Long distance relationships
Pud,
Is it possible for long-distance relationships to work? Or are they all just doomed to failure?
Brad
Brad,
Sure, you'll miss your girlfriend and won't get sex as often. But those drawbacks pale in comparison to the benefits of a long distance relationship.
Behold.
The single man. You're constantly under pressure to go out and meet girls. Every time the opportunity comes up to do something social, you know that if you don't participate, you're missing out on possible sex (or future-girlfriend/wife or whatever). Life is constant want.
The in-a-relationship man. Every night is couples night. Saturday night? Couples night. Want to work late on Wednesday night? Can't, must entertain girlfriend. Sure you love her an all, but wouldn't it be nice to just do whatever you want to every now and then, without discussing it with her? Life is constrained.
The long-distance-relationship man. Want to stay in Saturday night, order a pizza and play Warcraft? Go for it! Work late? No sweat! There's no pressure to go out and meet girls, and you make the schedule. Everyone should try it, total freedom.
