Does it work?
Long distance is typically one of those automatic 'no' things that pops into one's head when thinking about a possible relationship. For the most part, long distance is hard, and it automatically turns people off.
However, I can't really talk - I was in a long distance relationship for a year. Given that mine failed, I have a more biased opinion than most.
From what I have seen and heard, most long distance relationships don't work. However, I know those that have. For example, I have a friend here at school who went on spring break and now has a long distance boyfriend in Pennsylvania. One of my good friends has been dating a girl for five years, even though he lives in the United States and she lives in the UK.
I guess my question is, does it work? And, if it does, how? What makes a long distance relationship worth it?
Some people I've talked to say a deeper connection, some say trust, others say friendship; but what is it really that makes long distance work?
Thoughts?
