Will distance tear us apart ?

:(

okay so , i just met this new guy , we have been together a week , he used to live near me in georgia but he moved to chicago . I really like him and he claims to really like me BUT im not sure about a long distance relashionships , i have the fear of him cheating or him just one day waking up and saying its over because of the distance . So tell me what you think about long distance relashionships, do they usually work ? Should i stay with the guy of my dreams ?

After a week I really don’t know how well it could work. You haven’t really had the chance to see how you and him work out in the long run. But, hey, anything is worth a try right? Just keep it cool, see how things go. Good luck.

Hey, it could happen, anything could happen. If you really believe it could work, then it will…Just have faith in him.

Give it a shot, what do you have to lose? Maybe love will bloom and you two can travel to see each other :) Love is always a risk of the heart, distance or no distance.

long distance is to tricky…if you know the person well and you can trust them then YES but a new relationship it’s just to far …with long distance you’ll always have that feeling in your stomach!

what is this ‘guy of my dreams’ crap all about? you know almost nothing about this guy. maybe he’s great, but don’t put pressure on yourself to sustain a long distance relationship based on an idea of this guy you’ve largely made up in your imagination. chemistry is great, sure, but its also everywhere, all around us, not a once in a lifetime miracle of nature.

yeah…. I mean, after only a week, the relationship is more about the perfectly delicious traits that you have sort of imagined him to have. You really havent seen him mad, or confused, or tested in many ways. oh I guess becampio said all of this first. So Im kind of reinforcing it.

Yea when i read “guy of my dreams” i left this post because nothing i would say would be of benefit to her. Or taken lightly but i thought it was just me lol.

I know you are probably young but age doesnt have anything to do with it. Just think past your hormones and really think if this relationship could work. It could it couldnt. But like becampio said dont put so much pressure on yourself on a relationship based off a week. Everyone have a mask the first few months (years). So just be careful and smart…. ok now im done lol

is it the same guy you were writing about before? the guy that has another gf and doesn’t want to commit to you?
i’m asking because i hope you took our advice, because if it is the same guy, i doubt ANY kind of relationship would work!

if it is a new guy, then good luck to you! if two people really care about each other and want to be together, they can make anything work.

Hmm, reading your old posts, I’m inclined to say that no - it probably wont work. You’re only a kid, last week you were in love with someone else.

Let him date others. Things torn apart can be put back together.
