I don't think she has what it takes to be in a LDR. Some people don't. It was only two weeks and she cheated, maybe if you both lived in the same area it would be worth giving it a shot, but truthfully I cannot see this working out long distance.

I agree with Wise, I'd let her go and wish her well.
Someone who can't even stay faithful for two weeks isn't REALLY looking for a serious relationship. I think you are wasting your time on her.

You don't really trust her, or you wouldn't have written a post about it.
She's not really that interested in an LDR and just isn't being straightforward about it. Especially, if you're making her feel guilty about cheating. There are passive-aggressive ways to subtly rub someone's nose in their mistakes; and convince yourself it's their fault. Pretending to be noble and offering your forgiveness. She really doesn't believe it's that simple. She's wise not to.
Wait until your professional situation allows you to settle-down in one place; and start a relationship you don't have to leave behind waiting for you.
Not everyone can survive on visits now and then, and call it a romantic relationship.

You won't know what she's thinking until you've asked. Make a date, say you've got things to say, and questions to ask. You need to know where you stand. Honest and open communication is the only way forward. Good luck.
