Being in one is a big challenge. It's not the same as a normal relationship and quite frankly, it sucks sometimes.. Not being able to see them on a daily basis which means, no hugging, no snuggling, no kissing for the longest time. It feels even worse when you are at your low point and all you want is to be in their arms.. But then they are so far, far away that you feel even more lonely. And then, there are days where you two don't talk all day bcoz of you all separate lives. One maybe too busy with school, family, work, etc that you feel like you are being left out. Above all, you can't do anything about this but to TRUST that everything is okay on the other end. Your trust that, they are still committed to you that they have not lost their feelings for you. But then sometimes, it feels so much worth it. Communicating makes it more special. You cherish every single conversation when you get the chance to talk. Esp when you finally get to see each other, it feels so much more special. This kind of challenge is something that most couples do not go through so this relationship is a bit diff and more special than others. On a side note, you won't deal with the clinginess of your partner all too much either and you two can still do your own thing. Basically, what I'm trying to say here is that, this kind of relationship takes a LOT of TRUST and COMMUNICATION. Lack of either trait will take the relationship to rock bottom. Also, you know what you are getting yourself into when this relationship happens. Some people forget thatt they put themselves in this situation yet they still complain about it. But hey!You kind of put yourself in this situation, you should suck it up and do something about it! A lot of people out there say that Long Distance Relationships don't work well but that is because they don't believe that it is possible FOR THEM. I'll be honest, I have said that couple of times. And I've gone through it before once as well. I can't say it was the greatest experience of long distance relationship because he was being clingy and we lived few part apart only. Malaysia - Brunei. We got to see each other once then I broke it off. We've been for like 3 years, if I'm not mistaken. He began to did something which I dislike and I couldn't straight away and fly to M'sia just to stop him. So, I told myself, this shit doesn't work aymore. So, in the end, distance doesn't really matter.

What does matter is, the person who YOU ARE with.
Do you care about him/her enough to be this far apart?
Are you willing to sacrifice to be in this relationship?
Ask yourself that before you get into a Long Distance Relationship.

It's a tough decison and doesn't work for everyone. But when you truly care or even love someone enough, you'd do anything to be with them.

That is all for today. Hope you guys learnt something.
