Just a question sitting on my mind:

I met a really nice and caring girl and well, you could say that we fell for each other. Nice thing, sure.

Problem is that we live 550 (!) km apart (equals roundabout 350 miles) and both can definitively not move in any short period of time, it would have to be a distance and weekend relationship :(

My question especially to the Army people who are often away for weeks and months:

Can this work ???? Any personal experience?
I´d hate to see this girl go... ;(

Dino go for it. If she cheats she was not worth it if you cheat than you prolly found somebady better or @ least I hope so. Just do not rush to failure.

If you are meant for each other, it will work. If not, it probably won't, but could if you both really tried hard at it. I'd say if you think you've fallen for her, you should pursue it. You only live once, so find the right person while you still have a chance to!

350 miles?? Give me a break! That's nothing!

Korea was 7,000. And that was for a year.

If you two stay in constant touch, i.e. phone, email, weekends, it could work. It sucks, but it could make your relationship stronger.

I just can tell you something about weekend relationships
(Erlangen <=> Coburg or earlier Dresden <=> Coburg, ok, nothing compared against that Korea thingie Daddy mentioned).
But, hell yes, they work :)

Sometimes distance makes things even more intense.
(Hopefully that doesn´t sound too elevated :lol: )

When I was married that marriage was good as long we stayed separated,
as soon we moved together (he quit his job and moved in with me)
it did not work no more.
(hint) 8)

The answer to that is a resounding no! Man walk away from that like the plague. Had you said you guys have been kicking it for a minute like a yr or more than I would say you've got a better survival rate like 60-75%. But the way you described that you are apart starting a relationship. Nah kid.............Wish you the best in either direction you chose to take it though. I mean that sincerly.

Rampage,
From what you explained is the same way my wife and I started out. We've been married for 16 years now. It's all how much you both are willing to make it work. Good Luck in your decision!

That is really a tough decision. I to have done the Korea 1 year from my loved ones. New marriage of about 6 months old and a 2 month old baby boy. Seperation is tough and will test your emotions and your wallet. We have been married for 11 years and still going strong. My wife has learned to live with 3 and 6 month seperations. The question you need to be asking yourself, "Is she willing to go through this seperation period also?" Honestly you have nothing to loose at this point, it is the beginning of something good or something bad. No one can make a decision for you.
Best of luck!

Hi Ya all!

Thnx for the input!

I´ll be picking her up on Sunday and we´ll spend the holidays together.

Let´s see how this works out.

Darn, i´m nervous like a teenager. Haven´t felt like this for a decade.

:oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops:

OMG, less than 24 hours. I gotta clean the house. Quickly. And wash dishes. And remove all the car parts from the driveway. Oh, and empty my trashcan.... :shock: :shock: :shock:
Have i really been living single for only 4 months ???? Amazing how fast you can junk up a whole house :)

Wish me luck, boys and girls!
