    Do long distance relationships work?
    Me and my boyfriend have known each other for almost 2 years now. This is the second time we've dated. The first time we broke up because we thought things might not work out for us and for months we didn't have any contact until 2 weeks before his birthday when we realized we never stopped loving each other.

    We're still dating for the second time for 6 months now and I'm the most happiest girl ever! But people think it will never work. They think its all a joke and its not. We are really happy together. He loves me I know that.

    Everything happens for a reason, so my question is do you also think it will work out for us and how do we keep it working?

    What kind of distance are you talking about? 2 blocks, the next town over, or maybe over an ocean?

    1, how old are you
    2. how far is the distance
    3. how often do you actually see each other in real life

    What are the long term plans to have one person move to location of the other, if things work out.

    Most long distance does not work well over one year, seldom over 2. At younger ages, it is really bad, since young people need real life dating, if possible. Online is not real life.
