LDRs and falling in love, possible?

[intelfan11315]

I did it before and it worked perfectly fine. Can't say I'd do it again, but maybe just because I haven't met anyone that is worthwhile since then.

So what? They can divorce if they get bored with each others. That is what tend to happend in real life starts also.

IMHO, the LDR part forces both people to be good at communication and that IS the very most important part of a relationship.

I agree with the OP that, while it could work for the couple in question, I believe they should give it more time. If they love each other both will stick around until the time is right. If one doesn't stick around, then it's good that they didn't get married.

I agree with this. I also think the OP shouldn't be having arguments with his GF over something that has nothing to do with either of them...

Love is a choice based on what you know of a person.

It's possible to be in love and never have met based on this. It's also possible it's huge mistake and nobody really knows who they other is.

You are attempting to argue semantics with your GF when you are both right.

its definitely not possible

Long distance communication can be really beautiful and special. It's a unique way to know someone. It taught me patience (not my strong suit). I was in an LDR for a while and it was a very sweet relationship full of love. Ultimately, the reality of being apart became too much for us to handle.

IMHO falling in love through a LDR is based on fantasy and not reality
