Ged74 Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 Hi, My XGF went on holiday in December and met a guy whilst she was there. They were only together for 14 days but by all accounts got on like a house on fire. He lives over 1000 miles away and is quite rich. She is 18 and he is 21. He was supposed to fly up and see her last week but he didn't book the flight in time. He had plenty of notice to do so, and I can't understand why he didn't book the flight. She is now looking at any means possible to go and see him but it is so expensive and she can't afford it. He hasn't offered to come and see her again, considering he is the one with all the wealth! I haven't and won't say anything to her but I really don't think he is as keen as she is. I have never spoken to him and she hasn't mentioned any of the conversations they have had, but from the things she has told me it looks like she is being taken for a ride. I have only recently started talking to her after our break up, I still love her and I do want her back. I won't be getting involved in it anyway as it is not my place to, but I am curious to know if a LDR that is less than a month old, where they have only seen each other for 14 days will last, because I hope to reconcile with her Link to post Share on other sites
marky25 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Hi , ive never been in this sitauation really,ive had LDR which involve flights overseas but ill i can offer is an outsiders opinion. does he really love her or is he just after a fling ? you say he is quite rich,does he respect things if he has more money than sense he may not know the value of feelings ? you say you are close to your ex, then tell her how you feel that you are worried about her being hurt because you still care about her, but this is a fine line and dont give any major indication that you want her back because she will see your concern as unjustified and think you are doing this for selfish reasons, if he really loved her that flight would have been booked but they may have been a valid reason, my best advice is to be a good friend to her and keep close and watch her back, if he is a fake she will soon realise he isnt worth the worry. hope this helps and good luck cheers Marky : ) Link to post Share on other sites
bluetuesday Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 no. based on the information you've given, this LDR doesn't have a cat in hell's chance of working. Link to post Share on other sites
Ged74 Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Your posts have filled me with hope. He is apparently coming to see her next weekend, I wonder if he'll actually make it. Personally I hope not! Thanks again, Ged. Link to post Share on other sites
