    Has anyone ever had experience with a long distance relationship? Do they usually work?

    I had issues with my boyfriend leaving to go overseas, but that's what he really wanted to go do for a year. So I fully supported his decision and that's what it is..

    Well, I have a major trust issue because pretty much every guy who I have dated has lied and cheated on me. This guy knows exactly how I feel about it. For being so far away and so many hours time difference, we still chat, webcam and talk on the phone at least twice a day. He makes time for me and I do for him. He tells me every chance that he gets that he loves me and feels like I am the closest person to him - ever. I believe this and he is also my best friend as well as lover.. We both want to be together when this year is all said and done, but we are realists and understand the difficulties that come with a long distance relationship. I know sex is a big deal for him, not so much for me, but I know that he is going to struggle for the next ten months of being away from me.

    I know this sounds so low self-esteem to say but I would much rather him have sex with someone random or someone he doesn't care about than if he were to really connect, bond and fall in love with another woman while he's away.

    Well, recently, I have found him on a match making website "looking for a woman". Why would he do this if he constantly says that I am the one for him and he loves me? He knows how much I am concerned about "sleeping around" while he's gone but I don't understand why he would do this? Is it the desire to have a fling while overseas? Does he want to get a piece of ass with someone before he comes home to settle down? What would you do if you were me in this situation? I truely love him, but I just don't know what I am going to do.. I am trying to be rational about this. He did tell me that he has tendencies and wants us both to have fun. If I sleep with someone he would have to understand and try to forgive me. Is he just justifying his behavior before he strikes? Help!

    That was sarcasm. My point was that she seems to want to believe that created the profile because he 'wants ass'. She obviously won't be convinced otherwise. So, my question is, why did she post about it to begin with. It seems that she's already answered the question.
