I mean if it's love then they'll make it work. It'll be hard of course and they should live in one town/city/whatever as soon as possible. Otherwise just won't last if they don't focus on actually moving forward with their relationship.

you could always have a pen friend. That is all. I actually had one in middle school. Our class was encouraged to have a pen pal with a class in university that my teacher's sister taught. We stayed friends afterwards too and am still friends with her now. I finally met her when I was in university. Seen her a few times since then. I thought having that pen pal thing was cool since a made a nice friend

She's Philipino and her husband is Indian. But yes I agree with you.

Yeah they can, but that distance has to be temporary ultimately. Whether it’s for weeks or years, and the couples should still meet in person for periods of time in between the distance.

They can but you have to make sure to keep her interested, otherwise someone else will get her attention. Its important to meet up as much as possible.

Yes, but seeing her/him in real life is necessary because you can't keep a relationship via internet/phone forever.

No. It is impossible. Feelings can't be caged. The verb 'to feel' means to be able to touch it. Long distance it's just a testify of the feelings, nothing more. We can't lie to ourselves. Feelings without intimate level aren't real.

Like other people said, only if the distance is temporary.
I have been in one once before, but only accepted to become serious about it after plans were made to eventually meet up. As planned, we eventually moved in together and it was wonderful. The distance and time apart didn't stop a great relationship, but I believe it would have if it lasted too much longer or us finally being together wasn't consistent enough.
It is worth noting that her and I are no longer together, the sacrifice for one of us to leave our homes and lives behind was part of it but ultimately most factors were ones that could had happened to any 'regular' relationship.
I don't think I'd do it again personally, but from experience I can advise success is definitely possible.

Long Distance Relationships can work. My LDR did work, and now, we live together. There are so many factors make or break an LDR.
