Dyke in distress!?

There is this amazing girl in my life and i like her...omg. so much. she is amazing. hot, and funny, hilarious actually, caring, beautiful...everything...alrite? Problem is...of course she lives 2 hours away and is 4 years older than me. I dunno. We have been talking and well...having sex for a while now and she always said it would never really work if we dated. I agreed. But now she wants me to be her girlfriend. Do you think long distance can work?...If we are able to see eachother frequently? I dont know what to do. I dont know if shes pulling my leg, and trying to hurt me but i cant see her doing that for the life of me. Has anyone out there ever said it wouldnt work with someone and then changed their mind? What made you do/think that? Did you genuinely like the person? And, her ex (they broke up about 3-4 years ago) is also my ex (we broke up about 3 months ago) and she is very pissed about this. Should we avoid being together because of that dyke drama? Or just ignore it?

    Aww man....I think it could work, only if both of you are putting forth an effort...and age difference doesnt matter...believe me! But, if you think shes just trying to hurt you..just be friends like you are now......I have a ton of experience with dating women.....so if you ever need to talk to some one here i am! LOL

    This is just me, but I'd never go out with someone that had the same ex as me, nor have I ever gone out with ex's of friends, etc. Sometimes there is just too much you could end up knowing through someone else that is skewed by someone else's opinion....

    I don't think there's a problem with long distance relationships, if the distance is a temporary thing. If, however, it's on an ongoing basis, eventually one of you will get tired of the distance and you'll either have to decide who is going to move or let the relationship go...

    Two hours isn't THAT long of a distance. I've been with my girl for 2 years (it'll be 3 in March) and we live 3 hours apart. We talk all the time, see each other on weekends and make a special effort to see each other whenever the opportunity presents itself (vacations, holidays, whatever). PLUS... we're 4 years apart in age!

    When we met, I was 17 and she was 21. I kinda didn't tell her that, though... not at first. But later, when I did tell her the truth, she said that if she knew how old I was, she never would have started dating me... so now she's glad she didn't know!

    We're currently in the process of moving in together. She lives in NY and I live in NJ where we're pretty close to legalizing same-sex civil unions (still fighting to make it same sex marriage but that's a depate for a different question). When we had to choose where we'd live together as a couple, she said she wanted to live in NJ since, if we decided to get married, it seems a lot more likely to be legal there.

    So do they work? ABSOLUTELY! They might require some extra work and certainly more compromise.. but maybe that ultimately makes for a better relationship. :)

    I wish you all the luck in the world!

    My girlfriend and I have a 3 years age difference. I took a new job and moved 2 hours away from her. It's been a year now and we're still together. She is currently trying to find a job near me so we can live together again. We made it work, I think that if you both want it to work you will find a way. I am a little leery about the fact you both have the same ex though. That is kinda of odd.

    Oh honey, let me tell you, it can work!! My girlfriend of a year and a half is 6 years older than me and we lived 5 hours from one another for a year! We met while she was teaching at a summer camp at my college. We developed a sexual relationship and said that dating would never work out. Eventually we decided that we did want to be together. It is not easy but you can make it happen. You just have to decide if she is worth it. If she is, then do it!!! Her ex caused all kinds of hell for us but we made it through and now we are so strong. If you guys really care for each other then you have to give it a chance. 2 hours isn't that far!

    Gosh, that is a touchy one! I think nothing of the 2 yr. difference, but this stuff with the ex-...well it's a tough one. You could *try*, but I see some complications possible and other interactions which make the mind reel. Go for it if you are really ready to ride a wild ride. Bless you in your efforts. I hope you and all find happiness.

    It should work fine... 2 hours is not 2 states as long as you guys have cars; it's only an hour if you meet in the middle.
