But those who are, enjoy them immensely. First of all, if you're the type who needs to have their significant other around them at all times, chances are you don't like long distance relationships and shouldn't try one. For those who have a hectic schedule and don't have time for traditional relationships, maybe a long distance relationship is perfect for your situation. Most of the people in long distance relationships are those who don't have the time to give one hundred percent to someone at that particular time. Of course, they have to find a way to make their relationship work, even if it is long distance. There are certain things to do to keep them alive. Different things work for different people. "When it comes to long distance relationships, my friends tell me I'm stupid for even trying to get in one. But it's the best thing for me. First of all, I don't have to tell anyone where I'm going, and I don't have anyone to stop me. A lot of my friends can't even go anywhere without their significant other questioning their every move. With me, I come and go as I please. I have the best of both worlds. I have someone, but I also have my freedom. We still see each other once a month, which is enough for the both of us. We cram thirty days of not being together into one weekend -- maybe more, depending on if there's a holiday or not. I've had three long distance relationships, and all have worked out for the best." When it comes to advice on relationships, the key is knowing which relationships suit you best. If you feel comfortable with online relationships or long distance relationships, go for it. Even celebrity relationships aren't perfect. Do what makes you feel comfortable. Mon, 21 Nov 2005 12:00:07 EST
