LOVE LONG DISTANCE

This is a topic that came up recently in a discussion I was having with a friend. Do you think that it is possible to sustain a relationship miles apart?

In the world of cyberspace people are hooking up in many ways. They talk in chat rooms, instant message, texting and email. My thought on this is that as long as people are communicating then things can flow. There are people that look at each other everyday and barely speak in passing, so why couldn’t non face to face interaction work?

I actually have a very good friend that met her husband over the phone lines. She was hooked up by her cousin with a friend of his. They spoke daily and when they finally met it was instant chemistry because they had already gotten to know each other. They got married after 3 months of dating and it is still going strong 5 years later. Of course they were both older and maybe were ready for that commitment but it worked.

In reflecting, this might be a better solution to “dating”. People don’t have that pressure of putting on airs. Over the phone people tend to be who they really are, you take a lot of pressure out of the physical aspect of it and I think that if a person is willing to communicate with you without the physical they are more likely to be genuine. Lets face it there is no need to fake the front to someone you don’t see on a regular bases.

Let me know what you think…can it work or not?
