Relationships: would you prefer hometown, or long-distant relationships???
For me i think hometown relationships are better than the other, cuz you wouldnt have to go very far to hang out with your bf/gf! so...what 'bout you guys??

Well, if you loved the person enough, distance would never be an issue.
I've been in a long-distance relationship with Kurtis (Yoshiken) for the last year and three months and still goin' strong. We love each other even more than many people who are in a "hometown" relationship. We used to be able to visit each other every month before he moved to Arizona, but we still talk to each other on the phone or on AIM every single day and get gifts for each other on special occasions. I'd wait forever to see him again (but I will be able to see him later this month and also for Christmas), and I know he'd do the same.
I'm not saying long-distance relationships totally own hometown relationships. I'm just saying that long-distance relationships definitely can work out, too.

I'm in a long distance relationship with someone, and well, we can just say that -- "parting makes the heat grow fonder" -- so it's really great when you get to meet again, heh. :3

I've tried both and overall I prefer hometown. The odds of me actually meeting my online boyfriend are very slim because they've always been American, and I can't afford to travel that far to see them.
I think online relationships are nice (and saved me from getting into trouble at a younger age), but I prefer someone I can hang out with regularly and see every few days. For me personally, online relationships don't work at all, but I know quite a few people who met online and eventually married or plan on getting married. ;D

I have a few friends. Two live in Germany and I haven't seen them in almost 3-5 yrs.
Another friend lives in Florida. Haven't seen her in 2 yrs.
Anyway: Long Distance Relationships.

Personally, I prefure both. I mean, long distance relationships are fun, but can be frustrating. Although they have helped me, I'm nowhere near as shy to call someone now than I used to be, of course I still am pretty shy, but I have been able to get myself to call Teh, Graedius, and Contention, so it's beneficial in some ways when you look at it. But as far as a GF, (or BF for girls), I would say hometown is best, online would be near impossible, at least in my opinion. |

Whether I lived near him or far from him, he knows he'll always love me. |

The actual question is which would you prefer.
Personally, I think its a little bit silly to prefer a long distance relationship to one where you can actually talk face to face, hold etc.
By which I mean if its the exact same person. If you'd prefer that person to be on the other side of the world rather than that same person with you at that moment, then frankly I think somethings wrong there.
If you don't intend to meet up and eventually spend the rest of your life with said person, I just think that's a needless strain and waste.

To be most and utterly honest on the matter, in my own humble opinion, and this may seem odd to most, but I would probably say neither.
Over the past year, I must say, it was quite a heated subject I kept to myself, or only told a few people for a while. I was yearning for a relationship, it was sort of paining me to see that I was at the age of 20 and I had never even experienced anything at all, whether it was someone having some interest in me, or even me having some interest towards someone else. Many, many times I'd see my friends or other acquaintances fall in love with someone else, even if it was "puppy love" as they call it. I'm ashamed to admit it, but it was sorta painful to see, I was happy for them, but kept coming back on the fact that I was alone. Sure, some could speculate that I never really went out and tried, but how can one try when they don't even feel something more than just friendship? Don't get me wrong, I had plenty of friends that were girls, got along with them just fine, but there was nothing more to it.
In the recent past, things happened, stuff changed, events unfolded, and I think I'd much rather stay alone. My stance on the subject changed from yearning so much to near being alienated by it. I'm not saying it'll never happen, I'm just saying that I'm in no particular rush anymore to find "someone".
Whatever happpens in life will happen, and well, like I said, I'd prefer neither Long-Distance Relationships nor Hometown relationships as of now.

^ That's me perfectly descripted, except I'm still sort of worried. I'm 16, still a virgin (with no interest in changing anytime soon thank God), but I've never had a girlfriend, and luckily no boyfriends, since I don't want to end up that way since I'm an only child. (Therefore if I become that way, my parents' legacies die, but that's off the point.) Still though, I've never had that "puppy love", never had a crush, never been a crush, and yeah. I have lots of friends who are girls, but that's about it, nothing serious at all. Heh, YW I can completely relate, you're not the only one. ^^
