My boy friend and I have known each other for about 4 years.We love each other very much.But he is a sailor,so he doesn't have enough time to stay with me.I have more leisure time than him,so when I miss him a lot ,i will go to the port to see him.you know,we can't see each other as ofter as other lovers. when I have some problems and he isn't around me i just can't be so happy.sometimes i just i want somebody to sit beside me and listen to me,but he can't.Do you lovers have the same problem about distance.how do you solve it?

ya its big problem when distance between two lovers and specially girls want more attention from their lover when boy dnt have that much time for girl. when u need him he dnt have time that really bad thing but u have lot of friend who help u when u feel alone consider ur self as ur best friend and try to solve ur problem alone in starting its difficult but after some time u becm ur best frnd and u live more happy life :) when u miss him so much think abt time which u spend together

But some times he also want your love. but due to the time, work load he can't give attention on you. then you should understand him. and about the distance - distance always lover closer and closer.

sorry to say but i think distance make one gap between any relation u cnt see each other so u cnt able to explain what u want to say and this gap never to be filled it always expand. and for u r talking abt love if girl can manage everything then y u cant if girl do her all work as well as spend time with u then y boys cnt?

My husband and I will be apart for potentially the next 4 years. We are use to spending every day together and talking for hours on end when we had to be apart. Now I can't talk to him so much and only get to spend time with him every once in a while. The worse part is not getting to talk to him. We would talk everynight and morning. I felt like it was going to weaken our bond. To keep it strong, I write to him every day, all day. Well, sporadically. I keep a journal with me and write to him all the things that we would normally talk about. He writes to me too. Our bond is just as strong as ever. Now when I get his letters I'm pleased to see that we are often thinking about the same things. Our letters help fill the void. Hope this helps. It is important that you both communicate. Communicate about everything, even the stupidest little things. To keep the bond you both have to feel actively involved in each others lives. Good luck.

i know it's so hard to have a relationship like this but if you really love him then the distance will not be bound for you. because love never be judge by distance my friends.

After having spent six years in a long distance relationship with someone, and only finally having got together in the last six months, I'd say the distance just makes you appreciate each other more. You certainly don't take each other for granted.
