My wife and I lived an hour and a half apart, when we first met. Distance can be tough, but its easy to get past, if you truly want to have a relationship with the other person. So, build something that distance can't tear down, or end it and find someone local. Really only two choices here.

Sometimes things just are meant to be even if people are able to work past the distance problem.

My sister lived in Knoxville for 2 years finishing her degree at UT while her husband lived in Daytona FL following a career move.

It's doable.

I think that's the point of the thread. He's trying to figure out if it's worth it and from what I read he's sort of already made the decision.
A lot of people on here are saying an hour and a half is nothing but I personally couldn't disagree more. Nothing about having to make a 2 hour round trip drive every day to date someone is convenient. I live in Knoxville and unless the girl was my soul mate I probably wouldn't date her if she lived in Sevierville, let alone further away.

Who said anything about seeing each other on a daily basis?

Another thought, in a world with smartphones, labtops/tablets, Webcams, Skype, etc. being apart (physically) is easier than ever.

But seriously, I use to have a slow and boring job sad to say! It's gotten much better and busier the last few years. Their making me really earn all the money they pay me now. Lulz

Ahh, women, you can't live with them, you can't live without them. I use to live about 300 miles away from my lady, but now we live together. Distance isn't an issue in many cases. It's aboot commitment.

Just venting… I’ve been dating a girl who is almost polar opposite from me. She a vegan, I’m a steak and potatoes kind of guy. She’s an agnostic and I’m a believer. I’ve got kids and she doesn’t.
She’s rich and successful and I’m struggling to pay bill after divorce and child support, but none of that mattered when we were together. We got along, better than anyone else I’ve dated. No arguments we had great conversations and our chemistry was great. The problem is distance. She’s just about an hour and a half away, it’s not like you can see each other nightly or even every other night.
We still care for each other and have expressed it but we’ve decided to walk away from one another.
All I can say is damn…

The bold is where trouble would arise in a longterm relationship.

Well I was considering entering into relationship with a lovely American girl but she is moving back to San Francisco soon and I think Britain-SF is a bit too long distance... :p So just casual fun it was! :p

Tell her you love her, tell her you need her, tell her everything would be ok if you could just see her. Things aren't always as they seem.

She got me to quit drinking, and for that I'm thankful. She almost pulled off pulling me through. She got me standing upright, even had me coming home at nights, but she never got me over you. She almost had where you have me, she almost did what you still do. She got me thinking straight again, but I don't think she understands.. she never got me over you.

The problem is distance? It sounds like the whole first 1 1/2 paragraphs were problems...
