Long distance relationships suck. There, I said it. Is it worth it? Yes. Do I recommend it? Not really, but if it’s worth it, yes. How do you know if it’s worth it? Do you wish you could share everything you do with your special someone? Do you wish they were in your bed every night? Do you wish they were waiting for you when you got home from work? Do you dream about being together in the same town, under the same roof? Is someone willing to make that sacrifice? Are you committed to short term pain for long term gain? I’m constantly reminded that I’m right where I’m supposed to be at this time. My favorite quote lately: “God has you right where you are strategically for the revolution.” What is supposed to happen will happen when the time is right. For now, I’m right where I’m supposed to be and I know that. Doesn’t mean it’s easy though.
What makes it work? Trust. And commitment.
I had to comment on this one because you said exactly how I feel everyday. I know Charlie is only in Toledo, but it doesn’t make it any easier. Sometimes knowing that he is that close, but yet so far away makes it harder for me. I don’t know about you, but being long distant and having to work at the relationship and yes…..TRUST……I feel has made Charlie and I that much stronger as a couple!!
