Long Distance Relationships

I am here and you are there - one of us is in the wrong place
calypso84: Hey,everyone! I'm just curious whether some of you are in relationship with someone who lives in a different country than you? If so,how does it work? What are advantages & disadvantages?

I'm in a relationship with a guy from Norway (I'm from Poland) & I have to admit it's pretty difficult because of longing for him & the same is from his side. We can't meet as often as we would like to. You know,work etc. But on this level,surprisingly,I'm more tolerant. Ofc waiting for the another meeting him is frustrating but I'm still aware that that day will finally come & everything will be just fine. It looks differently with him...I think it becomes more & more difficult for him to wait to see me again. But how can it be as for now? It's just the beginning so it's impossible for both of us to make a decision of moving to the other country rather if we don't know yet whether we actually match that well to take that risk!
What do you think about this? Is there anyone who was or still is in the same situation as me???

atomikbomb: hi Calypso...yep, I am in the same situation. I live in the United States and my boyfriend lives in Canada. We've been together nearly a year now and I was with him for a while last month. I don't think, or I haven't found yet any advantages of being apart. Especially not once you have been physically together. It's hard not being able to touch him and kiss him and hold him. I do find it a little easier now since being there knowing where and who he is talking about when he tells me something. I know now after meeting him that he loves me for real and not just who I am over the computer. It hard--it's really, really hard but if the feelings are there that will get you through. And I always am finding out(and I don't know if it is the same over there)but it is very difficult to move to another country. That's the point we are stuck at now. All I have to say is good luck and thank goodness for the internet!

calypso84: Atomikbomb & NAV-good you're here Yes,ofc,love is a wonderful feeling but how painful sometimes!

Internet is a miracle & a curse in the same time though. Have you ever argued on the internet with the one you love because of some misunderstanding caused just by typing not seeing his face? Funny thing coz in reality there wouldn't be any problem & in the internet? Sometimes it is...

Mandolyn_wind: I also have a long distance relationship, him in North America and me in UK, it has its difficulties but love is the most amazing way of bringing people together.

The internet has its drawbacks, but for me its what allowed me to meet the man of my dreams.

atomikbomb: Yep Calypso..that's happened MANY times. You misinterpret what they are saying or how they are saying it because you can't see them or hear the tone of their voice. That's why you have to make sure the communication is clear and if you have a question about their meaning then just ask.

Thiago92: Hey calipso.. i have been in a long distance relationship. she was from brazil, and i'm from argentina.. we was talking in m** like 4 months and then i had the idea to live in brazil and she liked it... so i went there, and in the first 2 weeks i went to the shopping to eat an ice cream and guess what.. i've found her kissing another guy. it doesn't mean it will happen to you, but if you dont know him all that good, i dont think it would be a nice idea to any of u both leave ur countrys and ur life to live with anyone u "don't know", i wont be in a long distance relationship never more
