My boyfriend and I lived across Europe from one another and saw each other 3 times a YEAR - for 5 years until we could finally move in together. So, I don't see the problem here. :roll:

That's how me and that ex did things. She'd usually come up for Christmas, and I did all the driving since her anxiety kept her from getting a driver's license until she was in her early thirties. Long after we broke up. I suspect her anxiety and my depression both played a big part in the relationship falling apart.

I have done similar repeatedly before and I hated it. It definitely isn't for everyone.

I guess within driving distance barely feels like long distance to me :laugh: But you're right, it's not easy, and not for everyone, especially when the relationship is just one week old.

Also, if you live in a city two hours of driving is nothing. I wouldn't consider two hours of driving away as really "long distance". Hell you could drive there after work for a quick booty call if you really wanted to. I feel like a relationship that can't survive that is kind of failing for other reasons, like laziness? This is assuming both people have cars though.

City driving is different than BFE driving. Even on the interstate. And especially if you're in one that still has its horse-and buggy street layout (you've got no excuse for not changing things after that fire, Boston).
At that point, the biggest city I'd in was Wichita. I'm now in KCK and still think anything over an hour is nonsense that takes too long. Thankfully, the only time I've had to drive in Chicago was at 4:00AM to drop off some railroaders.
As for Europe, 1 mile is equal to 1609.344 m (1609,344 m). Which countries? Most are comparable to U.S. states.

To be fair, neither Wichita nor KCK are big cities.

That's subjective to where you grew up.

I grew up in a town of less than 10K people.
