have a long term relationship

I just finished a relationship that lasted close to five months.. thats not very long term though is it..
Maybe next year goal buddies!!!
How long would you say a long term relationship is minimum?

stop having pointless 1 week things lol

My last relationship lasted one year.
It was worth it even though the relationship failed.

It would be even better if it didn’t fail … but it was beyond my control (takes two people compromising to make things work… and partner didn’t know the meaning of the work compromise).

yes… its been tough… but if ever had the chance to never have met him… theres no way in hell i would! i love him!

I’ve only had two boyfriends and I’ve had both for at least a year…it’s worth it if you’re staying for the right reasons.

i have had it but it ended. now i am trying again but afraid i will pick wrong again. this time NO. i am going to select my perfvect mate. he will be professional. passionate.kind.caring.creative. a renissance man with a good heart.

I’m 19 (20 in November), and my current boyfriend is the only one I’ve ever had. (there were crushes before him, but he was the first one who ever amounted to anything relationship-wise) We will have been together one year on May 14, and honestly, I can see us being together for even longer. People say ‘don’t settle on the first guy you come to’ but in all honesty, I don’t feel like I’m settling at all. He’s incredibly smart (3.9 GPA as a chemistry/biology double major), sweet, funny, and I can’t think what else I’d go looking for.

hmm what to say, i wanna date for fun but i really wanna just settle down with someone working towards a goal for both of us.i dont want to enter any relationship unless both parties are willing to make a future out of current situation. hope that makes sense. everyone is like give it up in bed thats when the relationship starts in other words have to sleep with the guy first before we in a relation im like bullsh** i aint opening up my legs until weve been through the dating period and gotten to know one another.im old fashioned. Fucking is fun but i know at the end of it im hoping the guy suggests we date. so id rather date first long term then Fuck or in this situation make love. ha ha

:-D
Well, he’s been gone for 5 days and just today we began talking about going to Southeast Asia together in March / April.

So I guess this is a long term relationship, he he!

We could each take about a month off work for this trip …buuuuut… we have learned from past mistakes, so this time we’ll make it around a 2 week trip (that was his idea, even!).

I decided on Thailand, Malaysia and maybe Indonesia (not sure if we’ll have that much time. He expressed interest in Singapore once before too. The only problem is – he mentioned once that he doesn’t like hot places and he gets really grumpy when he’s too hot! Now he’s saying, Oh it’s not a big deal, it will be fine. Hmmmm….

He’s from Vancouver. Sometimes the temperature gets pretty high there in summer – 27 or 28, but it’s never humid. I think he’s seriously underestimating the impact of humidity, cause if there’s one place that I know is humid, its Southeast Asia!!!

This may not be such a great idea after all. Well, we can always go somewhere else – maybe China/Mongolia/Russia.

Oh yeah – he had a friend staying at his place while he was gone, and she hadn’t gotten her stuff fully out when he returned home. So he actually told me “OK, I’m starting to see how annoying it can be to have someone in your space all the time”. Awww…

I got him on the plane. After a few stops and starts, the 5 days in Tokyo went fairly well, considering. New Years was fun, we spent almost all our money (the money we had taken out for the trip), but we didn’t run out. Good thing, too ‘cause the banks are closed until tomorrow! :-/

However, I am very happy to have endless time to myself at the moment.

Am I going to start to miss him soon? I wonder… Maybe I won’t. Hmm. Too soon to tell.

Anyway – one thing I do know – I never again want to spend such a long stretch of time with anyone similarly dependent on me. I’m just not good at dealing with that kind of stress.
