every 3-4 weeks sounds unbearable. Glad I don't have to do that anymore!! For now once a week is pretty great, as the while long distance thing has certainly gotten harder over time :(
I do not believe in long distances but if we are in one I would try to see her at least twice a month
I feel they are difficult and shouldn't be done unless there is no other way. I am in that position right now and I will make it work. As far as seeing each other. I don't want to wait 6 or 7 months but if it comes down to it then I will. It is a small price to pay for a life time of happiness.
You can absolutely make one work. It doesn't even have to be super difficult (if sometimes painful). You just have to be the right type of person for it, and know that your love is stronger than any number of miles. (We are rocking an LDR!)
You're damn right we rock it, baby!

As long as you're both committed and willing to put a lot of time and effort and money into it, there's no reason why it shouldn't work.
It didn't work for me in the past but I think that was more that we were generally unsuited. I guess they can work but for me, I'd need to see him at least every 2 weeks.
I would like to see Her at least every 3 months.... Hopefully that can work out soon!
