Hello People What do you think of a long distance relationship? would anyone like to get involved into a such one? I've been close with women in the past, but never had a chance to have a relationship with a woman. And I've been thinking a lot about it lately ( well lately like a couple of years already) and it feels like it will do perfectly for me to be with a woman. So I decided to try but oh my, I just cannot meet a woman. May be I just didnt run into a bi/lesbian community yet lol, i dunno. or may be Greece is still too conservative for this, no idea, but I tried various web-sites, I tried hitting on girls in bars lol but still nthg. Only bi/lesbian women I met are my ex-roommate and her girlfriend and woman I met on a dating web-site, which is married to a man and just looking forward to entertain. So, I ve thought why not try to find someone from another country/continent, we could spend holidays/vacations together and if it goes well, may be one of us will decide to relocate in the future. just wondering what people think about it. and if you know some good lesbian dating web-sites, please let me know thank you
Hello again. Well a long distance relationship is doable but it's really hard. It would drive me crazy to be with someone and not be able to touch them or kiss them whenever I wanted to. But then again I am a very touchy feely person. Do you have any gay bars or clubs in your area? That would be the easiest place to meet ladies.
MayQueen yeah I know what you mean. I ve been penpals with a guy for almst 2 years. we planned on having vacation together and all the time smthg came up, either he didnt have time/money, or I. So eventually we decided to stop even talking, because it was just too hard and we both felt stack, for you start every morning thinking of how he's doing, whether he will contact you today or not and when the hell will he tell you "I am coming over!" lol but then, we both decided that it was better than nthg, so we are still friends looking forward to meet lol as for gay bars, we do have 'em here but situation there is strange, I visited such places a couple of times with my now ex-bf and they were packed with guys or couples. I was trying to meet a girl that time too, but I got a feeling like all gay girls were somewhere else but not there lol well, may be I should try more
I would only do long distance if the woman was worth it to begin with. Long distance for me would be a decent driving distance. Anyway, you should try Tangowire dating site, they're pretty good.
What kinds of attitudes do people in Greece have these days towards gay women? I went to Greece a couple of years ago, and would love to go back for some graduate work someday, but I wonder about how that would be as an out lesbian (the last time I went there I was less obviously and enthusiastically gay than I am now). I've got a lovely girl of my own at the moment, but good luck in your search for yours!
I did the long distance relationship for at least two years before I moved out to live her. I would visit a few times a year, I was like only 18 but damn plane tickets were way cheap back then. We're still together 7 years later, leaving in California. It can work for you but it is a process and there are sacrifices to be made ultimately!!!
well, attitudes vary. I know my ex-roomie and her gf had a bit of trouble, such as- her gf plays in a band that used to preform in a bar where older people come. So in a break time they usuly sat at a table with us, doing nthg much of an unusual: holding hands, hugging, well things that any straight couple would do on public. At some point, the owner of that bar asked her GF to behave, saying that he was suggested to say it by some visitors of the bar!! as they said, that the way girls behaved was so unpropriate or smthg, anyway some bs. but then again if you go to any of the islands such as Mykonos or Santorini, you will see gay people haging out and expressing themselves freely
Personally hoping my upcoming long distant relationship will work... My gf of over a year, is moving to a town 3 hours away to finish college. I'm upset, happy for her, and scared all at the same time. It feels like I just found her, and I'm losing her again. Ugh. I know many people make it work. Here's hoping! :cheers2:
Thank you. My plans are to throw myself into work and school. Take a lot of hours, keep myself busy... So I don't have time to think about stuff haha.
I'm in one right now. She lives in MA and I live in VA. I think it's helpful that we won't rush into things too quickly, but it does suck when it comes to physical affection.
yeah, getting occupied with smthg helps, when it comes to missing your beloved ones. I always use this method too it is tricky tho, a couple of times I happened to discover new interesting hobbies/activities for myself, while trying not to think of my complicated relationship, that I completely forgot about it afterall LOL
up until the beginning of this month, i was in a long distance relationship that lasted 10 months, saw her pretty much everyday in the summer (2 months) and every day in winter break (1 month). She is from my hometown but goes to school up north in NH, and i am in FL. We were pretty much great, and perfect for each other, just the timing wasn't right, she recently got an internship after her graduation this summer in yet another state farther away and decided things would only get much more difficult. IT was great while it lasted, and i personally wouldn't mind taking up another LDR, just as long as said person devoted some attention to me when needed, as well as can make plans to travel. I am also a very independent person, so a LDR is great cause you don't always have to be checking in with someone or making sure your not going to do something to bother them. We both fell in love, and it was fun while it lasted, but now on to the next one haha
