Couples in love may often find themselves having to live apart for a period of time throughout their relationship due to job commitment, studies, military obligation and etc. This has made us wonder whether a relationship can survive the physical distance. Different people may have different view towards the subject and if you ask me, I will give you this answer: YOU are the one who is going to determine whether it will work or not” ,“There are nobody in this world who can tell you whether you can survive or not except yourself”. Surviving a long distance relationship is not about promises or luck but it is very much dependent on how you think, act, manage and most importantly, how you want the outcome to be.

Any relationship should be special and meaningful for both the partners, whether it is long-distance or not. If there is love and trust between two individuals, it does not make a difference whether they are living together or separated from each other.

But it might be overwhelming at times when partners are faced with too many challenges and setbacks and cannot handle them alone, just because they are not spending their daily lives together. Some tips could be helpful for people who are going through tough separation periods.

Long distance relationships can actually enhance maturity, bonding and growth. You learn to be honest to each other and show respect and trust for each other. Since there is no day-to-day interaction with each other, each one ’s thoughts are not communicated to each other for which there is no discussion and reflection.

The most important thing about long-distance relationships is to listen to each other in a caring manner. You must have implicit trust in your partner, and this can only be facilitated if there is total honesty in the partnership.

Challenging and difficult, though they may not be what we want to hear, are the words that best describe long distance relationships. Keep in mind however, that the words are challenging and difficult, not impossible. Many people choose to give a long distance relationship a try, with the constant curiosity if it was the right decision to make and if it even stands a chance. The truth is, a long distance relationship has just as much a chance of succeeding as any other relationship!

Long Distance Relationships share the same facts as an average relationship. It involves two people who share an interest in each other’s lives, care for one another and of course have a love for each other that they hope will only continue to grow. On the other hand, a long distance relationship does have its differences as well. It takes away your ability to see each other on a frequent note, as well as the choice of being intimate whenever you desire, not to mention that there would be major trust required. Being unable to spend time together in a physical presence makes it harder to hang on to, but does not spell out doom for your relationship. Read the rest of this entry »

Another great tips for LDL Club members!

1. Not making time for the person. This should be a “well duh” type of thing but sometimes people forget that ldr’s can be sensitive objects that require much care. I remember one time I was so excited about seeing my sweetie over the weekend. I had been planning and planning and then he calls me and says he’s not coming because he wants to do something with his friend. I took it as him putting his friend before me. That did not go over too well.

2. Lying. You think when you are far away that it’s easier to lie because you won’t get caught. I beg to differ. Once you lie you have to keep lying to cover up your lies and it’s just not worth it. Don’t insult your significant other by thinking that they won’t remember what you previously told them.

3. Failing to do the extra’s. Long distance relationships require a little more care than your average relationship. You are not there, people get insecure and lonely. Be sensitive to that and remember that a little thoughtfulness goes a long way.
