Guys, long distance relationships... I don't really recommend them. I mean, you gotta do what you gotta do, but really the long distance is really hard. Especially when the other party doesn't even have a wireless connection, meaning no facetime or Skype calls. Oh, and every time he calls you the phone cuts out because the service is so shoddy where he is.
The last time I saw Chad was 2 1/2 weeks ago... for 3 hours. And before that it was another 2 weeks. And the next time I see him wont be for another 4 1/2 weeks. And that's not even a guarantee.
It's a sad state of affairs when you realize that you've spent the majority of your relationship with someone, missing them. It's even sadder when you don't really have a light at the end of the tunnel.
Am I crazy for doing this?

I don't know if this helps or not, but my sister went long distance with a guy for...pause for effect... 8 years. Not kidding. She lived in Provo for 5 and the Pennsylvania for 3, while he lived in St. Louis for the duration. There were stretches of separation, but never more than six months at once, and not more than 1.5 years in total. And now they're married and expecting in February.
They certainly didn't like the distance, but it was worth it, so they kept plugging along at it.
I guess my point is, if it's worth it, it's worth it, and if it works out, then you've got a lot of strength to fall back on.
David and I spent our entire relationship long-distance. I have to say that there are things I like about it more than being in a relationship with someone who lives down the road. I think I got to know him better on a level that was important to me because we were forced to talk. and I think it is worth it if the person is worth it to you. Does that mean you're sane? Not necessarily.
