wow! when you said long distance i thought you meant different countries, but being a couple of hours away shouldnt make any difference if you love each other , i had a very long distance relationship a few years ago , i was in notts and she was in north carolina usa and we managed to last over a year and a half and we didnt split up because of the distance ..........

we took it in turns to travel to see each other which worked quite well.......if you have a car then you should be able to vist often but if not you could get a national express which are quite cheap ....
