How many of you have had them and it worked out? I've been with my other half now for almost 1 year (6/03) and will be moving to Austin in a month. My other half has a lease that expire in July and i've been told would join me right after that. I've offered to buy out of the lease and thats being considered though we both want me to settle in and get my job underway.

We have a very solid loving relationship and are both independant. We are both very committed to each other and there is never reason for mis trust and I have never been lied to.

I've been told "I hate Orlando and want to move to Austin". This was our choice out of 3 other offers. Deep down I really wonder if this can be done and it effecting me big time. We met last year in June and I lived in Texas and they were here in Orlando. We where apart for 3 months and things where fine though I came to visit every weekend. This time I will be unable to do that but we have some trips set.

Sorry this is so long I just want to hear from others who have been trhough the same. My family loves this person as do I and I am so afraid once I move its over. (my insecurity).

In my experience I dont believe they work. I have had 3 to date and all have failed. However if you two are completely compatible then there should not be anything from stopping it work. Insecurity is a major concern here.

Peace

I'm in one right now and well, I'm bad at it. It depends on how likely you are to hook up with someone else if they come up to you - and the same of them.
I'm easy, so really I take anything I can get (within reason - I'm acutally pretty picky - but if a hot girl hits on me, there is no way I will back away from that, I'm too young - unless I have to call her ) - whereas my gf isn't like that - so don't I feel like a dick.

It can be difficult, but not insurmountable. However, if she is attractive, she's always going to be "hit on".......and eventually may break down. It's just natural. For you to be "together", you have to truly be together.

mines been going since december 19th... it has gotten VERY rocky at times due to certain things... like future plans, goals, etc... and just good ole fashion loneliness... as of now its holding strong, but sometimes (somebody else said this) your insecurities can pop up and drive at you.. you may end up wondering if she is honest about wanting the future with you and really wants to move for you because your worth it or not... i think it sucks personally, but turning my back would be worse...

Thanks all. We spoke again last night and i will not drop it as a concern and control the things I can control. It appears we are both on the same page with this and that things will work out fine. And yes being insecure is not a good thing to be in a relationship. I have many things going for me and need to realize that. Thanks again.

It certainly could work out. April to July isn't too terribly long. Throw in a few trips and if your both committed it won't be a big deal.

To me it would be a great improvement, I'm in Bosnia for a year and she is in Tampa.

I'm in the same position, my man is moving to Florida and I'm afraid that as soon as he moves, it will be over. I love him more than anything in this world, i don't know if i should move without finishing H.S, i could always finish there, but he tell me it would be better if i finish here and do a semester in college here and than move to florida, the way he will be sure that he really likes it there. But i don't really want to do that i want to move with him but I'm scare.

I been in one for the last two and a half years, and its been rough but we've made it and I'll be home in 2.5 months. So to me 3 months ain't to bad.

In my opinion you guys sound strong, just try to get some cheap ass calling card from sams club 1000min. for $41.00 stay in touch and reassure each other of your feelings often. It will be a test for the two of you, and might even make you closer in the long run. Good luck bro!

Yes we seem solid. My other half keeps busy with films in the off time and is a very disiplined person. Latindiva finishing high school is very important to you and your future. I can relate to your fears as I have the same. Deep down we all know if the person we have is the right one and long distance can be done if there is love and trust. I am giving mine 100% as I truly feel its a match made in heaven. If you both feel the same nothing should get in the way no matter where you are. This board helps get things off your chest as its filled with caring people who have a common bound and share similar pasts.
