lookin4ubabe: Ok...this is where I am coming from.......(I will try to keep it brief)........I am looking for love......but,I WANT a long distance relationship!! People think I’m crazy because they think since I am looking for love....I should naturally want to be with that person constantly. I was never one of those little girls that couldn’t wait to grow up and be married. I am and have always been very independent and I love my life.
My life is very busy right now, I have a 7 year old son, I have 2 jobs ( a teacher by day....shady bartender by night..lol...not really shady.....just sounded good :) Anyway, and I am also a full time student . At the same time, I miss the intimacy of a close relationship, intelligent conversation and the comfort of knowing my guys always in my corner.
I think there is something to be said for absence making the heart grow fonder and the excitement of anticipating the next contact. I love to travel and my schedule allows a good amount of travel time. In my view, it is the best of both worlds. I can live my life, reach my goals , while enjoying the love of a good man., while he can be doing the same.
Eventually, the goal would be to be together........but just not now. The thing is....it takes really strong people to have such a relationship. I am not the jealous type and I am not a cheater and I think with trust and commitment it can be successful. Do I sound absolutely fricken crazy...or are their others that feel the same way?????

It actually sounds like not a bad idea to me. I have so much to deal with with my career and family that seeing someone on an occassional basis might be a great way to start. Thanks for giving me the idea!

I did have this kind of relationship for over 6 months with a gent I met online. It was an ideal relationship seeing each other only once a month, yet talking on the phone and/or webcamming for 3 to 4 hours a night. After the six months I did move in with him. We got to know each other, over those six months, better than a couple dating once a week and only out to impress the other during the date. We got to experience the good, the bad, and the ugly of each other and still wanted to be together after our LDR......eventually, of course, you need to physically be together for the relationship to continue but it was exciting getting to know each other being 2,000 miles apart.

We live a life fitting that description, here and now.
Would I ask for a long distance relationship if I could choose? No, I would not, I am not that logical when it comes to her.
But we do, and it is a boost to our respective professional lives.

druidess6308: I hope you find him. There are men who can and will do this type of relationship who are not cheaters either, and might be looking for it for the same reasons you are, Lookin. Best of luck, and no, I don't think you're crazy. Braver than I am, but not insane.
Thanks Druidess.....I always appreciate and respect your point of view!!

OKay I will be the bad guy... I must say I am suprised at the number of folks who like the idea and think its doable. Dont get offended but to me it seem more like you're speaking of friends with benefits instead of a serious relationship. Either way I dont see anything wrong with it provided both parties are in agreement,
I would expect that overtime it would either die out or one of the parties would find someone more convenient to share themselves with. After all I dont believe absense makes the heart grow fonder. Relationships to me are built on closeness and interaction with one another. To tell yourself that you can get the same benifits from phone calls and emails in my view are poor judgement. You may be able to make it work but I would think the odds are against it.
I am also wondering if you're working two jobs day and night how much of a relationship do you have with your 7 year old? Just curious.

I can only do 1 THING at a time
I admire people who can work two jobs but I would want my husband home with me and the kids at night--he can like 2 jobs but really I only want him to work one. That's best for marriage and family.------ This thread is Archived ------
