If you're trying to argue that ldrs fall apart frequently, consider that most in-person relationships also fall apart pretty quickly. How well a relationship works is based on each person's personality type and their compatibility with the person they're with, which can take anywhere from a few weeks to many years to find out if they're actually compatible. Saying that you shouldn't get into an ldr just because they tend to fall apart is pretty silly, most relationships fall apart.

FTFY

Next time you feel the need to drop anecdotal reasons on why somebody should drop their partner like dead weight, try to articulate yourself better next time js

also obligatory phanto-esque edit

You keep saying this, but it's not being any more true. You're full of stuff 99.9% of the time, care to write a four paragraph essay on why this time is different, smart and wise one?

The point is, hard-line advice on "How it is" just doesn't work with relationship advice considering it's a case-by-case issue. Path pretending he's in on the know-how when it comes to long distance relationships only works as a stand up skit at best and is completely useless to OP when it comes to actual legitimate advice.

typically real-life relationships are more defined, because you personally know your partner, you know their flaws and their attractive aspects. if you get into a sticky relationship, it'll end fast, but if you find the perfect person, it'll last a really long time and be fulfilling.

in an ldr, the lines between those two are entirely blurred. unless you already knew the partner and everything about them prior to the ldr, you'll really idealize them. so you can really be in a long distance relationship with a stuffty person and not know it until you meet them irl. as i said, its a crapshoot, and a lot of teens tend to idolize LDRs to stuff until they realize how hit and miss it can be

it really depends on who you are. if you like ldr, then that's fine, but the chances of it forming a real fruitful relationship are very very very slim. some people just like love, some like the money, it's all preference. either way, you can quantify the differences between stronger and weaker relationships. for example, liking someone only for their money is obviously a less real relationship that liking someone for who they are, their loveual experience, and their financial situation. liking someone through ldr is objectively less real that liking some in real life, unless that real life relationship is friends with benefits or sugar daddy/mommy
