I'm in a long distance relationship too. I've been with my gf
for 31 months now. And I calculated only about 8 months were spent
together, the rest is on MSN, Webcam and long-distance call through
phone or voice conversation at MSN or using Skype. She's in
Australia and I'm in Sg. We manage to survive and still believe
that we can maintain all the way. Long Distance do work, but it
need two hands to clap. Both parties need to do their part. It need
understanding and trust as well as love. It'll be better if you
know who she hang out with and she know who you always hang out
with. Also, lagi better if both set of family knew about the
relationship.
