Unlike relationships wherein you get to see your significant other on a daily basis, more work is needed from both parties involved in a long distance relationship. Even with the negative comments from the non-believers, long distance relationships can work. What both of the parties need is a good amount of long distance relationship advice from the people who know what it is like to be apart from the one they love. It may be difficult as you are apart but it is not impossible.
Every relationship needs hard work for it to work out in the end. For those relationships considered to be "love online", even more effort has to be put in. With that distance, not making an effort to communicate or meet will be the start of that relationship's downfall.
Couples separated with the distance can and will survive the distance if they both put in their share of hard work. Love is a two way street, not a one way lane. If the couple is not willing to work on their relationship, they might as well end it.
i started out with ldr's, and i'm proud to say that i am very happily married.
ReplyDeleteto add to this great blog. depending on how much you share you love with your partner, a marriage shouldn't ever be entered into immediately, and in ldr's the time you have waiting for each other make you know your partner even better, a marriage after that is like a scientist finally solving the a decade long problem. imust admit that it would have been so good for me if not for cheap international calls from mobile to mobile as i had financial problems for a significant period in my relationship.
