I've been in a long distance relationship for a bit over two years. I live in California and he lives in the New York area. I was there for a week and just got back. I have to say that this is the crappiest part about long distance relationships; the goodbyes and coming back home. I absolutely hate being in a long distance relationships, having to count down days till you can see that s/o again. So *****ing crappy! BUT! I'm moving out there this summer after finishing school. Excited for that, but feeling crappy now. Any of you been in long distance relationships?
My girlfriends is in College Station and I'm in Austin. Not a huge distance separating us but we don't see each other often since school really gives us loads of work. I'll be graduating in May 2010 while she won't graduate till May 2012. Pretty crappy but I'm in love with her so I can deal with it.
Ha, a Longhorn and an Aggie, I presume. Wow, I wonder how that "rivalry situation" has played in your relationship. Why 4002?
Well she has asked me multiple times to tone down on my constant critique of A&M. I have tried my best .
Because this is the EXACT amount of males that are from California, fit into PiggyTails' age range, and are registered for Clutchfans. I HAVE calculated this.
lol.. I know it can be hard. I'm going to UTSA next year and then the following year (the year you graduate) to UT.. I already hate Aggies. I've actually hated Aggies since I was about 13.. I've wanted to be a Longhorn since then. . LMAO... Nice!
How'd you do that? Does it count people currently living in CA or registered from there? So PiggyTails...... I've been in one and it was real tough. For us, it seemed to amplify arguments and made it real tough being apart. When we were together, everything was great. We were good apart for the most part, but little things turned into bigger arguments. In the end there came a point where we couldn't see the time we'd be able to be in the same place and with other issues, went our seperate ways. I've never loved anyone like I did her and not sure if I ever will. Now though, I want nothing to do with distance relationships. Because of my job, I've met some great women who didn't live where I was. I just kind of learned to let them go. I really do applaud you for sticking with it so long. Thats great and you're close to it being over and everything paying off. Guess some people are just better at it than others.
i was 15 and she was 16, she lived in new orleans, we talked on the phone for 2 weeks, she found another man... anyways, whats for lunch today guys?
Long distance relationships are dumb. I really don't think it can be a relationship if you don't get to see each other more then a few times a year.
I'm a believe that a long distance relationship can work, if both are willing to put 100% into it...otherwise, it'll never work... I was in one and I hate to say never, but never again...although I'm seeing a girl now who comes over on occassion and well it feels like a long distance relationship...
They don't. (Says the girl who was cheated on by a previous long-distance BF. What makes it worse is I was in Austin, he was in Houston, and I went home every other weekend to see his sorry ass.)
Well, if Austin and Houston counts as long distance, I'm in one now and it's difficult. (not exactly NY/Cali, but seems that way to me) We're working through it (for us the absence make the time we get together that much better, and really it's not much less time than it used to be considering work and other daily responsibilities) but it's incredibly stressful at times. I'm trying to work out new job/old job from there logistics, but until I have a backup plan, I don't want to pull the plug on the job I have or endanger it with the news. Sucks leaving a job you like in general, but doing so in this climate is downright scary. Basically the economy started tanking right after her professional move came, so it's been bad timing all around for us. I never thought we'd be apart this long. I put a lot of miles in, and don't see them as much as I need to, but we're trying to do what's best and so far this is it. I just drove back this morning, on our anniversary no less, and it was a very very tough goodbye. Usually I hug the kids in their sleep before i leave, but couldn't do it today.
What's there to talk about in a long distance relationship? When I moved down to Houston from New York, I lost touch with most of my friends, even my dearest friends. There is really not much to say.
I did long D w/ my SO for the vast majority of it... First year we were together at UT-austin..the next year she graduated and moved back to houston for optometry school while i stayed for another 2 years...then i went to med school in miami, FL for 2 years while she finished her optometry school...Then she moved to FL..and we are happily engaged it can work..but it is very hard keep being optomistic and dont lose hope! best of luck
