I can't think of any other reason it shouldn't work that hasn't already been said.
Depends entirely on the couple and the circumstances.
But I do think It is difficult enough to know someone when they are right next to you let alone oceans apart.

It is OK to be in love with someone far away, but it doesn't necessarily mean that anything is going to happen. When relationships are stretched like this, it is very hard to maintain a good trust level and it is also very easy to drift apart because you each have your own thing going on where you are. Staying in contact becomes less and less frequent until it no longer exists. Unless you truly are in love, then nothing can keep you apart, but more than likely, nothing will come of it.

Geeeee, I'm flattered Kitten, really I am,
you really have me blushing here.
But like you say, the distance would be to great for us, guess it will have to remain admiration from afar.

Hmmm, it depends on what you are looking for in that relationship, and if there is any likelihood of a physical union. Some people might like the distance because it allows, *ahem*...more opportunities. There are some who are okay with that sort of arrangement, and others who keep a blind eye to it.

I've never loved anyone who lived an ocean away; however, I was once involved in a long distance relationship with someone who lived in another state. He traveled with his job and whenever he was in town, he'd give me a call. He was never there for birthdays & holidays, never close to me during troubling times. LDRs are more trouble than they are worth.

In some cases it's fine because some people are lucky enough to be able to meet each other (usually happens in movies), it's also good if you're already married or 'live together' but one partner has to work overseas for a while (might strain the relationship a little).

I believe however that in a majority of cases it's not fine (I don't quite understand the meaning of OK here). It can lead to all sorts of bad situations and you would have to work hard to keep each other interested.

What sort of love do you mean? Infatuation? Romantic? Shallow?

It is painful,
I tried with 'aleman',
it could not work, because just hearing his voice was not enough
