Question Thank you for your responding to my question. Although you might think that its a waste of time/energy. It's not. I know what you might be thinking, that I'm a lonely socially awkward person without friends and the internet it is the only way I meet people. I'm not. I know that the way we meet isn't the most conventional way but somehow even with the distance we make it work, when I said handful of times I should have been clear about the number, we've been together about number, in the past 3 years we've seen each over about 12 times, every 3 months or so ranging from 3-10 days. And we talk via web cam daily, long distance is hard we both know and everything hasn't been smooth for us either. We both know that this isn't going to be forever just temporary till I'm through with med school and he's completed his MBA. But thank you non the less for your response it was much appreciated.
Answer thanks for the additional info..i don't recall the original question however; generally, my opinion of long distance arrangements isn't good, especially if they go on for a year or more; seeing each other 4 times a year in REAL life, is not very much, and you continue to have no idea how these love interests will be after you're with them much more often..but maybe you'll beat the odds and it will work out..
