    Greetings, and all that jazz

    Hi everyone! I've stumbled upon this website on a mad rush to figure out whether getting into a long distance relationship would be a logical venture, since I've been on the other side of the fence and firmly believed long distance relationships are more of a heartache and headache.

    You can probably surmise that I've been burned by bad decisions in terms of love and relationships before. And they weren't LDRs, so I wasn't too keen on something that's even harder to work at!

    Obviously, I have joined the LDR group and I am babbling now. Sorry! But I am getting to it, which is that I'm here because while I have friends who have gone through/are presently going through LDRs who I can talk to about mine, sometimes I just feel guilty unloading on them constantly. I haven't really, but I thought I'd nip that in the bud early on. Plus, it's a great distraction reading other people's posts and I'm hoping to be encouraged by you guys too!

    Gods, I really just blathered on, didn't I. Apologies again! Basically -- HELLO!

    I just wanted to reply to this in particular... I had terrible relationships before my LDR and was quite hesitant entering into 10k mile international LDR... but its the best relationship I've ever had - even in the hardest moments of being apart it was worth it and the relationship still made me happier than any ex close distance one. We now live together but if I had to go long distance again to be with him I would (god hope we don't have to go long distance again!)
