Long Distance Relationships...

[Dposh167]

I really don't see how you can get to know someone over the phone. I would much rather us talk face to face eye to eye. I think that is truly how you get to know someone. Sure I can call and talk on the phone but for some reason with him I just haven't. .

with you feeling like this (the bolded)...how were u expecting to stay involved with a guy n a LDR?...the bulk of your communication is over the phone. so you would be getting to know him over the phone.

5 long years in a LDR. About 3 years too long. It is a drain and a drag. Both individuals have to be vested. I ended up doing 80% of the driving, and 90% of the romantic gestures. My prince reverted right back to a frog, and I had to let his slimy arse go. It is NOT the ideal. Absence doesn't make the heart grow fonder...at all. Never again. You have to be within state lines or the metro area for us to date. Period. End of story.

Absence makes people forget or at the very least allows people to pretend you don't exist.

I just wanted to add my 2 cents. I am currently in a long distance relationship (not by choice) and it's with my husband. I would not wish that on anybody. Imagine the normal stresses of a relationship. And now multiply it by 10. It is very difficult to try to maintain a healthy relationship while separated.

That being said- I don't think that you are anywhere near that stage. You just chilled 3 times? You've never even talked on the phone? And he wants you to call him? As in he wants you to do all the work?

I'm sorry but he doesn't seem interested. Seems like the only thing he's interested in is stroking his ego to see how much you will pursue him.

Don't do it girl
