Its been nearly 1 year n my partner and I have been living apart, him in the "Big Smoke" (Auckland) and well yes me down in the Waikato Area..... I have found it hard and also at the same time really a blessing as it seems that We get seem closer every time he visits or I am able to get to where he is. I am hoping that he manages to make his way beside me one day, patient is a virtue. How many are in the same vote as myself, from all walks of life.. for those who respond to this discussion and all discussions that I have put on mylot thank you for your response...

I've been in a long distance relationship before. No doubt it was very hard, especially with the time difference. i have no idea how i survived that, but i did. drove me nuts at times and made me cry too. but there are many means to keep in touch; telephone, email, IMs, digi cam..etc. i missed him a lot, every single second and wish i could see him or for him to be physically there with me, whenever i was sad or happy. you need to have a solid trust, as you're not able to see what your other half is doing. And you need to have lots of faith, enough to not make you give up on your relationship. but i believe, in the end, love is what that holds you together. if two people really love each other, no matter how far they apart they are, they'll be able to go thru the relationship. love knows no boundaries;).

I've been in long distance relationship and its not hard for me to be far. I have full trust on my girlfriend and I know we both can wait for each other not just for days but even for years. I can wait to meet her and be patient knowing she is mine and she wont break my trust. Sometimes we fight but then we grow more closer to each other after every fight we have. Sometimes the fights are very aggressive sometimes they are stupid. We love each other very much even we are so far. In the hope to meet soon we make our absence sweet! Very sweet and then we miss each other. We would call in mid of night to just to say "I miss you". She misses me alot too but never lets me know, She cries for me feeling that I am with her always and never gonna leave her alone We love each other way too alot and i don't mind being far, we miss each other, but we make our relationship more stronger being far. I know m gonna meet her soon someday, but i wish that day would be just once, I don't wanna keep her missing me i can be patient but i don't want her to feel the suffering of this patience. Maybe i am patient but maybe shes not. She would want me to be close to her and i would try my best to be closer to her not for just couple of days But forever!

I have been in a long distance relationship for over 2 years now and let me tell you it is hard. But everytime we do see eachother it is just that more of a special time for us. My fiance works 2 provinces over from where we live on the pipeline but as I see it too keep the lifestlye and to make the money he makes out there is truly a blessing for us. We love and trust eachother so we have no worries on that aspect it just is very hard.
