Details:
We've been friends for two months before we got together

Hi.

I think it depends on you two whether you want keep your relationship strong or to let it whither which don't want to happen.

Do what ever you need to do in order to keep in touch. get viber, wechat, skype, face time. anything that can make your relationship strong.

the answer you're looking for is not how your relationship can last, but rather, how can your relationship be strong enough to withstand the harshness of LDR. If there's a will, There's a way.

I have few friends who are in an LDR, they did all they can to stay strong.

I hope the both of you will do everything to stay strong.

Hope this helps =)

Yes. Honestly I'm doing the same with my girlfriend, Azzy. We've been together for a few months. We haven't talked in a few months because of her phone being taken away and so I miss her more and more every day. I like to leave little jokes and stuff in our chats though, so when she sees then, she'll be happy :) I love her so much, and I promise you your love will last to, you just have to be patient :)

Your type of LDR is really the only type that has a good chanced of making it. What you have that other LDRs who only meet on line, is that you've known each other in person already before hand. That is very important becausae there are too many pieces missing you can't experience in cyber. Though you weren't friends long, it's important that you liked each other as friends as the most successful relationships have people who are both compatible as friends and romantically. If you didn't have chemistry with each other or trust in friendship, you wouldn', will never know these things unless they can meet in person.

Often the biggest downfall to meeting first in cyber is that though there's the emotional connection, a couple misses things that can only occur face to face. Add to it and good chance that they can never get together in real life, and the temptation to get together with an equally nice person who comes into their non cyber life, is going to be the greater temptation to pull them away from a LDR love.

That being said, it is also a truth that some people dont need months or years of dating to know that they have met the person they want to be with the rest of their lives, married or not. It can literally be a month or two, some know already in even less time. A lot can depend on the basic character of two people in knowing this for sure so early and perhaps even in some life experience. For me 2nd time around and my current hubby, it was our character and life experience that made us sure after two weeks from first meeting, that each of us was what the other was looking for and we confessed that to each other.

So in the end, I would say you have a better chance of making it last than most. Only you can know how strong that chance is by how sure both of you are about each other.

Hey there c:

TBH, I know several couples who have made it through LDRs. My parents are an example. They did go on a break halfway through their relationship, but eventually, they did end up together. They've now been married for over 30 years. So don't worry about it. If it's meant to be, it'll work itself out. Just remember that relationships take a lot of work, but if you guys believe that the other is incredibly important and worth all the work, then there shouldn't be a big problem.
I hope I helped!

Love,
Ella

mmmm Honestly i cant see this lasting. Its kind of an "out of sight out of mind" sort of thing here.

If your not there to "meet each others needs" in all the ways a face to face relationship would then its not going to work for that much longer.

theres too much temptation to see other people should the chances be presented to you both and not enough of a reason NOT to do it. Your not there, your far away i mean think about it. How realistic does this sound when you say it out loud? ONCE A YEAR, you get to see each other???

i think you know the answer to this question already but its nice that you came here to ask anyway......its time to move on. No one says you cant still keep in touch though and be good friends and maybe sometime in the future you could reunite but theres too much stacked against you here for this to work.

good luck.
