I've been in a long-distance relationship for two and a half years... he's in Seattle, and I'm in Florida. While it obviously isn't ideal, you can make it work. We don't have a family cell phone plan, but we do both have Sprint, so it costs us nothing to talk to each other (a good thing too, cause we talk a LOT). We can't afford to fly and see each other very often, so we do it about every 3-4 months. It's hard, but if you're serious about staying together, you can get through it.
