new long distance relationship

[mattheis]

ok, here we go. i met my girlfriend two months ago. i was on vacation in the city she lives which is three hours away. now i know that doesnt sound too bad. we talk on the phone nearly every night, some times just to say good night and to hear one anothers voice. ok, here's where it gets tricky, my girlfriend is my younger sisters college roomate (its an apartment thank God, not a dorm). Now the first time i visited, which was the first time i met her, everything between the roomates seemed fine. But, after the last two visits down there the tention between them has increased greatly (and of course the arguments are about something completely obsurd that shouldnt even be fought over), now they each individually come to me for advice on what to do about the other. now i dont mind this until they bring up my name in the arguments. Something i said in confidential secrecy was blurted out. A conventional long distance relationship, where two meet then move away is one thing. this is so much harder, trying to learn about the woman in a week out of the month, or even worse, from on the phone(it is hard to talk without being able to see her).

Well i guess that i forgot to ask a question, but if anyone has been through a similar situation, i would like to hear how it was handled or even any advice, thanks

Oh yeah, she is the girl i am going to marry, without a doubt, i am going to do ever single little thing i can possibly do to make it that way, and i know she will too.

Hmm ok first, long distance relationships.. WORK if you WANT them to.. and you MAKE them work.. none of this.. "they dont work " bullshit.. also..i duno thats for them to work out? they are roommates, they should figure it out, they are grown ups...

Im not really sure what to say.. well long distance relationships dont work at least i dont think so i had ONE and the guy i was with lived one hour and half away and that didn't work .I honestly just dont think they work.i mean they probably would if you really wanted them to i guess. But everyone is different just talk to ur partner about everything..take care
