my girlfriend lives 39 miles away if we're both living at home, and even that seems like a long distance to me. We both go to the same school but I won't have a semester together with her for a long time because of co-op, semesters at other schools, and her at school during the summer.
It's hard not being down the street from someone you want to spend so much time with. However, it always does make the time we spend together amazing. I live with a couple at my school house who have been going out for just over a year so I hear a fair amount of what goes on between them. It pains me to see that they supposidely love eachother so much yet it doesn't seem that way by how they treat eachother sometimes. If being long distance puts a strain on a relationship, then for damn sure being too close would seem to do the same thing, if you're not ready for it.
As for communicating long distance, we usually talk on msn, but i'd probably rather do phone. Arch, you perhaps have made your best post yet in this thread, and I totally appreciate seeing all the other views and situations that others have described as well.
