out of curiosity, for the LDR couples: how long was the long-distance component? and was there a light at the end of the tunnel or not?

i do not pose the question to invalidate y'alls opinions at all. just in my experience/opinion, that is a *huge* component to the success rate of such situations.

Responses:

Just about a year of being ~2500 miles apart. (nm) - musubi Dec 23, 10:28 2
- Oh yeah, and like Diva said, it didn't really occur to me that it wasn't worth it. - musubi Dec 23, 10:30 1
  - It's this. (18 months, 10,000 miles) -- nm - Roger More Dec 23, 10:41
with my exwife, we had an ldr with 3.5hour (drive) for a year and a half. -- nm - tRuMaN Dec 23, 10:17
A year and a half or so. The light at the end of the tunnel was discussed then approached as the relationship grew. - Diva Dec 23, 10:16
As I said, 90 minutes. And after our history, the odds did not seem like we would work it out. - Spawn Dec 23, 10:15 5
- i meant the other long. how long y'all was separated by the distance. -- nm - TFox Dec 23, 10:16 4
  - Not quite a year, I think. -- nm - Spawn Dec 23, 10:17 3
    - And the idea of me moving away was unheard of (grew up/own a business here). - Spawn Dec 23, 10:19 2
      - you moved away for Amy? (sigh) ... that's so romantic ... -- nm - JenBro Dec 23, 10:41
      - smartest thing you ever did, dummy -- nm - pixmas Dec 23, 10:21
4 months total, 2 hours away, 2.5 weeks of it left to endure. -- nm - znufrii Dec 23, 10:14
Like 8 hours. There wouldn't have been a light at the end if she hadn't found a job here. - David Dec 23, 10:13 3
- Parole officer jurisdiction? -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 23, 10:13
- I don't mean in drive time. I mean in months/years. -- nm - TFox Dec 23, 10:13 1
  - That's not particularly easy to answer in our case. I guess six months would be about right. - David Dec 23, 10:17
13 months....we got serious about solving our LDR about 9 months in. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 23, 10:12 1
- And then there's been the past 6months of business travel. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 23, 10:29
