oh, we try as much as possible to see each other.. he's really sweet.. and tonight I went to see him at work and we were talking about college and he said " If I would go to Ottawa there would be my friends and her (pointing at me) to distract me from my work... so the way he talks it sounds as in i'll still be in his life for a long time, during college but do lond distance relationships work out? thanks  |

How's this for long distance? I live in the UK, in Yorkshire or Wales, depending on if I'm at University or not at the time, and my g/f lives in Colorado!! We're still together, so I think as long as you're commited, and make the effort, yes it can work.  |

I would have to advise you to follow your heart. If it is meant to be everything will work out just fine. Good luck!  |

Yes, of course, just have fun. It's not like you've been seeing each other all through high-school or anything. If you feel like you want to be attached this summer then by all means, stick with him...with one little stipulation: You have to tell him the situation...ALL of it. I'm sure he already knows you're goin' to school and stuff. I'm talkin' about tellin' him that you're just interested in a relationship until you go to school. If he agrees, then fine, have fun. And make sure he understands the deal. You don't want him throwing lines at you by the time August comes around. Ya know, "I've fallen for you, blah, blah, blah." I'm not saying they wouldn't be sincere it's just that you really don't need those kinds of complications while you're at school. I went through a similar kind of thing when I went up to Lakehead U. in Thunder Bay. This one girl back home ruined my whole first semester!!! LOL. She was all I could think about...but that's another story. What I'm saying is if you're serious about school then you don't want to be involved with someone who is not local and available to you whenever you need to see them. Oh, and you're comin' to school in Ottawa? Cool deal. I'm goin' back to school in August as well, at Algonquin College. Are ya goin' to Ottawa U., Carleton, or Algonquin? Well, all of them are fun. I think you'll have a good time here. Feel free to message me if ya need any info about the city. Take care and have a fun summer...Gallytuck.  |

Oh, and I'm not saying that long-distance relationships don't work. I'm saying that, in my opinion, of course, that it's not something to get into while you're in school. You're payin' big bucks, in Canada anyway, for post-secondary education. And there's a HUGE difference between just havin' a job and a LDR and goin' to school and havin' a LDR. I've done both. LDR's are difficult and require more trust, I feel, than your normal relationship. Anyhoo, I think I got it all this time...LOL. Gallytuck. |

I met my wife on the internet, I lived in Phoenix, AZ she lived in Madison, WI........3 months later, she came to meet me, and we were married 6 months later. Long Distance reelationships can work, if you are both honest, caring, and serious about it. It has to be a mutual thing, cant just be one sided or someone will get hurt. SO I suggest you feel it out and listen to your heart. Good Luck to you!!! Oswald  |

I believe long distance relationships can work as long as the two of you have plans to live in the same area in the near future. Get a phone card. I was in a long distance relationship and it was a challenge. The worst was when I lost my voice for an entire week. Phone conversations are the glue that keeps it together.  |
