    I'm with RM95 in that it's going to come down to how serious she is, since it sounds like you are.

    I'm currently in a long-distance relationship that has lasted just about three years now. The relationship itself has lasted six. Long-distance part will be over after three months (thank God)

    I think the key to making it is commitment and balance. If you're looking for something serious and you think you have it, you're more willing to stick it out. If you have your own life, i.e. - a good set of friends and a healthy leisure life (hobbies and fun, not what it sounds like), you may not be as happy with her, but you won't be depressed.

    Long-distance relationships are tough and probably not worth it if you're not serious. But if you're both serious and committed, it's doable.

    We've made it work, but I have to throw in some significant qualifications:

    1) we were together the last two summers.
    2) neither of us had been in prior relationships, and to be honest don't really know how to play the field.

    And no, we're not conservative Christians.

    Good luck. I'm very confident that you can do this. Have faith. :)

    I was in one for 6 months... it sucked. We were never in love tho, so I can't complain.

    If I was in love going into the long distance, then maybe I would try again. Otherwise, I'm never going to bother.

    Yeah, my old girlfriend from Oklahoma was gonna fly out here for the dance but she couldn't 'cause she's doing some modeling right now.

    Pedro:
    Is she hot?

    Napoleon:
    See for yourself.

    Pedro:
    Wow.

    Napoleon:
    Yeah, I took her to the mall to get some glamour shots for her birthday one year.

    Pedro:
    I like her bangs.

    Napoleon:
    Me too.
