I've done them before and they can work, the key is not falling to hard until you follow through on plans to get together. Its easier if the distance isn't too great and you can get together fairly easily...but I guess maybe that doesn't count as a long distance relationship anyway. The problem with most long distance relationship is neither person has any intention of uprooting their lives and in turn the relationship ends up playing out on the phone or Internet, being more of an infatuation then a budding relationship or a chance to fall in love. In that case no they don't work, you never develop any physical bond and eventually somebody gets bored or fed up and moves on.
