LolaG: Skype Sex. If you are 100% confident in your relationship and have nothing to hide, masturbating on Skype together is one of the best things I have ever done with the love of my life. You can keep yourself in different angles so if you are shy he doesn't have to see anything, but I promise if he really loves you he will be beyond thrilled by your temple especially if he hasn't seen it in a month :s
Diamond: I'm glad this was posted !
Anonymous: Great article, i really like the movie idea! :)
Stephanie: I live in Australia and I met someone from America. I've never tried a LDR and we would really like for it to work. We have already said we would fly over to see each other. Is it possible?
maria: this is cool but my man is in the army, sadly not all of these are doable for us because of his duties, deployments..ect..college I'm sure is hard but try a years deployment with your love in Afghanistan..theres no text, mail takes 3 weeks, he has no privacy for phone sex..the stress is insane..
tracy: I dated my boyfriend for 7 months while in the same town before he left out of the country on a job promotion, he makes alot of money. My now long distance boyfriend hates Skype and refuses to get an acocunt, so I took it as if he does not want to see me, but he always asks for pictures of me???? Then he said he was not ready to be in a serious relationship with anyone because of his new job promotion he is super busy flying around the world but he still wants to email and keep in touch with me. Then he said he will come see me. Mixed signals or what??? And he sends me pictures of himself and his private parts plus him traveling around the world. So I classify it as a long distance casual dating situation. He says its hard for him to keep up a serious relationship long distance and it's not me, its his life now. In the olden days people just wrote letters and were apart for years without seeing one another. No skype, etc. And they married eventually.
