I've never been in a long-distance relationship, but I would never want one. The reason is because IM and phone are really ineffective ways to satisfy my social needs--I like a really intense relationship with a lot of face-to-face and physical contact. When my SO is away I get all demanding and needy over the phone, and have to try hard not to be a real female dog because it's not his fault--it's just that nothing he does is enough, because I am not satisfied with just a voice in a machine.
