It is expensive, so if you see someone now and then, it's always a honeymoon. That sure is fun but not a basis for a lifetime of real life, and the investment involved with uprooting or having someone come into your home that you truly have only seen a handful of times. IMO.

i know it happens, the ones who beat the odds and it works. But i feel it's very uncommon

I don't think this is exclusive to LDR's. I have made the mistake of jumping in too soon and not truly knowing the person. It was a local relationship..no internet, no skype. It was the most horrible relationship of my life. This person looked into my eyes and lied again and again. It took a few years to truly see this person for who they were.
