I've been in your shoes before broham, and it's not easy...I know. You'd like to think that talking on the phone and seeing each other every few weeks would be enough, but it's just not. You need the physicality...you need to spend time together...you miss the little things. It seems from reading your posts and chatting a bit that you really like her, and she really likes you, so you gotta do what you gotta do to make it work mang. As hard as it is, it will be worth it in the long run. And like derek said, that just means it'll get your ass kicked into gear to get down here with a quickness...which means we can all party soon enough. Good luck mang...I'm sure it'll work out for the best. We solid :goodjob:
:cheers:

It's crazy hard, I had one and it lasted 8 months over half a dozen planet tickets to and from HK and crazy phone bills (other side of the world).
Good luck, since it's 450 miles...it's do-able.

craziness man...I've seen all my friends, brother, cousin's long distance relationship end in a sad note. If u think that u and her are made for each other and u can see that u can marry this girl, then go for it. If not then I don't think it's worth the long term investment. :happysad:

LDRs are really hard, but it will work if you want it to.
I was in a LDR with a guy for about a year and a half, and he ended up breaking up with me because of the distance. I would've broken up with him anyway because he was an asshole, but that's a different story.
My husband and I were long distance for almost 2 years, being 400 miles apart for half the time (NJ to MD) and 3000 miles apart for the last half (CA to MD). It was so ****ing hard to be apart, but we wanted it to work more than anything, and it did. We completely savored every moment we had together, and when we were apart, we just kept (pardon my cheesiness) our eyes on the prize. We knew we'd be together physically at some point, and we just kept working toward that.
There's really not much you can do to stop the ache of being apart, but talking on AIM or the phone a lot helps. One thing I completely recommend is writing letters to each other. I don't mean emails, I mean actual letters. You'll have the opportunity to say things that you forgot to say in your other conversations and to express your true feelings in a non-rushed/stressed/pressured atmosphere. Also, once you're together all the time, you'll be glad you have all of those letters to look back on and remember how difficult the long distance was... which will make you appreciate being together even more.
Okay, I think I'm full up on sap tonight...
