Long Distant Relationships: Do they Work?

So many doubts arise in the minds of many when you mention the idea of dating someone miles away.

Some say you should just date someone within your reach so that you can spend time with them when ever you want. Others add on the fear that if you are not with this person daily then its possible for them to cheat when they are lonely and seeking comfort.

Why must we follow the rules set by society?

If you meet someone who turns out to be just what you need in your life then why let distance seperate you from making that person part of your life?

I believe that distance should not stop you from having the happiness you deserve. So both of you may be working and you both have your own established places in the city where you are and you wonder about relocating. During the dating stage you should use this time to just talk and get to know eachother more. Visit as much as possible. Converse with eachother daily whether it be texts or a phone call.

Relocation should not take place until you both feel the dating is about to turn into something serious like marriage.

It is a work but anything worth having in life requires work. You both also must trust eachother and not lead the other person to believe you are being deceitful.

Communication is very much needed and the more you both talk or do live videos through social sites like, Glide, Snapchat, or Skype the more the trust will grow.

When you love someone or believe in your heart it is destined for greatness then distance will not hinder you from love.

You will do what it takes to be sure that you have that person in your life. You will fight for them because who really wants to sit back and give up? Who wants to watch someone you care for go off to marry someone else just because you were to doubtful and afraid to try?

You can always move to be with the one you love.

Nothing is stopping you but you.

Long distance does work if you put in the work to bring it closer.
