It is about talking the above issues logically and proactively, laying down preunderstanding conditions to make the other party develop complete faith and security in the relationship.

It is having it as if it is not LDR mentally. That's the way the couple I know of managed. That's the approach one should follow.

Just take the points raised above by other posters on why it cant work, and let the couple talk at length about those points and come up with appropriate measures.

I can pm you something that glues the above if you want a moving testimony.
