As long as is practical. If it is "cyclical thing" (based on job fluctuations/location changes/ time of the year), I would try to work out at least a year's worth of comings and goings, if the timing/locations are known factors. More planning = less surprises later on down the line.
I’ve never been in a long distance relationship. But relationships, friends, family, or other his start off with communication right down the things you want and making sure you communicate those things having accessibility. How often do you want to see that person? I’m pretty sure financially, there should be a budget that both of you should come up with on spending time together honesty being respectful making sure you know all the facts
I don't believe in LDR, yet I do believe in people daydreaming wishlists and qualities and plans for future relationships, I for one have enjoyed a pleasant daydream for years. I'm always improving on it. After all, what's a single, now 30s man to do, yet enjoy dreaming. Clouds ☁️☁️🌨️🌨️☁️
I wouldn't really listen to the naysayers. Yes it's hard to make them work but it's possible if you both love each other. I think waiting four months is good. It really depends on circumstances but four months is enough time.
Not to break anyone's heart, but I don't believe in LDRs. Only exception would be if two of you are married and one of you had to move to a distance temporarily. It can be a pain if you don't get to hold hands, kiss, or hug each other. Trust issues are very likely to arise after some time too.
I think a lot depends on how far apart you are from each other, how long you want to meet up for and working around job schedules. I also guess it depends on how horny each of you are!
I try not do that but I don’t know what the future holds. They seem too complicated… not for me. I can’t even date a guy down the road for me so I don't know
1 yr. Will one be able to move within a yr. Yes. Then get marry… otherwise wasteing time. I was in LD with my now hubby… was not easy but we committed and am married.
I’ve never met anyone from an LDR. The one that came closest was two states away from me. I would’ve planned months ahead because that’s just the way I am. I need a lot of time to prepare for things, financially, mentally, and physically.
I would wait to plan anything until I actually had the time and money to go. Then I would just talk with my partner and we’d figure out a time that’d work best for both of us.

The one time I planned ahead in an LTR I wasted $500 on a plane ticket that the girl didn't use because she decided she didn't like me anymore.
Plan ahead all you want but don't spend money ahead of time because LTRs don't work.

Don't plan the relationship like that, only plan to meet.
I will say, I'm pretty skeptical of any relationship that goes on for longer than 6 months without meeting's chances.

I got the letters mixed up for a moment and thought you were talking about the Docklands Light Railway...
Really though... long distance relationships all fail sooner or later. Plan on finding someone else.

my wife and I met on GAG and planned maybe a month in advance. we were 9hrs drive apart.
good luck, no shortage of exceitment.
It depends on how much you miss each other and want to see them and get hugged by them.
I couldn't wait longer than two months or maybe sooner.
I only plan til the next trip. Beyond that, too many variables.
It all depends I suppose. I would think at least a few months out?
A few months I would say to get in the right mental
I'd plan ahead in a 30 km radius.
(for the mathematically handicapped persons: this makes roughly 20 ''miles'')
me? for long Distance 1 hour, plan that i will break up because far can't work.
