Four years, and at least two more to go. But it's doable, and so worth it.

6 months is the longest we've gone without seeing each other. It has been three months since my last visit and we do not have a set date for the next one yet. We are looking at closing the distance by the end of this year and that is what keeps me going.

6 months for us, which is also the duration of our relationship. :P
If we're lucky we'll be able to see each other this summer. It will be 9 months by then. If we're not lucky then it will be my autumn break when I get to see her, at which point it will be 12 months, 1 full year.

Our longest was 11 months. We started talking again in August 2012 and I went for a visit in March 2013 and left in the middle of April. We were supposed to have a visit that October but it wasn't able to happen and he couldn't take time off from work during the holiday season. We just had a visit this month though. We won't have to go that long without a visit again as we have one scheduled for late May/early June and are going to try for either August or October for the next one. Depending on when we marry, we may have one more visit after that.
It was difficult to go that long without a visit and I believe that it caused us to have more issues than we would have if a visit would have been possible sooner. We tried to make the most of it by talking on the phone and skyping at least two or three times a week. We would text or message when one or both of us were working or busy too. An unexpected card or small gift went a long way towards helping the other feel special and thought of too.Our love story:

Few days shy of 3 months, that was right after I moved and it was really hard for me. I know some people can go longer, but then I told myself I need to see him at least once every couple of months ... I do hope we can make it.

It took ten months from getting together to meeting for the first time. If we're not counting that, then the longest we have been apart is nine months, between the second and third visits. After that I made sure to see him at least once every four months.I thought of you and the years and all the sadness fell away from me - Pink Floyd
