Hey, I'm the guy. Pretty much what she said. Don't expect me to text wall like that, I can't. I'm very much in love with her, feel the same way and I could never let her go. Anyway, as she said, I live in the UK, which means it's quarter to 6 and I haven't slept yet, so I'll be going. Sorry if this post didn't make much sense, I'll re-read it when I wake up (probably the afternoon now xD).

So hi to you guys, and goodnight.

Hey guys...

Talk, and talk often... Ive been in a LDR for a little over 6 months and we talk every day for hours...

Some things that I also recommend is watching a movie together... can make dinner together... get creative

One other thing that needs to be addressed is and end point... My GF and I have discussed this and we have come up with a plan of our own... If you cant come up with a mutual end point then your chances are grim...

[Person012345]

Hi. Yeah, we talk as much as we possibly can. It's why I'm up until the small hours of the morning. We've also watched football games together. So I guess we're doing right there

By end point I guess you mean like, how we're going to end up? As she said she's in uni and will be studying abroad here (at Cambridge hopefully, not far from me). Well, if she likes it she will try to be coming over to complete her education, and maybe stay on here forever. We will be getting together properly then, for good, and then it depends on what happens after that, where the jobs are etc. I'm flexible, I will go where she needs. That is the plan. If things change we'll make new ones. I know I can't live without her, and she feels the same, so theres not really any question in my mind that we will be together. We will do whatever is neccessary to make it work.

Sorry about some of the details being not here, but we haven't discussed what we're going to tell in the way of personal information. We'll talk about it on IM tonight.

I'm a UK girl and my boyfriend is an American! We also met online. After about 6 months he visisted for a month and we've already planned a month long visit in Dec! THEN HE MOVEEEES!

I think 2 years is an awfully long time though--I hope you two are strong enough to get through it. Do you cam and such? And skype lots! Send letters and presents All that stuff makes you feel closer

I'm listening to my American sleeping on skype right now We're never really apart <3

Good luck guys!

Nice to hear about someone else with an overseas relationship!

Two years is a long time but we figure it's a very small price to pay for a lifetime we want to spend together. (we're quite the romantics xD ) We certainly voice chat and cam from time to time. It really does help us feel closer together. I've sent him some snail mail, which I find a lot of fun.

Awww! That's adorable! We haven't done that yet. (A bit tough now since I have a roomie here at school but perhaps when I'm home...) I'll have to bring that up to him.

Thanks for the advice and warm wishes. Good luck to you guys too!

Heh, I'm very nervous on cam. My self-confidence is shot. But she's helping me get over that.

1. Communicate
2. Honesty
3. Trust
4. Loyalty

I've been in a long distance relationship before. I've ended things about a month ago, all i can tell you guys is stay true, talk about everything that is happening in your lives don't bring personal problems in the relationship. Treat each others as you'd want to be treated, i don't know what else to say, if you guys go and read the thread i first started maybe you guys can learn few things from it. Best wishes for both of you.
