Well sorry to probably bore you and if you don't want to give your view then don't worry about it.

Basically my GF went to University yesterday, she is only an hour and a half away, but I will only get to see her at weekends.

Just wanted to know if anyone on here is experiencing the same or if you have had a successful LTR and how you got through it.

It does hurt to leave a loved one but I really do believe that we can both make it work, just wanted some input on how to make it that slightly bit easier.

Thanks :)
 
Boo frickedy hoo - if you want the relationship to work, you'll make the distance work.

Just think of all the casual sex that people at uni have...and the fact that she's far away without you keeping tabs on her...

As long as she doesnt tell you about all the other students she's sleeping with then I dont see any obstacles to your relationship continuing.

LMAO....you evil, evil man penski :D
 
My god, not everyone at uni is a sex fiend!

If you love each other, then you'll be fine :) I stayed faithful to my lads while I was away at uni, one was 3 hours away.
 
This is nothing, if you really want to make it work, I only see my girlfriend either once or twice a week. We are both working and have commitments outside of work so it's the best we can do in our situation.

This is not a relationship problem really.
 
Law and I are about to have our fourth anniversary. She moved up to Geordieville last February.

Before that, she lived in Notts.

Long distance relationships can work...

...But can you live with the fact that she's probably having a different guy a day...possibly twice a day?

So you only see your girlfriend at the weekends.........

That leaves Monday to Friday free to fill the gap, it's a win win situation!!!
 
OP

Dont worry too much about it, just keep the contact alive - phone, email, msn and text nessages. The distance will make you relationship strong (depending on how strong it was before she left)....Anyway goodluck.

Long distance relationship?? An hour and a half away??

That's not an LDR mate, that's just a minor inconvenience that can be overcome if you really wanted to see each other mid-week. Some people have commutes that are longer than that.

I went through a London-USA LDR, and it worked out fine. We are now married and living over here (but emigrating to the US next year hopefully).

[american pie]Right now, there is a **** in your girlfriend's mouth. [/american pie]

Seriously, it can work. I just moved up to my girlfriend's area, been together since last year, no problems :)

My ex went to uni which was about an hour away but it didn't work out. I think the fact that she was actually free to do what she wanted when she wanted opened her eyes, plus everyone she knew up there was with someone and she kinda felt left out. It can work out if you really love each other and both put the effort in otherwise it's doomed to fail.
