    why is he living with a "one night stand"? that seems rediculous to me, even if they were both single, except to keep them both around the baby, but yeah... i wouldn't trust it, and would break it off with him. if his concern is being around the baby (which obviously it isn't since he wasn't willing to move permanently to california.) he could have moved in with somebody else, or moved somewhere close to her, but not living WITH her. also, if they're poor, they can each get roommates. oh and an hour and a half is nothing compared to other ppl's distance... some ppl commute that far every day to and from work in huge cities.

    in short, definitely leave him.

    Here is my opinion. You are absoultely correct, if love is strong enough then yall work work through the thick and thin to make it work. The distance does not matter, if your love for each other is that strong then being apart for a while will not make a difference. It does depend on how much you both are willing to work through it but if the love is there, then there are no questions about it, yall will be able to work through it. In my experience the whole long distance relationship thing does not work, but then again, every relationship I have been in hasnt worked. I mean think about it.....a relationship will either fail, or it wont. You could get married to this person, but the relationship can still fail. So basicallly, you either fail at every relationship in your life, no relationships in your life (that would mean you were only in one relation ship and stayed in it till death do you part), or every relationship in your life but one. So go for it!!! If it fails, so what atleast you gave it a try and you will be able to know that you gave it a try. There is nothing worse than thinking what could have benn if you would have tried. Its better to try and fail than it is to never try at all. GOOD LUCK!

    Long distance relationships depend on a few factors. Firstly, how in LOVE are BOTH parties? And by love i mean total commitment, monogamy, trust and respect. Also, how often does the couple talk on the phone and meet in real life? If there are long periods of not seeing eachother the distance literally gets to the relationship. To sound cliche, if it's meant to be, it will last over time and distance... if not, you know deep down it wasn't gonna work out anyway...

    ugh. in a nutshell, long distance relationships SUCK!

    I say it depends on how bad you want the relationship to work, and how much you love each other.

    Sometimes you can love each other till no end; but distance and circumstance can prevail. Make sure if you fall in love, wether its online or not, tell that person and show that person how much they mean to you. Don't wait, be open, be honest, make them feel secure. Communication is vital. If it is a long distance relationship, make your appearance to that person as soon as possible. If you love each other enough, you can relocate to be with one another regardless of school, work, home, ect. If you don't give them your love and PHYSICAL companionship, in time, someone else will. So, go be with the one you love before its too late.


    TRUST ME


    peace, light, and solidarity

    I live in Amsterdam and my boyfriend lives somewhere southwest of London. Theres water between us, land, and a country difference (he's half dutch though).
    Still we managed to see eachother one week every month, about that. And we had so much time together already. And talk all day. And its working fine.

    I think it cán work, aslong as some day you can live together.

    Um... leave him....sorry but that's what I would do (that's for Mallory). Honestly, once a guy has a "family" that's not you, there's another woman who's going to be in his life, having his child...the risk of unfaithfulness is HUGE. Trust me on this one... no offense to single dads out there who AREN'T scumbags, (i'm sure there are a lot of you out there, really), but honestly, that's not a good situation, from what I've personally experienced. Especially if you're not in the same city/state/etc... step cautiously.

    I believe that long-distance relationships can be better in the end rather than those closer to home relationships. This way your heart grows stronger and well you know what it feels like to miss someone. When you see the person all the time, it becomes rountine and anything to disrupt it only causes agruments. I think I wouldn't mind a long-term relationship, your conversations are longer and more in depth and love conquers all, just as long as both feel the same and are completely honest with each other. All you need is love =)

    i absolutly agree...

    i am in a long distance relationship and i am closer to him than anyone in my life and i love him more and more each day and i dont have to see him all the time. I know he is the love of my life, i have no doubt! I am completely happy. Its just a matter of time before i move only 30 minutes away, and im soo excited!

    much love,
    kaytee

    oh wow. you describe it so perfectly. i shared that with my boyfriend and we both agree that we couldnt have said it better ourselves :)


    i think me moving away and us being forced into a long distance relationship has made us so much stronger than it would have if i would have stayed there. we communicate so much better now because, in reality, thats really all you can do. and when we see each other (i just got back from a 3-week visit) we cherish our time together so much more. i saw him every single day in that 3 weeks and enjoyed every second of it. and yeah, i miss him (SO much) but i kno that things will be ok and that in a year (probably less) i will be living with him and we will be stronger than ever. we love each other so much and a little thing like 900 miles could never tear us apart :)

    I have tried it before, never works out. I prefer to be able to be close to the one I love; hold them, touch them and know that they are right there by my side.
