So I am trying to figure out what exactly is going on with the people around my age specially.
I was talking to few friends of mine from few years back and all 4 of them have “girlfriends” who they are planning to marry soon, met online.
They 3 of them never met their love of lives yet and one flew all the way to England to meet his honay wali.
How exactly do these 5,000 miles away relationships work?
How do you know the person on the other side is telling you truth?
Anyone who met someone like that and married? (I am not talking about locals. Say you live in Chicago and your soulmate lives in Pakistan or Iran)
i don’t know! .. its kinda risky and hav 80% chances the other person is lying .. or mayb if they r sincere… when they actually meet they don’t like the way the person behaves.. for example… they don’t like the way the person walks?? some problem in right foot, or the way they chew on food, or mayb the way they deal with other people… i rather meet the person myself before building these emotions for them… even if its for 10 mins… atleast i kno he is the same person he says he is
** How exactly do these 5,000 miles away relationships work?
*Like other relationships work...but with MUCH MORE EFFORT.

*Well sometimes in life, u don't even know if the ppl surrounding u r telling u the truth. U just have to take a risk, a chance, and trust that person...if the connection is there it will progress.

Yes, we knew a guy from the States who hooked up with a girl from India...but most go for partners not so far, like at least in the same country.

Please put some roshani on this subject.
I've been in a long distance relationship (1,700 miles) for about 3 yrs now...it's really tough sometimes, but we've obviously passed the tests of time and distance. How far u r from one another doesn't really matter in the end, it's just how much u care and love them. Of course many times it doesn't work too, we know some ppl who tried it but they didn't last more than a few weeks or months. In the past i was in a relationship that was long distance also, but in that case i had never met the guy in person and it was basically a phone relationship...it was really nice while it lasted, he was a great person...many factors led me to end it with him, but we've remained good friends since then. But i wud tell u, only first hand experience will give the "light" or answers ur looking for....cos every person will have a different story :)
i have a friend from korea who married her online boyfriend from Norway, they overcame not only the distance but also the girl family as korean tend to look down upon whites, and did nt want her to go and live so far away…but they’re happily married !
Excellent post Kashmiriraindrops:k:
CB: long term relationships are really hard, but i know a few ppl who have been in LTR and now happily married.. it all depends..
ever thought about why sometimes (actually nowadays, most of the times) just even a 5min drive away relationships (or relationships in your own Family) fails to work?
physical distance between the two doesn't really matter... what mattes is How close your Hearts are and How far you can stretch yourself to make it (your relationships) work.
what internet +webcam+mic, you you have the voice and the image live:D
:k: when you’re in distance relationship you’ll be push to work harder on it cause of the distance, and it may work better in the end…many more couplesi know were formed in distance relationship, at leats 100miles, than neibghors…cause people in same place tend to be more “lazy” on the relationship…maybe it is less exotic too
Thank you but no thank you, first of all, I do not believe this type of relationships (guy meets girl, girl meets boy, they become boyfriend/girlfriend)
Other than that, I really think it's very important to actually able to see what is happening to your soul-mate/lover.
Like I was asking my friend, who talks to his girlfriend online and on the phone almost everyday... What if he can't get a hold of her for a week? I mean no online, no phone calls, what will he do?
He said, he'll try to contact one of her friends. I asked what if he can't get a hold of her friend either then what?
He goes "I don't know..." with some crap like "I'll try my best to fly to Pakistan ASAP" and whatnot.
So I asked him "What if, when you get there, you findout she had an accident and died 10 days ago?"
And he really didn't have an answer.
It's good to see most of you guys have managed to keep such relationship, but it is hard.
