I met my G/F (now wife) while working near Boston one summer. She lived in Boston and I lived in the San Francisco area. We dated long distance 3 years seeing each other for two months over the summer when I would return to my "summer job" and usually one other week a year when she would come visit. We burned up the phone lines the rest of the time. We have now been married 13 years and are about to start another long distance relationship. I have a job opportunity in Kansas City and would be commuting for at least the first 6 months until we decide whether to move or not. I'll only be home on the coast every other weekend. Even though life is much more complicated then the first time we did it, we're confident we can make it work.
