If you want a long distance relationship, get a girl on the side that's close distance. Trust me, the long dist girl will be doing guys in the bar bathroom while telling you how much she loves you from 500+miles away. Just think of it as someone who occassionally might drop in to visit for a quickie. Don't put your heart into it.

They are very difficult, especially at your age. I had a long distance at 20, and it was rough. The things to take into consideration is as follows:
1. Will you be able to afford seeing her every month?
2. Will you be able to trust each other (if this is a no, a maybe, or you are a very jealous individual, let it go for now...the dark thoughts that will run through your mind will just make you miserable and angry)
3. Is she worth the agony? (Understand that when you care for someone deeply, being apart from them is an emotional load. Aside from the intimate aspects of a relationship, you will find yourself hating couples around you for the simple reason that they can actually hug or hold hands)
If, after some thoughts to these factors, you came up with three yeses, then by all means go for it. My long distance relationship laster for 2 years, and to this day, I have become pretty good friends with her. Whichever way you go with this, don't look back. Don't live with regrets and what ifs, just live knowing you did the best you could.

At your age I would say that a LDR is a bad idea. You've got plenty of time to find someone else and women your age can not be trusted.
I did have a LDR that worked, my now husband and I were long distance (Minneapolis to West Palm Beach) for several months, but it was not easy.
