Realistically could this work?

I know this sounds.. weird, but have you ever thought of asking your parents to drive you? Surely if they approve, they wouldn't mind. What about his parents? Realistically, a relationship like yours could work, but you have to be able to trust each other. Trust is crucial, and since you guys don't see each other very much, there's risks. You guys aren't hours apart, though, so there's that. Yes, your relationship could work. -Amanda

half an hour isn't so bad! Only a bus ride away :) If you really like each other than much, you can make it work x

We trust each other a lot. He knows more about me than most people I see daily. I don't know about his parents but I know it isn't very practical for my mom to drive me. When we do see each other it's a scheduled thing and its the same time every month (group therapy and sometimes we go and our horseback lessons overlap) so we don't have to worry about missing that time. Trust isn't an issue I just wouldn't want him to get bored with me because therapy and horseback lessons aren't exactly the place to show affection and act like we're in a relationship

Okay! I bet you're excited about getting your learner's permit next year. You guys sound like a solid couple. :)

I'm super excited. The thing is, we aren't actually a couple. Yet. I'm to scared of rejection and he's to shy to ask so we kinda just go in a loop. I'm trying to change it but I don't want to set myself up for something that will hurt me

I think this relationship can definitely work! You guys are only a short drive away and soon you'll both have driving privileges. On top of that, you talk a lot already so communication is not an issue. Trust me, i've seen relationships with further distances last, so this on definitely can :)

Thanks guys! I really want to make something more out of this friendship I just don't know how. I think after homecoming I'll ask him and I'll have had a fun night so I can start of with a positive mood and good feelings knowing this can work if we try.

No problem, and that is a great plan. ^_^ Plus, you'll be all dolled up for the dance and so you'll be irresistible!

Hahaha I'm a freshman but Look like I'm about 16. He thought I wouldn't like him for the longest time because he thought I was older than him. We're both just to damn shy so that's why there's no relationship, yet.

It's okay to go slow. That's so cute that he thought you were older than him!

We're going about as slow as you can get... Using his birthday as a excuse to get pizza then have our parents with us the whole time, went to a burger place and we sat at out own table but that was worse because all we could hear was our parents laughing at us from behind us. And I'm used to it, I get asked all the time at school if I'm a junior and why I'm not driving yet, its hilarious because I don't even do that much makeup or hair or clothes ether

I gues you're really looking forward to be ping able to drive, then. :p You guys will be able to see each other more often, and hopefully without laughing parents.Maybe it's your confidence! Or perhaps you're just so sophisticated people have to assume you're 16. :D

I'm not that confidant actually, mature yes. And being able to drive myself to see him will be awesome

Well, good for you! :D if you ever want to talk more, you can private message me by going to my profile. -Amanda

I live in the UK and my girlfriend lives in the US and we've never been happier. If you want to make it work then you can.

I'm his girlfriend and I second that ^

<3 you baby

<3 you tooBut yeah, NQUA, the point is; if you want to make it work, you can. It may be hard, trust me, we know. But hey, love is love. And sometimes love makes sacrifices. My sacrifice was not seeing him for at least a year from now. But we're taking that step and we're being happy while doing so. If we can do it, so can you. Good luck!

Ok thanks Amanda. Josh and chey I'm glad it's working out so well :)

My family is ruining everything with him... Right when I find the guy of my dreams they blow it for me.
