Hope here, from Louisiana, 37 yo female. We met online last March. I met her f2f in October in her city. I was very attracted to her and already loved her. On December 5, she said she liked me. I spent the better part of the month getting clarification about what she meant because I couldn't believe that she liked me. She flew in to see me on January 15, 2013 and everything was electric. We ignited instantly. Sparks flew, fireworks, the whole nine yards. She only stayed for a couple of days, and I had to see her again. She gave me a shirt that she had worn and I gave her a shirt that I had worn before we parted ways. We Skype date. We make meals together on Skype and eat together. We talk on the phone. We text a lot. Between December and February, I have sent/received about 15K texts. I started writing her and mailing letters to her. She lights up my life and I can't seem to get enough. I wake looking forward to hearing from her and she is the last person I hear from before I go to sleep. I look forward to our Skype dates and spending time together. I am always working on seeing her or some way we can connect. So glad I found these forums.

Closing The Distance - Watch this space

In the title, I say first (and hopefully only) because when I was a teen I had a distance relationship. I met a guy in summer camp and wrote letters to him for years. We drifted apart and never saw each other again.
I am in love with my partner and really want it to work. That's why I said "my first (& hopefully only) adult LDR." I am here trying to do everything I can to see that it lasts. We are very happy together.

Thanks everyone!
Having this community here helps. I printed some stationary and wrote letters to her last week and will probably write another this week.
The distance is sometimes hard. When I read that others have done it for years, sometimes a take a big gulp. There are times when I want my gf now. I can't imagine doing it for years (the distance). I am willing to do whatever it takes.
