    I'm getting back together with my exgirlfriend who lives in Long Beach, CA......I'm in Tempe, AZ.

    I just spent the last four days with her and realized she is the one for me. We talked about our situation for hours upon hours and have both made the committment to make the trip at least once every two weeks, or once every week. She's got one more year until she's an RN and I've got about a year and a half before I'm done with school. I'm not going to lose the girl of my dreams twice, I'm determined to make it work.

    What are your experiences with long distance relationships? Am I ed from the start, or is there a chance?

    Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

    Plus, that's only an 8-9 hour drive, so that's not too bad.

    i'd reckon the hardest part would be not hooking up with a girl in AZ and not thinking too hard if she's ing some guy in CA or not.

    There's always a chance.

    My husband and I spent 2 years on opposite sides of the country before we were married.

    If it's real, and you're both committed to making it work it will work.

    Keep talking. Be honest. The distance is only physical if you're connected emotionally.

    I assume you've got compatible cell phones, we did it before cells and the phone bills were ridiculous!

    My son's girlfriend is across the country and they've made it work for a year now.

    If it's meant to be and you work at it it will come out okay.

    We didn't separate on bad terms, it was more about the two of us getting our schooling done and that required me moving. I thought I'd enjoy being single having been with her for four years, but I couldn't have been more wrong. Seeing her again after 8 months just felt so right.

    I was basing on the drive from Tucson to my parents house in Orange County, so I assumed it was around the same. That's not a bad drive, so you can see each other pretty often.

    Take it from someone who has a job that takes me away from home from May through November. and in March also.

    So about 7 months out of the year, im away from home, save business trips also in between for a week or two.

    Its tough. BUT, it can be done. If you love her as much as you do, and she as well, wich it sounds you do, and you both make the effort to see each other every other week, then things are good.

    Honestly, if you have things going on, and she will too, and you talk on the phone every other night, or at home, or on the computer with IMs, then things are good.

    Good luck Sannity, you seem like good people, and I hope it works out

    I've been in a long distance relationship before and we made it work for several months. We broke up due to other issues (I want kids, he didn't) that had nothing to do with the distance.

    It's nice in a way, the time you do get to spend together is quality time and you don't want to waste any of it, so you tend to have a better visit. HOwever, once the year and a half is up and you guys are back in the same place, beware! Issues you let pass in the interest of keeping your rare time together peaceful may creep up. If you can withstand that initial onslaught of adjustment, you will be golden. Not sure if I explained that clearly but trust me, that readjustment phase is the hardest part. Good luck!

    Yeah its when you don't see anyone for like, 2 months, three months straight is when it gets touchy.

    You guys will be more than fine.

    Well its been about 8 months since I last saw her in person.............I talked to her on and off (we thought it would be better at certain times that we didn't talk, thought it would be easier, but it made it tougher).

    I've contemplated taking the two more classes I need for my English degree so I can just graduate, get her a ring, get a career going, and marry her................but, the whole reason I moved out here was for this business/golf management degree. I wish I could just fast forward the next year or so.
