I have a long connection to things oriental and I yearned for someone who showed loyalty, respect and love (among many other things), which I saw were much more prevelent in the Far East.

    I started my LDR in Feb. this year with the express intention of being honest and faithful, because to me that's the only way to be in a relationship. Sticking by those ideals I have found a woman (Zeth) who is exactly what I have been looking for for so long. I intend to remain honest and faithful, especially now that I can see HER loyalty and love in return.

    Yes its hard. And I agree wholeheartedly with everything everyone has said here. Thanks guys. It just makes me realise that I'm on the right track.

    Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end.

    Whatever is meant to be will always find its way.

    1. trust
    2. love
    3. friendship
    4. respect
    5. PATIENCE

    LOL! Is this thread about LDRs or about Steves?

    Erm, anyway, I think LDRs are all about getting used to not having what most other couples take for granted. If you're a loving couple, you'd appreciate being able to hold hands, hug, kiss, and do all sorts of other things that folks in LDRs just aren't able to do (like maybe ). Haha!

    People around you may not understand why you're in a relationship with someone who is thousands of miles away. My dad tried for a few months to make me break up with my bf. He said that if I really wanted a boyfriend, why not just find someone here in the US? Why insist on being online every single day just to talk to someone 6000 miles away? My answer was always that he was worth every second of it (and every tear, every sigh, every frown). Besides, it got easier after the first visit, especially since he made me promise no more tears.

    If you find that one person you're meant to be with, nothing else will matter. And on the matter of trust, he/she wouldn't betray your trust anyway. Anyone who does is obviously not the right person.

    I guess if you want the Long Distance Relationship works, first you need to be honest to your partner all the time.. And second, Trust even though your million miles away from each other he/she have the trust..That's what really important and last sacrifice to test how much you love your partner in time that your were apart because you want a better future for her/him.

    This is very true, I have a very dry and sometimes sarcastic sense of humour and a tendency to exaggerate a situation to stress my point, which most Brits get as we see it every day on TV comedy shows. This is very often taken as fact at the other end of my Yahoo chat. Fortunately, Elaine has a great sense sense of humour too and can wind me up as much as I wind her up. Working in a call centre dealing with Aussies for the last 2 years has given her a pretty good understanding of the western sense of humour.
    Back on thread: I agree with everything that's been said, communication, honesty, openess and trust are the key ingredients, love on its own is not enough. I've been with Elaine for 5 months and so far none of the paranoia that was in my previous LDR has surfaced because we both try hard to make sure the above ingredients are always present and we don't shy away from asking difficult questions.

    ... You only get out of the relationship what u are prepared to put in ...so if u dont make much effort, dont be surprised if u get dumped!!!
    IMO it is much harder than short distance; Perseverance and also the ability to look at the big picture are the two musts.

    it is very hard when your loved one is 7,000 miles away.

    Talking everyday and speaking everyday.

    But it is so worth it, and you dream and think about the day you get to see her smile and hold her. That keeps me going
