It is good that there is a motivational factor for you to learn TV. But as what TS always suggested...make sure your galfriend also pick up our langauge.
My gf is trying to learn Mandarin and English though I asked her to first concentrate on Mandarin. Reason is I'm planning to bring her over here for a visit to meet my parents who can't speak English. I hope they can communicate to understand each other better esp when I'm away for work.

I do agree that long-dist relationship is difficult; having to maintain the trust as well as not being 'distracted' are some of the issues we will face. Having to keep in contact via phone is not cheap too. Having to work and thus only able to visit her once a couple of months, it is a drain financially, physically and mentally.
