Can You Survive a Long-Distance Relationship?
Posted by pink on November 11, 2008
“The course of true love never did run smooth” I think this quote by Shakespeare is true for those who are in long-distance relationships. Nowadays, couples who engage in this kind are a lot luckier compared to those who had it when internet and cellphones were not yet invented. But still, long-distance couples really have to go the extra mile to make the relationship work. If you ask me if I had been in one, YES. One thing I have learned is that you should be more creative and articulate in expressing how you feel. Trust is a very important factor. Stop the paranoia, will you? Most of all, it can only work if the two persons involved is really committed in making it work. It takes extra care, time and commitment. You also have to allot extra money to buy tons of phone card. You can look for affordable Philippines phone cards online if that’s what you need.
But Long-distance relationships also have it’s good points. You learn to communicate more with the person and discover more about the other person before you engage in sexual means of expressing thy love. Besides, it’s also a test for both of you. If you can make it work despite the distance, then you know you are really meant for each other.
Absence diminishes little passions but increases great ones, as wind extinguishes a candle but fans a fire.

Very well written though it would have been nice if more had been said.
Distance is a figment of the imagination when it deals with relationship. Meaning to say, that two persons could be so close that not even a piece of paper could pass in between them and yet that physical proximity does not guarantee that everything is honkey dorey between the two persons.
It is not so much the distance but the meeting of minds that is developed with trust, respect and adds meaning to existence that is the mainstay of an immortalised relationship.
Gosh! that was too philosophical.

Tukayo,
I believe with conviction that the real test of true love is time and distance. If two persons are able to hurdle the time and separation test, then it would be so great. They really are meant for each other. The meeting of the hearts and minds is a MUST for a long distance relationship to work. I do not want to sound an expert in this aspect but being into this kind of relationship is not a walk in the park. Patience is the key. It is a virtue that requires a lot of waiting

I’ve never been in a long distance relationship coz I know it’s gonna be SO hard for me. Constant communication is important and yes, I know it’s possible in a long-distance relationship but it’s a lot different since you can’t see each other often :s So no, i’m not up for a long-distance relationship.
