MelissaM22 Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 Hey everyone! I'm new here, and I'm curious how you got into your LDR.. I'll tell you my story first. Here it goes: Last year on the last day of my summer holidays, there was a party in the village where my grandparents live.There I briefly spoke with a guy and a few days later he adressed me on Facebook. We started talking and we got along so well! We have spoken everyday since; there hasn't been a day without talking to eachother. But he actually wasn't a complete stranger to me. I've 'known' him ever since I was a little girl, because every year I spend my holidays at the same village. But before the party we never really spoke to eachother. Maybe it's because he's 4 years older than me. This summer I will be going back to my grandparents and I will finally see him again! I can't wait!! So, what's your story?
racer120 Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 lovely sounding story. So this summer will be like your first 'official' meet-up/date? Good luck with that. I could tell my story, but sadly I believe it's not a relationship (or evolving to that effect).

d0nnivain Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 Way back when I had an LDR it started because the guy I had been dating for almost a year, & known for about 3 before then, had to move to the otherside of the country for work. We became seperated by 3,000 miles. I was in grad school & couldn't move to be with him. The plan was I would try to get a job when I graduated in 2 years. The distance, his bad choices while we were apart (alcoholism) & the allure of a closer guy w/o the alcohol drama ended our relationship.
Viking-Liz Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 I met my amazing hubby in a MMORPG-game while I was struggling badly in the relationship I was in at the time, and I was crushed with the death of a very close friend of mine. We started gaming together as I asked guildies for help, but ended up chatting far into the mornings about everything. We never stopped, and advanced to Skype and Snapchat. From there the way was short to Whatsapp and texting all day. In july I realized I had to meet this man. I had seen pics, and thought he looked good, but the person I had learnt to know was amazing and beyond. I was infatuated even before we met. I broke up with my ex, and the long road to meeting started. In november I could finally get him at the airport, and the sight nearly hit me to the ground. He is the most handsome man I have ever seen. We are coping nicely, but will hopefully close the distance in a few months time.
Rainbowx Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 Just like Liz above I met my boyfriend in an MMORPG a few years ago. We were always friends though not extremely close but I'd always taken a liking to the guy. I was planning to go to America early last year for a convention that LOTS of other online friends were going to and he asked me if I wanted to come out to the desert to meet him while I was there, but at the time I had a boyfriend and he didn't know that and I didn't know that he was crushed when I told him, but he'd said he likes me as much as it's possible to like someone on the internet (he won't go there, thinks it's weird). But soon after my ex and I had split up and I spent months getting over him, but told this friend that we have to hang out and that he owes me a date!! He agreed and a couple months later I was in America, meeting all my friends and on the second night we went on our date. Was the most incredible night of my life. We spent the week getting to know each other in the real world and it was beyond amazing, so we've been trying to make it work ever since. I then went back to USA less than a month later for 45 days and stayed with him. Was amazing. We plan for me to move to the USA in a year once I've saved enough money.
Viking-Liz Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 WoW ftw Keep us posted then, as my got kinda doomed down under as we met in a game when I registered here xD
Rainbowx Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 Ya, we weren't planning for anything to actually happen, were just friends when we met but then it felt like love at first sight (and I didn't believe in that stuff lol). I think it has higher chances of working out if you meet in person and then fall for each other
LadyLee Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 My Hunny and I are active duty military. We dated for a year and a half and then we both got orders to different places. He's in SC and I'm in Ga. We see each other most weekends. He comes home mostly but we'll meet in the middle. We both have kids to juggle. We make it work. So far we have been long distance for about 10 months. All's well that ends well:love:
toml Posted April 19, 2014 Posted April 19, 2014 I thought mine would evolve into a relationship but it never did. I was heartbroken. I felt the girl played me online. We met on facebook. We had a mutual friend
