60 miles,!!! I had a girlfriend who put the phone down on me once, (she was like that and she was soon my ex) anyway, I borrowed a car and drove over three hundred miles and banged on her door at midnight just to finish the rest of the conversation, she asked me in but I got back in the car and drove home, she never put the phone down on me again.
Pull your finger out and stop making excuses.

Love shouldn't hurt this much. If you two are now getting depressed everytime you speak instead of being happy with one another ..maybe you two should think about ending it. Love should be filled with happiness, warmth, excitement.... Don't make yourselves miserable.

Well, why on earth havent you seen her in a year? 60 miles?! you could walk that if you really felt that way.
Well there must be something going on here, something that is stopping you from seeing each other. money? family? you can get past all of these. a realtionship isnt a relationship unless you see each other, even occasionally. I beg you to see her, to meet up. Can you honestly keep doing this for the rest of your life?
Please do yourself a favour and meet up! It will do you the world of good and make you happier beyond belief!
Good luck

Just get on the internet and have a look. You could always arrange to meet half way, that's what I used to do.

60 miles? I wish I'd only had 60 miles between my ex in my last relationship. We had 300 miles between us. I managed to get to see her every month. One month, I got there every weekend. 60 miles is nothing.
Out of curiosity, where are you both from? Coaches are pretty cheap. You can't let 60 miles interfere like this. I would have ran the 60 miles to be with my ex.

You are an adult, you are capable of getting a job to have enough money to pay for a train / car / bus / coach. You also have days off to visit each other.
If you have not managed to see each other in a year then you clearly don't have much feelings for each other, how you can still be going out is beyond my understanding really. No people who love each other would put themselves through that.
I remember being 19 in a long distance relationship and i scrimped and saved every bit of money I could so I could afford the (250 miles) £50 train journey.
Stop waisting your time crying on your own, get some money together and go and visit her. That is what someone who loved someone would do, so stop being such a wingy complaining moaner!

I thought when I read this question I would be answering a young teenager, say fifteen with no sourse of income. BUT you are in the late twenties age group...so WHY THE HELL HAVE YOU NOT MANAGED TO GET TO SEE EACH OTHER!!
