I know ton of people who had successful long distance relationships. My daughter is currently in one and it seems to go well although too early to tell. I know people who met long distance and marry and have families.

But both or at least one have to be employed and independent, able to buy tickets to fly see each other, have their own place or be able to afford hotels. If both people live with parents and are not independent and aren’t even employed how can such relationship work?

I think it’s paramount that you two start working on becoming independent and self supporting if you want this relationship go somewhere. I’d make that a focus.
