Ok, well. Let me give everyone a scenario. This is for a friend of mine :snky:

Guy meets girl. Guy and girl click right away. Girl is absolutely gorgeous. Guy starts to have a thing for girl. Seems like girl has thing for guy. Problem is…guy lives in Buffalo and the girl lives in rochester. Guy has a car, girl doesn’t. Do you think as 18 year olds that they would be able to work things out and have a long distance relationship. The girl is going to college in Batavia though (GCC). So thats a lil closer than Rawchester. Do you think as college students they would be able to work things out, and compromise. My friend is willing to drive to rochester to see her all the time, if thats what it comes down to.

What do you guys think, and from personal experince.

Newman shut up about doing her at the dinner table… 🙂

Buffalo and Rochester is NOT long distance. My girl is 5 hours away by plane which pretty much spans half the US and the Carribean. That is long distance.

If your said friend and the girl can’t work through it when they are an hours apart by car, they shouldn’t be with each other.

In a word, NO.

Long distance relationships (almost) never work out unless there is a substantial relationship built before it went long distance. Besides, being 18, it doesnt have much chance of lasting past a month either way.

edit: on second thought… anyone even thinking about relationships at that age is missing out!

i had one, we broke up… Maybe it’s the buffalo/Rochester thing.

im currently in another and its going great… it sucks being apart… I see her about twice a month if im lucky. But when we are together we are like rabbits 🙂 It all depends how you can handle it/ how high maintenance the people in the relationship are/ how serious they are about each other. If a couple can get through a long distance relationship they are golden

I know I could never have had a long distance relationship… I get depressed when I don’t see Brandon for 3 days. 😛

And like others have said, Buffalo and Roch. aren’t that far away.

I Was with a girl for almost 3 years… now i’m 21 my priority is to get drunk as much as possible work as much as possible get my degree … fuck who I Want when I want

that should be their focus right now, and then the relationship comes last. If it’s meant to be they will be able to work through the distance.

G/L either way

soooo is this really for you or for a friend?

i dunno, give it a shot, can’t really hurt. or you could just be like ‘oh we didn’t try so we never knew what could have happened’ if it were me i’d give it a shot, if nothing else just to get with her ass. to be friends with it.
