    Sorry that came out weird... I just mean, is this your first ever long distance relationship?  Or have you been in an LDR before... and if so, how did it end?

    heh, how potentially salacious, mr. bee!

    this is my first and only ldr, and ironically, my first long-term serious relationship. figures it would be with a boy i don't see that often. hahaha

    haha, I was wondering about this thread, Mr. Bee!

    It was my first and only LDR, and I'm so glad it's over! (the long distance part, not the relationship part!) :-)

    FI and I were LD for two years while I was in college.  It was my first long distance relationship and I am GLAD the long distance part is over.  I wouldn't be able to do it again.

    LOL, those words could mean sooo many things.

    I have never been in a LDR. I give MAJOR props to all the bees that have been in one or are currently in one. I dont think I would have the strength.

    No. This is my 3rd relationship that had at least some time spent as LD.

    The summer between freshman and sophomore year of college I dated a guy who was in NC while I was in MI; then later my college boyfriend and I were long distance for our second semester of dating (we dated my sophomore year through 6 months after graduation) while I was in France, studying.

    The former was relatively functional; the latter was when our relationship went sour, he was manipulative, jealous, controlling, basically a jerk. And I didn't get it. Hah.

    Mr. Doxie was actually my second LDR.  The first did not end well at all... I found out my ex was still living with his "ex" girlfriend!  I started to get suspicious once I noticed he was always the one to visit, not letting me travel to see him.  In hindsight, he was gross anyway  : )

    Long distance is definitely tough.  But, I think it's definitely worth it with the right partner!

    Not quite, the guy I was with before the bf I was at university with. We went home for summer break and it was very difficult to see each other, we went 5 weeks, and during that time I felt his attitude about us change. By the time we went on holiday together with his family towards the end of summer, he said on the first night "this holiday is make or break for us". Some holiday! I spent my whole time worrying and trying to carry on as normal. He broke up with me on the last day of the holiday. I got on really well with his family as well.

    It just wasn't meant to be, and I'm over all that now but at the time it felt my world had ended as it came out of nowhere. I'm glad I'm not with him now, he'd do my head in! We're still friends though.

    I am a serious LDR hussy - I've been in several! This one is so, so different though - a totally different level of commitment and trust that has made it so much easier. My previous LDRs were much more clingy, needy and stressful. I miss FI a lot but there are no trust issues, and with the wedding in the not too distant future, I know there is an end date, which keeps me sane. I think LDRs are hardest when you don't have a plan going into it.

    @DD: lol it was the first word that came to mind that was the opposite of virgin. haha actually, another one came to mind but it wouldn't be appropriate! Hussy is still kinda funny because no one really uses that word except older people :)

    My SO were each other's "firsts." We'd say it was worth the plunge!
