My girlfriend and I will be going to different colleges, in different parts of Ireland. Help please!
How do I make long distance relationships work?
@oscars94: Face time, webcam, trust her that she isn't doing anything wrong and the same goes for you. And occasionally make a surprise visit to her school to surprise her.
Ireland isn't that big, not to me at least. It should be easy enough to see each other, although I do think the work needed in college (study time, etc) is probably going to be the biggest obstacle. You two will learn to appreciate each other more the few times you can get together, so see it as a plus. (positive spin)
@lateralus: 2 hour train, money's an issue though.
Thanks very much for all of your helpful advice (except Thitiki, seriously you'll make me have an anxiety attack). I'll try my best to make this relationship work.
I dont believe in LDR's, although I don't trust women and I prefer hands on and not my hands on my jeeock
Webcam + Trust + Patience = Success.
But dude, the longer you're apart from her, the harder it'll get. Try to drive out to her and spend a weekend or two. Dedication bro!
Keep in touch with her, but give her space. For example, use web cam, but not too much, you know? Show her that you love her, and don't let her think the long distance relationship is affecting how much you mean to her.

I don't think that's good advice, long distance relationships relay on this above anything. If you lax communication, distrust builds.

Truth. But you forgot the most important aspect...Communication. :)

I was in a similar situation up until monday when my girlfriend broke up with me, but if she's worth it to you and vice versa then it will work.
@erik: LMFAO!
Would you like it if you were a woman in a long distance relationship and being in contact with your BF 6 hours a day if you have college?
Update: Everything has been going great! The 2 hour train journey really isn't that much of a problem. As I don't see her as often as I would like to, it makes my visits all the more better and we cherish our time together that much more.

Early stages are nothing. It'll get worse as time goes on.
It works or it doesn't.... If you two can't wait to see each other, it's working. If you are thinking how much it's a pain the ass to go see her, it's not......
