Long Distance Relationships Plague Couples <i>In The Same City</i>

The New York Times posted an article today for anyone who's ever had to endure subway transfers to get to their beloved. They track the story of one couple, Peter Horan and Afton Vermeer, who must trek nearly an hour and a half to see each other in the same city (Horan lives in western Harlem, Vermeer in Sunset Park.) While this is not news to many couples in the city, the Times reports that it seems to be happening more and more, with a variety of repercussions.

Patrick Moberg is back in the press, with news of a break-up with his subway sweetheart Camille Hayton. Last November the two connected after a missed connection, and within weeks appeared on Good Morning America, got the Nicole Kidman stamp of approval, and shopped their story around Hollywood. Now Reuters reports via the Sunday Telegraph that the couple only lasted for just two months, placing their break-up sometime in January -- even though it was reported the two hit the end of the line in December. While Moberg has stuck to his "no more press" rule, Hayton (currently taking acting classes and working three jobs) broke her silence and explained: "I think the situation was so intense that it bonded us in a way that you could mistake, I guess, for being more romantic than it was. I don't know. But I wanted to give it a go so I didn't wonder what if, what if?" Maybe their Hollywood rom-com will have a happier ending.
