TygersDream agony auntSince the relationship started out as a long distance one and he's making the effort to meet up with you on Valentine's day, a long distance relationship isn't impossible. It'll be frustrating for sure, but as long as he's an honorable guy I think it should work out.

At the same time, however, you have to be open to the fact that he might not be the same person you fell in love with online. And you have to ask yourself how long you want to keep up a long distance relationship. Some ppl find freedom in LDRs because they have time to do their own thing, and they have a lover and confidante who appears in their lives briefly. These brief visitations can be deceiving however, because you never get to fully know the person. You won't really know what chemistry you guys have because you never get the time to disagree or enjoy something together.

In the end, ppl either move to the same place as their LDRs or just break up because the distance is too frustrating.

If you feel like you're up to the task, then go for it.

cseame agony auntYes long distance relationships do work if your in a very good relationship...

I'm not sure if you met him on msn or not but i advise you to meet him in person before you start anything...

my sister is in a long distance relationship and she's been in it for 2 years now...i believe if you have trust and a computer then you can still make a tight bond.

you just call each other when you have time or go on msn which ever works for both of you
