lol your funny. a long time ago has to be at least ten years i dated someone from there. long story how we met. yet i'd travel to see him on my free weekends, take plane up and than drive rest of way. it was hard though, than he came up two times. it was a great reprieve for me at the time.
yet i could'nt hack the distance anymore, time, expense. good for you guys. whatever works. yea i know what you mean dating someone and living with them are such different worlds lol.
