 Hey Carys, I'm totally in the same situation as you. Was friends with a guy until I moved away and then we got together and since we both work shift patterns we see each other at most once a month plus don't have uni holidays to fall back on. It's tough, I'm not going to lie to you, but if you love each other it's totally possible. We've beeb doing it for six months now in which time we've had two continuous weeks of hols together and the odd weekend here and there but we text and email through the day and make the most of every second when we're together. I know what it's like to be frustrated believe me, so message if you ever need someone to vent at.

We see each other every weekend and talk every day. We've been together a year now and the distance has stopped us arguing :)
Trust me, if you are good together the distance won't touch you. xx

Hi Carys!
I would just like to say if you REALLY like each other and want to stay in touch you will!!
I am currently in a long distance relationship with a guy whom I adore! - We also live a couple of hours away by train but believe me - even if he lived on the other side of the planet I would still make an effort to see him!!
If you want something bad enough - you will make it work - but you both have to work at it to keep it going! - Best of luck!
