yay!!
Long distance relationships depend on the people involved. I've done it and it was at first sucessful well for a while
but that was a whole different issue.
The things to remember with a LD relationship is to have some sort of plan of where you want to be in the future together, becuase otherwise it will just feel like it is dragging on and on and on. The other thing I would say is to make sure that theres no jeaousy if the other person goes out and stuff with their friends cos that don't work either.
Relationships from the net can work out, my brother married a gal he met on the net, he had this long Distance net thing going with her, having only met her once (she lived in sydney) and then he moved over to Sydney and they like dated for a bit longer, and then they got engaged, and just at the end of Jan did they get married. And i know some others too... but they have known each other for like 5 years now...
And for the final question... She likes sparkles cos they match her eyes...
Or I imagine thats what kall would say! :P
