We are currently at the same university, but I'm considering nursing, which would require me to transfer to a campus about an hour and twenty minutes away. We will both be juniors next year (when I would transfer).
My concern is that the distance would put quite a bit of stress on our relationship just from being apart and trying to see each other as often as possible. I'm not worried about unfaithfulness or anything.
Anyone who has tried something like this, do you have any advice?Long distance relationship advice?
Me and my most recent boyfriend were in a long distant relationship...he lived an hour and a half away and I must admit...it was difficult...but we made it work for a long time.
My advice would be to make sure you DO see him as often as possible...never cancel it as the times you do get to see one another will be precious and will be what keeps your relationship going.
Sadly I ended my relationship....I thought the distance wasnt fair and he was a good looking guy and deserved someone closer :(
If you both care strongly enough for each other it will work :)
Good luck xLong distance relationship advice?
I can talk from experience I've been in a long distance relationship for over a year now. We met locallly and were together 6 months when a job pulled him 4 hours away from me. It hasn't been easy but we have worked through it by spending the weekends at the eachothers places. We just recently got engaged and are working on getting one or the other in the same town. What I'm trying to tell you is if you both completely trust each other and are in love you can make it work. It could be worse you could be in different states and hour away is completely manageable.
If you go to the other college, what you both need to do is agree to date others. If you are in the same city or make plans to see each other, great. If it's meant to work out, it will. You can't control each other's lives by not dating others when there is no commitment. It's the best thing to do. You each may find that you aren't interested in anyone else.
I actually go to school with my boyfriend, but live 6 hours away from him normally. Over the winter and summer breaks when we're apart, we talk on the phone a lot and visit each other every few weekends. If you live near him during the summer and breaks, you'll be able to have a normal relationship during those times. It really sucks having a long-term relationship, but it can be done. Just text a lot and promise to talk on the phone almost every night. Good luck!
It all depends on how much the two of you want it to work though from my experience most long distance relationships dont work and one or the other usually ends up being unfaithful but dont make accusations because if he isnt youll end up driving him a way. If you both are totally commited to each other and do what it takes it shouldnt be a problem. Good luck and best wishes
Stay focused on your studies. The weekends will be a breeze. Keep in contact by phone everyday if you can but don't get obsessive light having to talk 16 times a day. Keep focused and faithful. Don't freak out everytime he says I'm going out or can't talk. If you keep things dedicated but with enough room for each of you to grow. you're gonna be great. you're also gonna see if it's what you're gonna want long term by being a little bit apart and no seeing each other all of the time. college is the time to grow.
i havn't tried it, i'm going through it
similar situation, my girlfriend moved a hour and a half away from me because of forclosure.
since i have no car i have to ride the bus over there (over 3 hours on the bus)
i've been doing this for a year
i have to do the hard part though, she rarely comes to me, i always go to her
i have to wake up at 5 in the morning to catch my bus ride home
it's really becoming hard for me and she doesn't understand that apperntly
but it is possible
so good luck
long distance relationships never seem to work. it depends how strong your relationship is, how much you guys care for eachother, how much temptation you guys will be able to tolerate, how often you do.dont see eachother and if you are mature enough to handle it.
i know pople that can do it, i personally couldnt but the best of luck to you!
this will put a lot of stress on your relationship but the trick is to value the time you spend together. when you get to visit him, don't fight, just enjoy the time you get to spend with him and talking on the phone with him
I was in a long distance relationship once and OMG!! ur right it can be stressful
I mean especially while you guys r in college
but honestly I think u should follow ur dreams and maybe trying the long distance thing will show u how much u guys luv each other
If your commited to each other it should be a nice little test of your relationship. 1 hour apart is nothing.
an hour and 20 mins is not really that far away it could be worse. if your relationship is strong it will work x
stay in a relationship with that person.
just have some fun while their not around.
if you know what i mean. ;)
