What is the point of this page? It doesn't say anything that isn't obvious. dpen2000 22:21, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
This article could be strengthened with some statistical information of the chance of success of a long distance relationship. I assume many will visit this page seeking that sort of information before pursuing a long distance relationship.
Long distance relationships survive like all other relationships: communication and shared experience.
Hello fellow Wikipedians,

The topic of this stub has potential, but it needs to be written with neutrality toward the subject of long-distance relationships. The tone of this stub, as it is currently written, reads like a subtle self-help guide for people who may be doubtful of long-distance relationships. For example, instead of identifying communication as essential to keeping a long-distance relationship, it would be helpful to discuss how others have used communication in these circumstances and what the results were. Statistics on issues related to long-distance relationships would help provide a factual basis for the article also.
I’ll see what I can do to improve this article. In the meantime, perhaps other editors can also take these suggestions, make their own suggestions, and expand the article. -- backburner001 06:24, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
Yes, this is a good article, but the people that add information should do it from an unbiased veiwpoint.
I think the article looked much better about a day ago... I had added a link to my site www.waiit.com as it provides relevant, unique content that can support this article. To this could be added: gift ideas, reasons why people are in LDRs, statistics. Waiit.team ( talk) 14:28, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

The way the lead defines LDR's make it seem as say a couple in a committed relationship or marriage would be consider in an LDR even if just separated for a few weeks, such as say for a business trip. But a common feature of the definitions I have seen on the internet of an LDR i have read, that it's based on where each partner "lives" and thus would exclude say someone who is separated from their partner/spouse for weeks or a months for business/work but who otherwise normally lives with them. Also, the term LDR is mostly applied to unmarried couples' relationships. We should better cover the different definitions of an LDR out there and exclude shorter term separations such as for business/work unless reliable sources include those. -- Notcharliechaplin ( talk) 00:38, 25 December 2019 (UTC)
