I think they can work if the relationship has a good solid foundation and the couple makes time to see each other and stays in regular communication.
My Grand Big has been in a long distance relationship for 6 years (since HS). They went to school in 2 different states (we're in OH and he went to Clemson), but they'd spent 2 years together before going to college so they had the foundation to make it work. He got a cell phone plan that would let her talk to him for free. She made it a point to see him at least monthly. They had their rough times, but they stuck it out, and now she's getting married and I'm going to be in her wedding.
