AH...long distance relationships!

Well, my brother is Australian, and his wonderful wife is from Blackpool, England.The've been married for...oops, can't remember..5 years? And have 2 gorgeous kids. So, that long distance relationship seems to have worked out.

I met my girlfriend online and she moved from the other side of Australia to be with me (Australia is so big, it might as well have been another country!)
And, as may be gather from other posts, that relationship is shakey, so, I don't know how long it will last.

I guess it's just a matter of chance, really.
