Well, what kind of relationship are you talking about?

People have penpals from across the world and they form great friendly relationships between them. I know this because I have friends who have pen pals and they write each other often.

If you talking a more intimate relationship, then the distance would put a strain on it. It is difficult to have an intimate relationship with a person far away. For example, to have an intimate relationship with God, you have to draw closer to Him. You cannot stay from afar and say you have an intimate relationship with Him. Being intimate, means to be close.

You can continue to be good friends during a long distance relationship, but it is hard to go further than that.

I was not refering to God. I am talking about a relationship between a man and woman.

I know. I was taking from personal experience, of a relationship I am in, to make comparison of a relationship between a man and woman over a distance.

I dont have a great opinion on this, because I seen someone do this and all of her family told her it was a bad idea. But she didnt listen and she got hurt because the guy was keeping another woman with her and he had a kid by the other woman. She even wanted to continue being with him after she found out. Thats very low self esteem to me and I glad she did finally wake up and she got it together before he did it to her again.

No on long distance relationships!

No I don't believe in Long Distance relationships with respect to boyfriend/girlfriend thing. Reason, the two parties aren't seeing much of each other. You don't know what is going on with the other party since you ain't seeing him/her.

So NO to that thought

[Arch_Angel]

So you don't believe in long distance relationship because you can't keep an eye on them? If you don't trust the person, why be in a relationship with them?

You go into relationships with persons you don't trust Chico? :eusa_thin :)

Separation isn't a good thing for relationships especially in the early stages where the bonding should be taking place. During this early phase of the relationship, people are getting to know each other, building up confidence and trust in each other, and also sharing happy experiences which help to deepen the love and affection. If you interrupt that process before it has matured sufficiently, there is a greater risk of the relationship falling away during the period of separation.

Once that process of bonding has matured, it is easier for persons to endure separation and distance. There's still a big risk of failure, but would not be as high as before.

The survival of a long distance relationship will depend upon the strength of each persons committment to each other, and their integrity.

Don't know if they work or not. I suppose that's up to the people involved.
