What is this ?
Let's remember something here oki. When it comes down to it, the raw element of a relationship is that it's a mutually selfish endeavor. As soon as one persons selfish wishes start being unsatisfied things go downhill, and it can happen quite fast. I don't know the circumstances of this long distance deal but the thing to consider is, are both of your wishes being satisfied enough for the relationship to continue. I would make the assumption of no, not assume that it would change at some time in the future based on speculation, and look for something more immediately tangible with less trouble locally.

Any relationship that is based on being an "mutually selfish endeavor," is not a *real* relationship and is doomed to failure, sooner or later, in my humble opinion anyway.

If you approach romance in such ways, the romance won't be there for long.

It's more about enriching each other, often at the expense of yourself and your own immediate "wants."

Sacrifice = Love.

This all becomes exponentially more difficult when you add long-distance into the mix.

EDIT: Age is a serious factor. You cannot expect a nineteen year old girl to be faithful (apart from the rarest of the rare, and the same goes for the boys), and you especially cannot expect fidelity when you place an ocean between the two teenagers. It's just never going to work.

A serious relationship, the one that matters and, hopefully, the last one, should probably start around age twenty-five, after college. This is about when most people have matured to the point that they are capable of having a mature, lasting, mutually beneficial relationship, based on real things like actual "love," and not simply: "she's so hot, graaaaaw. /drool" <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f642.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":)">:)</object>

***You "sacrifice" because it makes you feel good. It's a mutually selfish endeavor no matter how you aproach it.*** <---

Anyway, now for what I relogged to say:

My parents divorced when I was 10, and they have both admitted to me that the reason their marriage fell apart was simply because each of them cared more about themselves, than they did about each other.

Selfishness is the DEATH of love, and anyone who tells you otherwise doesn't know his ass from his elbow. (<'')

EDIT #2: To address the bit of poop someone inserted into my post: No, incorrect and terribly wrong, sir! Sacrifice only "feels good" to a select few beings (most people simply never evolve to the point that sacrifice does in fact feel good), and one does not sacrifice simply because it "feels good," that negates the very nature of the sacrifice, itself. Selfishness negates, destroys, and otherwise corrupts true sacrifice.

One genuinely sacrifices because one loves -- because the other person is more important and valuable to me than I am to myself... and that's all you need to know. <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f61b.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":p">:p</object>

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_General_Theory_of_Love <-- a very good book.
I love your view on relationships, but eventually you'll realize it's all bullshit. Maybe after the second divorce after being cheated on, who knows. Everyone else i've told this general statement has agreed with me eventually.

Oh and sorry about editing your post, it was supposed to be a quote. <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f642.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":)">:)</object>
I hate it when you tell woman there preety and they just deny it
Oki, I'd turn gay for you!
