kahit saan pa kahit sa own backyard kung gagawin ang panloloko magagawa. Trust, love and constant communication is very important.

whether this kind of relationship will work or not, the thing you have to listen is the voice of your heart. you also have to use common sense to wake up and understand life. you do not have to worry, but take good care of yourself and life can go on. love yourself... God bless!

matuto lang magtiwala... dati kasi wala ako nun kaya yung past relationship ko with seaman, saka isang OFW e hindi nag-work...

it is deceiving if we only listen to a person, words are easy to say. men may just invest phoning and eating only but building trust is another first and important character. listen to an experienced friend or family member, especially the older people in their sixties (60's). they have better words to say and comment. they have the vision to see the prospective view of your thought and beat of your heart. do not hesitate to ask the golden age.

 "And ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation." --Kahlil Gibran

"Long distance relationships require a special willingness and understanding that can test love like no other type of relationship can. It requires constant communication and a desire to continually create your relationship, using the only real tool you have... your words." quoted from lovingyou.com

Sure...it will and the tips below might help..

1. Keep in touch daily. If large phone bills are a concern, send e-mail, letters, cards and even faxes.

2.Plan reunions to keep both of you pleased about the relationship. If your partner needs closeness, set up plans to meet often. Having a date to look forward to can help you through the rough times.

3. Reaffirm your love and commitment to one another. Try not to assume that the relationship is thriving. Listen to your partner's concerns and communicate your own before they become bigger problems.

4. Keep your partner informed about your life. You may live separately, but sharing information about your activities and friends is still important.

5. Trust in one another. Suspicion will only break the relationship down.

6. Keep the relationship a high priority. Avoid canceling reunions or putting off a phone call.

7. Focus on the future. Make plans to live in the same city eventually.

All your comments and suggestions are true but you are forgetting the real world. Pag malayo ko mas parang magnet and temptation and peer pressure. Ang kailangan is more on self control and keeping yourself busy i didnt meen not to socialize or bury yourself to work. I mean do it in more moderate manner and avoid groups that you think would encourage you to do things that eventually would hurt your LDR. In terms of communication with LDR lots of people think that constant communication helps a lot to the extent that they make calls or emails more than required to be judged as suspicious. Minsan kasi it irritates na eh and this would lead to stress in your relationship that would eventually break it up. So communicate in moderation only just to keep the trust. Sabi nga nila ang relationship di dapat laging mahigpit o laging maluwag ang hawak dapat alam mo kung kailan hihigpit at kailan luluwag.Balance is one of the best key to a successful LDR.

How to make a Long Distance Relationship work

1. Ask the important questions.Setting parameters such as naming your relationship ( dating, seeing each other, boyfriend/girlfriend, engaged)as well defining exclusive(limited to one person,) non exclusive. These can be difficult and awkward questions to ask, but will save you great heartache and misunderstanding down the line.

2. Communicate in some way every daymore than once if possible. Since you won't be seeing each other, it's important to establish and maintain an emotional connection.

3.  Avoid the temptation to be controlling. People have free will and no one can or should control another person. As long as you are both interested in being in the relationship, you will stick with it and distance will not make a difference. As soon as one of you decides the other is not a good match - or someone else is a better match - your relationship ends, whether you live 3000 miles apart, two streets over, or share the same bed with your wedding picture on the wall. You are going to have to trust each other completely if this relationship is going to work.

4.  Talk about your future together.Assuming that ultimately you'd want to live together, discussing how you're going to get to that point will help you prove to each other that the relationship is going somewhere and that your efforts and frustrations are not in vain.

5.  Know when to say goodbye. While this is tough in any relationship, this can be especially hard over long distances. When communication becomes one-sided or sparse for too long and for no apparent reason, when arguments (yes, you'll have them) become too frequent, when the whole thing just seems like more trouble than it's worth, it's time to re-evaluate the relationship. You have to remember that for a healthy relationship, no matter how far or close, you must be willing to let go.

6.  Remember: things will get better with time, and even the relationship will become better. Have hope.

7.  Visit often Try to make the time to visit each other as often as possible or as often as your budget permits you to. A relationship cannot thrive if the only thing you have is the phone calls. You need to see each other up close and personal every chance you get. The key here is to set up some "rules" about frequency of communication and visits and stick to them, consistency can help a LDR survive.

8.  Avoid jealousy and be trusting One of the easiest ways to destroy a perfectly healthy relationship is to poison it with jealousy.Just because you are in a LDR, you lives won't pause. Your partner will naturally have a social life where he/she lives and so should you. Sure it helps to have your eyes open and not be totally naive but being overly suspicious is unhealthy for you and your relationship too. You should both maintain your social activity and be happy with yourselves.

9.  Be positive Staying positive and not focusing on the negative aspects of a LDR is essential to keeping your relationship blooming and your partner content.

Long distance dating is all about a balanced relationship between partners; a relationship built on strong foundations of trust, understanding and determination to make it work. The two partners should be reasonable about their expectations and willing to cooperate so that this relationship can lead to a happy ending. If these parameters are taken care of, you have nothing to worry about.
