long distance relationship

hi jomzel! totally agree, long distance relationship is hard. Because first and foremost there is no assurance in it, your not sure if the other party is truly honest with you or not. One more thing, there are a lot o fear and anxieties involved with it. But you know what, only one thing would truly guarantee that your relationship would work - and that is GOD. without Him in between your relationship it wouldn't prosper. Trust me on this because I have gone through all those negative feelings and emotions before my hubby and i decided o get married :) one more thing there is no secret ingredient on how your relationship would work. because each one is unique, no two relationship is the same, we may have some similarities but we still have a lot of differences. so just stay strong, have faith and stand with what you feel (love) kudos to your relationship. happy mylotting :)

Long distance relationship is ok as long as everything is working out fine but when misunderstanding, doubts and insecurities started to emerge, it will be hard to maintain. To keep it working, things needed to be present are constant communication, be open to each other, no secrets, patience, be understanding, trust, faith and respect. Also, mutual feelings should be present. The love you are giving should also receive the same level of loving from your partner. Both of you should take care of your relationship, both of you should give all your best, dedicate time and importance to your relationship and avoid making your partner feel hurt, and insecure. And always give assurance to your partner how much you love him/her. Sweet phrases should always be there also. I'm wishing you and your partner best of luck.

Hi. I'm also on long- distance relationship and yes 100% hard but it still working for me and my boyfriend. I think it doesn't matter whether your love is very far from you as long as you both love each other and are sticking to what you have promised to each other.

it depends. i think it works for two people in love. :)

Yes and no, i mean, for some people they work, for others they don't. I guess it just depends on how much you really want to be together. Sometimes LDR are for the better, you get a chance to discover how much you miss that person and how much you want to be with them. They will always be difficult, but good communication and trust is the key to making a LDR work :)

im in a ldr now and me and my gf been going thru somethings but we work them out

I am in a LDR now, first time for everything! haha...I think the most important part for it to work is TRUST. We both trust each other, and stay in touch, either texting or calls, everyday, off and on through out the day. We also have planned trips to spend time together through out the year, both directions. There is the probability that I will be moving to where he is by the end of the year. But there are commitments I have to fulfill in order to do that. So for now, we are both happy with the way it is, yes, we miss each other, but as the old saying goes.....distance makes the heart grow fonder....We also trust each other and are honest about everything, two main ingredients along with open and truthful communication.

Indeed long distance relationships is really hard and it depends on the lovers if it will last.In case of my cousin who is in abroad right experience it and their 3 years relationship was gone caused her boyfriend who's here already got married.My cousin really got heart and having a hard time to accept and move on.We are always on her side for her to cope up and move on in her life.

I think I'm one of those few people who had a long distance relationship that lasted. So answering your question, based on experience: It's worth it. To make it work, you both have to understand your present situation. May it be work or studies, of just plain distance. If you two really do love each other, you guys can always find ways. I've had a LDR that lasted for 4 years. We met online, and we first met each other 2 years after. I won't lie, I did have doubts. It's hard keeping that kind of relationship. Maybe it was just me, being envious and jealous of every guy she could see and talk to personally. Which brings me to the point, that Trust, is a big thing here. I noticed most LDR lovers, really trust each other, like no one or the other is cheating or something. Anyways to sum it up. All a LDR need is a lot of Trust, Faith and Love. And a looot of communication. If you or your LDR lover could not commit to that, then. Better not have that kind or relationship.

With LDR are both extremely devoted to one another,and willing to make sacrifices for the relationship.

Long distance relationship is wonderful:- it makes every hour and minutes worth among two sides, and it gives certain challenges that make us stronger... I really enjoy it.

Everything depends on us what should we have done. if we believe in long terms relationship then we keep easily to go on. otherwise we defeat from it to carry on.

Well,as for me I'm in a long distance relationship too. I can say that both individuals play a vital role in maintaining an LDR. Communication is very important. It should be constant no matter what. Because if it fails or slows down maybe some things wrong. But either way, you should be both committed because love itself is not enough. It's a mere feeling that in the long run will fade away but with commitment you can stay a little while longer.

I think that it very much depends on the couple in question, and also depends largely on what each of you want from your relationship. I was in a relationship like that once, and while the other person was fine with it, it just annoyed me that I wasn't able to see him whenever I wanted to. We didn't last very long and, although we're still friends, we just had to end our relationship because I wasn't happy at all which meant that we weren't getting on as well as we might have done in the past. It was nobody's fault; just something that couldn't be helped, really.

hi jomzel long distance relation ship is it depends upon caring out the relation ship if there is trust and loyalty you will have a stronger relation ship, i also try to have a relation ship it is good because we have a trust and loyalty

If you really love that person and if that person truly loves you, in other words - you both love each other much- then, yes, such a relationship will work if both are determined. There are people who would go on long for these relationships because they feel they have found the 'right one' to be with. It's like the connection is there. Such ways to help these relationships to be successful would be to maintain the contact with each other through phone talks, emails or even sending each other greeting cards, etc. And they will find time to meet and eventually one day, they will find a way to be together offline.

It's not the distance that stops the love. It's the doubts.

Some LDR work, some don't. It really depends upon how much you have in common to begin with and whether your future plans enable you to be together. You have to ask yourself whether you are going to sacrifice all opportunities to be with the person you love.

ldr does exist! i have know couples with that kind of relationship.. i may say its great! it depends on how you both handle the relationship is.. just keep trusting each other and always be honest
