long distance relationships??

my new found boyfriend lives in galway and me living in cork leaves us a 3-4hour travel ditance beteween us..
we are both unemployed which is a complete downer as we cant afford to commute as much as we want to..
really want this to work as he's great but all the negativity is getting to me on peoples views on this as they say you can lie much easier and the distance will become a major issue etc..

would love to know success stories of long distance relationships..

dont want to give up on mine.. will be moving to galway next september if all goes to plan so hope will last the next 9 months..

i met him on this and by far the most decent man ive ever met.. hes super..
we get on soooooo well and have so much in common.. that worried me because i thought it would end up more like a friendship but it hasntcheering

goina work hard on trying to keep this alive and kicking.. anyone with some advice would majorly be appreciated!!

3 to 4 hours is distance..?

hmm.... well my boyfriend and me far away from one another.. but we just feel strong...but i'm not sure for future....


He live in Canada and i'm thailand....bouquet grin
thank you both for yer comments out me at ease.. wouldnt know how i felt if i met someone in a different country so fair play to ye both bouquet

and the canada and thailand commute must be expensive..

the 3hour distance is car or bus travel tine length
Foxy, if you were a regular, sad blog reader then you would know that Moonie has not actually met her 'b/f' yet and doesnt intend to for the next 3 years. Therefore the question of travel cost isnt an issue yet.
If he's 'the one' then I would say its a short distance. If the distance becomes an issue then I would say he's probably not 'the one' !
The best things in life are often worth waiting for.

Its bad timing with you both being unemployed at the moment,but the distance is mere really,sure its tough not being able to see one another as often as you both would like,but if you get on so well,bare with the inconvenience for now,and whatever shall be,will be.

All the best!
hi guys... my boyfriend is always angry of my (Marry Christmas cat)grin grin burger pizza pizza secret, dont tell Mr.Rare(science research)grin blah foot in mouth foot in mouth foot in mouth hole hmmm hmmm hmmm group hug group hug
i was apart from my husband from a few months after first meeting for 2 years-i managed a 3 week visit during that time.
i still have the weekly love letters,the love radiates from them,and we talked by phone once a week.

you will know,if your connection is strong enough,to last this distance,and time,then you have more of a chance to last long term.if its meant to be-it will be.
my girl and I met (on this site) last february. we lived 3.5 hours apart. we now live together. we married in october.
Hedistuff...Congratulations on your wedding. I'm a great believer that distance is nothing but a little thing and also, that "there is no distance that enough love won't bring close." So, if you have a loving heart and you're willing to sacrifice for that love, then have patience bring that love to you.professor heart beating
If both of you are serious and committed you will work together on this. Only time will tell. Watch for warning signs, some folks are good at "talking the talk but not walking the walk." conversing
