Before I started using forums, I did not gave much thought to time differences either - to be more precise only when I started communicating with the girl who would become my girlfriend I started to realize that it affects our lifes.
And I can tell you that I have spent quite a few nights staying up late as a result. She was in the US, but luckily on the East Coast, so it was only 6 hours of time difference with which we had to deal. Mostly I had to deal.

Now that she is in South Africa, which is even further away from me, time difference is only existent in the winter, and it is just a single hour. And nothing more.
Of course that is still far from ideal. But a lot easier to manage for the both of us.
