Long Distance Relationships

hi there, my boyfriend and i have been together for almost 8 years now... and it's a long distance relationship. i have actually written a discussion about this, you can check it out i admit it's pretty tough because i miss him all the time. he is in the states and comes home to me here every year and stays only for 3 weeks. distance doesn't exist just as long as you love each other very much. there should be constant communication and trust.

Hi thuglove1722! I'm in a long distance relationship also right now. My beau is around 40kms away from me. My advice for you is to keep in touch, ALWAYS, with your girl. We live in a world right now with cellphones, internet and technology. Texting is the easiest way. Talk to her ofter. Whenever you miss her, you can video call her. Find time to see each other say over the weekend. And whenever you see each other, make her feel loved. Bottomline is, there should be communication, all the time. Good luck!

to eb able to make a long distance relationship work, first you must take the risk. if you love her that much then take the risk and then have an open and often communication. with the advance technology now you will have no excuse of not to communicate frequently. also, trust and respest are very important. trust her and she needs to trust you back too. if the relationship is full of doubts then it will not go anywhere. also respecting each other is very important. i think the distance will not matter as long as you love each other and both of you are determined to make the relationship work. also, at one point, one of you should sacrifice and have a a decision of who will move close. that will come and you should be ready for it. i wish you goodluck and may God bless your relationship.

It is quite easy to connect with people anywhere these days. There are lots of things you can do to connect with each other.. You can email, call or chat- with skype you can easily see an call her..

Keep a long distance relationship is really hard. Even though you guy can chat many hours a day, but she/he lives so far and can't beside you when you really need her/his help. And sometime you will feel that it is really tired of it while you can get any help from someone who lives near you. With me, chatting every day is not enough to keep the relationship going on...I need actions that prove our love, not by talking only. Love is sharing, being together and help each other pass a hard time in our life... I am in a long distance relationship for 1 year and i am in an impasse currently because after many things happened to me, i was still alone even though i really really need my bf besides me at that time, then i want we get married then we can live together in one place, but my boyfriend asked me to take 2 years later. Two years are so long and very hard to keep the relationship, leaving far away from our love is not easy.... And till now we haven't had any compromise about that problem yet. Just do as what your heart want in love, and seriously think and care your love wants/wishes also...i think it is a key to keep a long distance relationship.

Based on what i hear from my other friends that involve in long distance relationship, they found out that its really hard to be in this kind of relationship but they said that all you need is trust from your partner and give trust to your patner and keep the communication work.

I do not think a long distance relationship can last long time. Communication is very important to keep a relationship. It includes the talks, the physical touch and the information and favor from the partner. While for a long distance relationship only talks can work, while the cost and the energy for talks with your partner are great. So in most case, you can not have as much talk as those closed with their partners. So it is really hard for a relationship goes well in that kind of conditions.

I ever had a long distance relation few years ago. We had it for about two years. And it didnt work cos he cheated on me. It was so hurt but experience taught us somethong, rite? I think I had done everything to maintain our relation but he was inerested to another girl. What can I say? I did love him actually but I couldt accept his cheating. If you ask me what tip we can use to maintain long distabce relation, I just say one thing: both of you should be loyal each other, can be trusted and be honest. Long distance relation has more challenges. It requires more trust and honesty cos we cant meet each other regularly. Maybe it's better for you to marry het soon cos by marrying her she will be more careful in making friends with other men. In other words, she could be more loyal if she has already been a wife. I hope you can be successful with your relation..:)

Trust, loyalty and communication will lead the way to a successful long distance relationship. If you trust each other not much for fear and doubt it will surely make things work. Loyalty will follow, if you love your partner you won't be able to do anything that could hurt her or to make your relationship in mess. Third, communication try to find ways how to secure her/his feelings that you care about her and no matter how the distance maybe you always thinking about her/him. Happy myLotting!

You can work it out no matter how far you are with each other if your love is true to one another. I have been in long distance relationship for more than 8 years now. We had broke up several times and I still vividly remember the last time we broke up that I thought we will not be together anymore. But after 2 or 3 months I guess, we came back to each other. We just realized that we're better off together. Faith in God or fate, that's our number 1 weapon. Second is trust with each other (no one's cheating). Third, the most important, is love. We really love each other that much. If you have faith, you don't have to worry about anything and we also live by the present, not by the past or the future.

long distance relationships can be a bore especially if it takes months before you see each other , however for it to work there most be constant communication

Being in a long distance relationship is quiet hard . But if you really love each other it's not really a big issue. You just have to trust and believe in each other.And be loyal to your partner as well because being loyal to one person is a sign which serves as a mirror for a better and stronger relationship.Everyone can say i love you but not everyone can wait and prove it's true.

im in a long distance rel right now. well its really hard to make it work. its all about compromise and all. you guys should be able to handle each others' lapses and flaws and be understanding with each other. make sure that the communication is active because that is the most effective way to keep in touch. have a nice day!
