[...] is, she’s currently in a long-distance relationship which has its usual ups and down, except magnified by the distance. Then he proposed to her and she accepted. However, they won’t see each other for another [...]

Thanks pal. Yeah I know… but I reckon that you should give a try the next time u’re into LDR. The outcome would be much better than being a single again, right? Good luck in finding the right one.

Ah, then congratulations that it worked out that way for you. I didn’t say that LDR will never work, but if you have a solid foundation then the chances are higher that they will.

When I mean that we’re no longer in LDR, what I really mean is that we’re physically together, side by side. =)

Oh yea, forgot to mention that our LDR was for 2.5 years.

So it didn’t work out then? Your comparison don’t seem to make sense. Both aren’t good endings.

How about this:

Isn’t it better to be loved in LDR and knowing that she’ll be there for you for the rest of your life than feeling loved and then lost?

I had the former and now we are no longer having LDR anymore. That’s the lifetime reward.

Yeah it would be a chore, an expensive one at that. Not being able to be there for one another when you need them the most would be a deal breaker in most relationships.

I’ve been through this before and it is hard. Plus you feel resentful that even though you’re together, he is never there when you need him the most. Traveling lost distances to see each other was exciting at first but became a chore after a while.

IInsaneClown: hmm, not to be a pessimist but if she’s young still and she’s off travelling around the world, I’d prepare myself for the inevitable break-up. Hold out hope but don’t close your mind off to other possibilities as well.

girlstar7: the LDRs that I’m talking about are those where the people meet each other at a 3rd location (ie. neither place that the persons involved are living in), hooks up and then decides to have the LDR.

If it’s a committed relationship, and the people have to live apart for a while, that’s a different story.
