How long do you have to be together..

[Briteena]

in a long distance relationship to know that he or she is worth keepin' around for a long long time?

I say keep trucking until you don't want to anymore.

 

Why does it matter? I mean really, put as much into it as you want, you'll find out sooner or later if it will be long term.

Statistically speaking, I think it takes about 2.4 weekend visits on average to know for sure. Or until he professes his love for you. Whichever comes first.

deaton, I like your way of thinking. I think we should hook up.

 

In fact, I think I love you.

I am going on the assumption that you are in a long distance relationship possibly, just by the fact that you asked this question.

 

If this is the case, how far apart do you live from this person? How often do you get to see each other? How serious are you both about continuing the relationship?

 

Maybe you could offer a bit more info about your situation. I am sure there are quite a few people here that have given long distance relationships a try and could offer some additional thoughts for you.

We are separated by a mountain range and nearly 2000 kilometers. It's a fly in fly out situation only. We were seeing eachother every three weeks, although it's less now since our schedules have become busier and much more difficult to work around. I'm pretty serious about the relationship, and think I can be as bold to say that he is too.

lol... you guys remind me of that commercial

"Hi, I'm Dave."

"Hi, I'm Beth."

"So, do you wanna get married?"

"Sure!"

Anywho, from the beginning of my LDR I felt it was worth any amount of effort. It's normal to question it, but as long as you two are happy with the relationship, just keep up whatever you're doing that's working out so well.

I feel obligated to point out that deaton is actually my LDR parter in crime. I don't think I love him, I know I do. And seeing as he told me he loved me after 2.4 weekend visits, I guess that means he's worth keeping around for a long long time.
