I was in a long distance relationship which lasted 3 years. He was never there to celebrate birthdays and holidays. Never there for me during troubling times. LDRs are more trouble than they are worth.

They are so difficult, a year after 'aleman' left the country we are still battling, we are no longer together, but we still have feelings for each other, after only actually seeing each other for two months.

Its really difficult

It's hard to really know a person face to face more less long distance

I so agree and unfortunately i am in one. They're bad because yo don't get to see one and other, and be intimate like proper relationship. A bus trip or a train trip isn't as bad as say someone in England and someone in America.. If one wants to live with another they have to get money for plane tickets and from my experience visas are confusing.
Long distance relationships can be frustrating as i know and it's stressful and upsetting because you can't cuddle the person you love when you feel down. Or be sexually intimate when the mood strikes

Ya ..why do you ask?
Because you don't get to see them that much and also you don't really if they're going out with other girls/guys behind your back. & that is where i ended up.

Because when you start liking other people and someone could cheat on the other with out them knowing.

Definitely its unhealthy and worst of all it causes a lot of arguments and a lot of boredness over each other because apart from doing anything else than chatting on the phone the relationship is pretty boring itself even provided with some who can be really creative, it will come to a halt eventually...

I agree with Jake. A couple should be there for each other, not in a different country or state or whatever. How could you ever fully trust the person? It just leads to people getting hurt.

I agree. In many circumstances, they can cause more pain than they are worth. Relationships are based on regular contact with each other, and with a long distance relationship, it just doesn't happen. There's no trust there either.

It's the person in the relationship who should decide.

Why is it so bad? You're just two people far away, knowing that someone is there for you may just help you're self confidence by tonnes.

 some people are not responsible and can cheat on one another, which is not cool.

How far is long distance? Is an hour bus journey too much to sacrifice for a loved one? Surely any distance can be conquered in the name of love!

 I am a huge believer in the love that can conquer anything, but i was referring to a relationship, an average relationship. If I was that in love with someone, I'd move heaven and earth to be with them. The fact that you would even consider having a long distance relationship devalues the relationship as a whole.
