I agree with Damasa, that is a good line! I might have to use that one :)

You're welcome! Good luck on the new relationship and let us know if it works out.

I will be sure to keep ya'll posted :)

I agree that ld relationships are hard to deal with, but they can be very rewarding in the end. Distance makes the heart grow fonder, as they say. I'm dealing with an ld right now. He's in Germany; I'm in Texas. One huge upside is that the only thing you can do with distance between you is talk. You learn so much more about each other this way.

Oh, I'm an Iota Beta alum. Ask Lynette who I am.

i say go for it but please take all the advice that has been given - its very good stuff.

my own personal opinion - i would never do it again. i have had 3 long distance relationships and they all ended very badly with lots of hurt feelings on both sides. cheating, loneliness, lack of communication, issues with time spent, jealousy, accusations...every problem seemed magnified because they werent there in the flesh to talk about it with.

i, of course, wish you and this fellow nothing but happiness and i hope everything works out!
