Long distance relationships change both people for the worse. Ik it is cliche but the phrase "there are plenty of fish in the sea" could not be more true. you should treat your move as a fresh start and just enjoy being free in a new city

I've known people who were dating for a long time who couldn't survive long distance and those who barely started dating who were able to survive overseas long distance dating for a year or two. It really comes down to the individual relationship IMO. You know it better than any stranger on the Internet knows your relationship.

Why put yourself through that torture? If she is decent looking she will def be getting some strange within a few months of the move.

about a 5 hour drive


That's not too bad. Not even a flight to where you can see each other every two weeks. Did one long distance relationship, but we were literally 1500 miles apart. That was a tough one to maintain.

Kinda feel foolish for starting this relationship. We both knew there was a chance that i could be moving about 3 months ago, but I didn't know how real that chance was or how soon it would come. When I met this girl, I had second thoughts about pursuing the relationship in case this happened, but i kinda said screw it, let's give it a shot and see what happens.

Was I wrong for letting this relationship continue for 4 months?

Yeah that's not going to work. Just being honest. I have done an hour drive before and even that was extremely difficult


An hour? It's feasible that you hang out 4 or 5 days a week with that. Get dinner during the week, stay at each other's places, and then leave for work an hour earlier than usual. If a relationship didn't work when you live an hours drive from someone, it didn't work for other reasons aside from it being long distance. I'd go so far as to say it had nothing to do with it.

An hour isn't a long distance relationship. There are people who live in the same city that have an hour commute to see their SO. Hell once you get married, just move to the halfway point and you have a half hour commute to work. That's not bad at all, and if that ended your relationship, one of you is way, way over clingy to where they won't allow you to do anything without them

If you will always regret not seeing where the relationship went after you moved, see where it goes. If it turns out that you love this girl, I mean truly love her, you will do whatever it takes to be together.

Dude stop being a pussy and asking strange dudes on TD this shite. None of us know your relationship make a decision and move on. The comment about you being sure she won't cheat on you after 4 months is laughable though. I'm not sayin she will but 4 months is not enough time to know that for certain.

Main issues for me were being either too tired on a Friday to drive up, too busy on the weekends, or wanting to do hood rat shite with my friends in town. Main problem is if you've got any extra time at all and don't spend it with the chick, she's gonna resent you for it.
