I like her, and she likes me... That's the easy part, ironic since usually that's the hardest part.

I know she's willing to try long-distance... I'm not sure that I want to do that, but that's not what I'm torn about.

How exactly does one do a long-distance relationship? If I decide that I can do this, I don't know what it entails. I mean... we only hung out once before I moved, cause it sort of grew over the last summer, though I knew I liked her since last summer. But... I don't have any idea exactly how one does a Long Distance relationship.

*shrug* anyone been in one? It's always been something I told myself I wouldn't do... but obviously I'm reconsidering.

On the plus said, I finally found myself a dealer today. I was out for a run, and some guy was walking around with a bunch of brownies and baggies and asked me if I wanted some. Wasn't even looking lol. Plus, I got his number. So that makes me happy, way easy =)
Hmmmmm My last relationship started out as a long distance relationship. and after about 4 months she ended up moving in with me, and then about 9 months later we got happily married! But after 4 and a half years of marriage now we are going through a divorce..The reason why our marriage failed is cause we rushed it way too fast, way too fast! and most of that was due to the distance between us in the first place. Its hard to trully get to know the way your going to interact fully with that person when your having a long distance relationship, I honestly thought she was the one for me, but In the begining when we visited each other all we got to see of each other was the good side, not the bad. and eventually we both revealed our incompatability. I honestly don't think I'll ever get involed in a long distance relationship again, but my problems were not all to do with the distance. I rushed everything, and so did she...I should've taken more time to get to know her before she moved in with me.

So my advice is if you do this long distance relationhship take it slow and just see where it goes. Ya never know it might work, but ya never know if ya don't try. The main problem i find with long distance relationship is, you don't have enough time when you/she is visiting to truly get to know each other, and in order to trully get to know each other you have to close the gap and that ussually involves one of you moving, and thats a huge step. Some people can make it work, but its an risky situation. and going from a long distance relationship to a face to face relationship is ussually quite the adjustment.
