I think from the years I've been around on here the majority of people in LDRs either fall into them or they develop due to a change in circumstances. I don't know how many people go out and deliberately seek a LDR.

I agree!
I don't think many due consciously.. But, if you meet someone online or on a dating site that is in another country, you would make the decision to move on with that relationship knowing there was a distance. I don't think many people wake up after texting/chatting with someone on a game and say I love you and want to spend my life with you realistically. There has to be some knowledge at that point as to what is involved. You continue to grow or you stay friends etc.

Personally, I haven't really noticed any difference caused by the relationship type. Obviously, it has matured and progressed differently than my previous relationship, but I think that's mostly due to the fact that my SO is just different than my ex. He is actually committed to make things work and he wants a future together. It's easier to have a relationship and develop things with that kind of person than someone who could leave at any second when things aren't perfect.
