Well I'm in a LDR atm it's hard but you fget use to it, when you see each other it's more special (so I've heard) i've never met my gf in person but I know it'll be extra special when we do:)
Just hang in there luv,
that totally sucked. for her more than for me though since I was with new people in a new environment, etc. but for her everything stayed the same except for me not being there.
but in the end those 3 months went past quicker than we thought!
and now we're in a LDR again since last september when I went to uni. we see each other every 3-4 weeks in person and every couple of days via webcam. so like this it's no problem at all, especially because she's gonna come study here in july/august as well
we're not moving in together though (which is good imo).
I guess it depends on how the LDR is like, if it's a long time (half a year plus) without much contact at all it'll probably be hard to keep it up, but if you can phone & see each other frequently it can surely last quite long.
so in your case I think you should be doing fine if it's "just" a couple of months with phones & letters!
and make sure to excange lots of photos of your activites whilst in the LDR! helped me & my g/f during my time in the states!
best wishes!

[EDIT] and what I totally forgot about:
if it's not possible to talk to each other on the phone get yourselves a voice recorder (those things with the small tapes) and record a couple of minutes every day. then, when the tape's full mail it to your partner together with some photos and candy
[/EDIT]
it gets harder as the time passes but i no that he will always be there if i need him - online on the phone etc.. but just having him here with me the last week has been great just dont no wot im going to do when it hits me that he wont be there to hold me till i fall asleep tonight and for the next 9 days and to wake up alone :crying: :crying: :crying:
Thanx for the advice, it helps to get others views on it, cause my views are negative at times
x x x x thanks x x x x
i do understand
Aw... poor u, only 2hrs, how r u coping, u must be goin crazy!?
Where has he gone?

I really don't how i'll cope when he goes away, i start my degree at the same time he goes away, am so scared i mess everythin up! He'l be back most weekends after his basic training, but it's not the same!! I need hime here not miles away!!
even though only got to see her every 3 months or so, it was worth it for when i did get to see her. then ti all kinda turned a bit tits up cos of jealousy issues but as long as you can actually trust each other then i say it can work.
as for me, i think i'll stick to women on the same continent from now on for starters
