I had a similar with the start of a relationship I had with a very dedicated grad student. We would make plans, but either he cancelled b/c research got in the way or I cancelled because I had an exam I needed to focus on. We only saw each other once in a while when passing. soon we just started getting work done together, even though it was silent the whole time, it worked out good for a little bit.

The truth is, if both of you REALLY want it to work out, you can make it work- because it does take a TON of effort, and even if you just see each other for a few minutes, it can be good.
