For posters that are OLD Long distance
| Mon, 06-20-2005 - 5:44pm |
Since this seems to be a hot topic lately. I came across a site online that give support for people involved in Online Long Distance relationships. This entire site is basically dedicated to thriving couples that are in that kind of relationship or those just beginning one. I read some of the articles on the site that seem to be very insightful. Maybe we can direct the newer faces to that site? This is not an ad. The site is www.lovingyou.com. Check it out if you like :)

The Long-Distance board here at IV is also populated heavily by people in this type of relationship.

The Long Distance Relationships board here on ivillage is also a good place.
Here is the blurb from their main page:
Are you in a relationship with someone who lives in another state or country? Discuss the art of creating a long-distance relationship with hosts cl-melsdream, cl-after_leptirica, and other iVillagers! For more information on our board and members, we invite you to visit our board website or email the community leaders!
Here is the link to that board:

Quite a bit, as one of the CLs is now married to a guy she met online and didn't meet for quite some time (can't remember exactly how long but it was a significant amount of time).

I used to lurk there ages ago (just out of curiosity). I know that back then there were a lot of posters in online rel'nships where they had yet to meet their SO. But just to be sure that the community hadn't changed I visited the Long Distance Relationships board and posted the following message:
http://messageboards.ivillage.com/n/mb/message.asp?webtag=iv-rllongdistan&msg=18160.1
Based on the two responses I've received so far it seems that people in online relationships will feel quite at home there. In fact, the CL who responded to my post commented that she went to that board after feeling that she didn't quite fit in on this one. (No offence to this board, lol. She said that the people here were great).
