Long distance relationship
Hello My name is seanicka (female), im 18 and on my way to college for education. The problem is my boyfriend lives in nassau bahamas. I met him over the summer while visiting my family and we became so close over the 3 months. We decided that we are gonna keep the relationship going because he really likes me and I really like him. Well actually its more than like, I can say we fell deeply in love with each other over that time and made lots of connections. Now im back in miami and everyday I cant do nothing but think of all the times that me and him shared and its making me cry everyday. Im just really afraid that this might not work out because i've never really been in a long distance relationship. Im not worried about him cheating on me its just the distance. Sometimes I just wish I knew if this is gonna work beforhand so I wont be wasting my time. Im really willing to make sacrifices to make this work and he say that he is as well but like I said Im still afraid. Do you think this can work out for me.

Eek. I had a similar experience a few years ago. I was dating a guy in the military that I met through family. I live in South Carolina and he was in Belgium. We spent two weeks together and hit it off. We stayed in touch, everyday, for six months. He came back to visit and totally ignored me. We cut it off, obviously, and the next year he was married??? It was not a positive experience for me. Think of your life and college education, first and foremost. Good luck and god bless.

I believe it could work. You just both have to commit to it, and be completely honest with one another. But when it all comes down to it, I believe you guys can do it.
Speaking from personal experience, I met one of my best friends online [which obviously makes it a long distance friendship]. Sure, we're not dating, but regardless, we make it work. Just keep in touch through texting, im, phone calls, etc.
Good luck =]

Well, Seanicka... I think yes and no. My friend was going through the same thing but this guy lived in the city while we lived in town-- I told her to not fret about the distance. Who cares about the distance? I would email him or IM or call him. Just don't do those connections too much before he thinks you are going 'coocoo bananas' lol. Well, I hope it works out.
Thanks 4 ur time! Peace outt,

Honestly, I don't think it will work out because of the distance.
However, They say anything is possible. If it's meant to be it will happen. Ask yourself honestly. How do you plan on seeing each other? How do you plan on having a future together?

Okay, I think there are too things I should say.
The first is that the two of you should talk about the distance and how it should not affect your daily lives. I know it can't be easy to be far away from a person you love, but you have to move on with your life. Be happy that there is someone who loves you, and use the thoughts of him to motivate you in work, school and in everything rather than crying about how he is so far away from you. He should also do the same.
The second thing is a question. How long will you be apart? Are you planning on moving closer in the future or keeping it long distance forever? The important thing to remember here is that people and circumstances change with time.The best thing that the both of you can do to continue this relationship is to both have your own life rather than trying to relive your time together. I'm sure that you will visit each other from time to time, so it's not really goodbye. If you say that he won't cheat on you then that's great, you don't have to worry about that happening and in the meantime just try to be strong and try not to cry. If you can endure the distance then I am sure that your relationship will be able to endure anything. I wish you only the best. I hope you are well.
