I was talking with a friend yesterday whos LDR failed in a massively explosive way. She's now in a CDR with another one of our friends and much happier. The LDR was with a distance of about 50 miles (if that) and they saw each other about once a week for saturday afternoons. She was asking me how my relationship is going (and she's not that good of a friend so I just said fine, even though at the time we were in a bit of a fight) and then started saying how amazing our relationship must be if we're both still this happy and making it work with no real issues.
I'm not going to say that it's easy being in a LDR, but she seemed to think it was so much harder than it needs to be - it's all about communication in the end. And if that's letters, emails, IM, phone calls or whatever, at the end of the day, good relationships make the most of what they have to be able to talk...
Anyway, I was just wondering if any of you just sit back sometimes and wonder how you're doing it? I know I do occasionally... and if I didn't love him so much, I know I wouldnt be able to do it even though we do see each other one sometimes two times a month.
Thoughts?
