Do they even work? Are they really worth it? I mean i feel like it'd make that couple closer in a sense because the bond they have is purely emotional, but you can't touch a picture you know? Any thoughts?

Sometimes, depends on how patient the people are who are having a long distance relationship. ^ ^;

At the moment, I live in England and my parnter is in America. It may take a couple or few years, but I'm pretty sure that we will meet. It does take a lot of patience and love, no matter how corny it sounds.

I just broke up with a kid who lives in Vegas (I live south of Boston). It didn't work because I didn't know him well enough and we both wanted a different type of relationship than the kind we were getting. He wanted me to give it all up for him and take sexy pictures and stuff, but I wasn't into that. I wanted a companion. A best friend. We'd never met IRL, only over the internet.
I guess a long-distance relationship could work if you have met IRL at least once. Maybe you met on a vacation or you both used to live in the same place but one of you moved. Those types of things seem more plausible than my previous relationship.

To follow what Sunshine said, I think LDRs can work perfectly well so long as you're both on the same level and share some mutual respect for each other's boundaries. In my experience they take quite a lot more effort than a conventional relationship and you're going to be lonely pretty often, but if you're with the right person somehow it all feels worth it.
Valuable lessons can be learned too. I know personally I'm a lot more trusting in relationships since I couldn't keep an eye on my LD partner.
If it feels right, and you and this girl are really into each other, I say give it a go :) just be sure you both know what the other's expecting from the relationship, and talk often!
Good luck btw <3

Me either but John's still in school anyway so I have a year to get it done. ^^ You just need to work for it.

I do believe you can have a relationship even if the person you love, if far away from you. Once I dated a girl from USA and I´m from Brazil, our relationship lasted almost one year

My most successful relationship was long distance. We dated for a year and saw each other everyday, then I moved several states away and we continued dating for another year. It's a lot of work but it can definitely be worth it! heart
