Question:
im not shure how many of you have ever had a long distance relationship but i need some advice. This girl i have been talking to for about a year and a half is really starting to like me but she lives 2 hours away. I really like her to and the wierd part of this is she is my best friends cousin. I have only seen her in person once for like an hour at my friends cabin.
What should i do???
Answer:
Continue talking to her and being her friend, nothing is wrong with that. However, you do not want a long distance relationship. You have seen her once in your life. For an hour. You are not old enough to drive. Long distance relationships are incredibly difficult to make work. They take more work and commitment than a 15 year old should be putting into a relationship. It would be a bad idea for both of you. I think in the end you would just lose her as a friend, which you don't want to have happen. Stay her friend for now. If in a few years your lives cross paths, awesome.
Answer:
Just be friends....only seein someone once and only talking to her makes it hard to know who she really is and get to know her. Just be her friend. Besides, it's all you can really do right now!
Answer:
Give it a few years. Trust me, two hours will not seem like such a huge distance when you're 18 and (quite possibly) heading off to college far away from your home.
Answer:
yup. this is truth.
Distance relationships are possible (my boyfriend lives an hour away from me) but they gotta start with a good friendship. I think every relationship does actually. My two cents...
Answer:
Also, talking on the internet can sometimes be a very difficult way of getting to know who someone really is. For all everyone here (besides Dana my wife) knows, I could be a huge musclebound jock posing as a geek. ok enough of that nonsense. But it's very easy to be someone else when you can't see each other. Plus you said this girl is your best friend's cousin? I wouldn't suggest getting into a teenage dating relationship with someone like that. My best friend in high school was always paranoid that I was going to even like his cousin. It's just too much stress on your friendship.
so I guess I too am throwing in my vote for just be friends for now at least.
