Long Distance Relationship Advice For A Happy Life Ahead

**Posts:** 1589 · by **Ali Baby** » Fri Jan 30, 2015 9:36 pm

I've been in a long distance relationship for 6 years, with a man I met on this very forum, actually. We met 10 years ago here.

We have never had a problem trusting each other and do very well at communicating honestly and openly. We speak on the phone every da, sometimes twice, text most of the day and see each other as much as possible.

We plan to move in togethbe and get married but it is t financially viable at present. It will happen, though. Until then, we'll continue with what we're doing, because it must be right if our relationship has lasted 6 years!

Long distance is never easy, but if its the right relationship, and you're both fully committed and make every effort to make it work, there's no reason it can't go the distance!

Being in a long distance for me is like dating a ghost.. but I guess if you are really meant for each other it wouldnt be a problem

I don't think its like dating a ghost. ITs a lot easier to communicate daily that its ever been, with texts, phonecalls, video chat etc. As long as both partners are committed and make the effort, it can and does work.

Odd to leave it long distance for six years, I think.

That's because you don't know either of us, or our situations.

There are no jobs for me where he is, and vice versa. We are both in debt. My ex left me in rather a lot of debt, and I need to stay in employment till I get this paid off. He can't afford to keep us both until his own debts are paid off. Once we are both on a better financial footing, then we will be able to decide who will make the move. Money makes the world go round and all that, and at the moment, its lack of money that is preventing us to make the move.

The person who started this thread, must have deleted their original post, because it is saying that I started this thread and I didn't I simply replied to it.

Long distance relationship is where your trust and faith with each other is going to be tested.

But keeping in touch always with one another can save your relationship.

Not been to LDR but I think true love knows no boundaries even the distance can't stop a love that is worth giving.

Ed, you're so right. As long as both people are fully committed to the relationship and they're right for each other, then it can and does work. It jus takes some extra effort x

Thanks, Ed. You're so kind. I'm not happy with the distance, but financially there isn't really anything that can be done to change that at the moment. I AM happy with the relationship, though. He really is the perfect guy and the distance doesn't stop us maintaining a happy and fulfilling relationship.
