I know this has been a topic before, but how do you feel in your relationship today?

[Daylan]

I was thinking about this on and off for the last few days, but as of right now, how do you feel in your relationship? I know when I first started out, it was all good and everything couldn't be any more perfect. But then doubt started to creep in and things kinda went down hill and I was in a little slump because I made a really bad mistake and it made things kinda tense between us. But after all that, everything turned out fine and now since I have a job, both of us are busy all day (or practically) and even though we don't speak much (which was a big issue when I was unemployed, but now it's not that big of a deal), I know we're still good in our relationship (Or I would like to think we are :P haha). I plan to visit her sometime Summer 2012 because by then I'll be able to save up enough money to grab a plane ticket to go to Nova Scotia and come back, plus have a little spending money to spare.

As for me, if I didn't really explain it, I'm in a really comfortable position in my relationship and hopefully it doesn't change for the worse. It made me feel even better when a co-worker of mine told me while we were on break that her and her husband met online and have been married for over 7 years. While that's them and their story, it gives me hope that my SO and I make it that far (we've talked about marriage before, but only once or three times). So, tell me your story and if you closed the distance for good, then lay it on me haha I like to hear the success stories because there's too many people who say that LDR's don't last long...I want to prove them wrong

Right now i feel hopeful. We haven't closed the distance yet, but I have an amazing SO who is a hard worker and loves me. He's coming here in a few months, then taking me to meet his family for a few months, and here's the huge part. A proposal is in our future. We have been talking about it a lot, and he says and... Omg! I keep imagining it, me, his wife! So right now things are good, im hopeful for the future. Tomorrow is our day together, I plan to spend it with him, I want to see his face and just love him. Things are starting to look up, he seems more.... not exactly cheerful but not as low as he was before, So I hope things just go up from here.

At the moment I'm feeling extremely lonely. I was just diagnosed with an incurable disease the day after Thanksgiving and with cold/flu going around I see all these couples taking care of each other and making their SO feel better, something I really need right now and he's across the country. I'm also worried that he might leave me because of this, quite irrational I know, but this is something I'll have to deal with for the rest of my life and me being low in self confidence can't comprehend why anyone would want to stick around for my sake.

*sigh*

Frustrated.

We have been doing so well and been able to visit alot. But right now, I am just frustrated at the distance and at different things that are having an impact on our relationship. But I still feel loved and just want to work it all out. Now if only i can get him to use his words when trying to work all of this stuff out.

I feel needy, and easily irritated with him. Time is passing slowly. But I only have to sleep alone four more nights so I know I need to give him his space to get organised and say his goodbyes.
I'm hopeful for our future, and a little scared.

Today I also feel like no love story can compare to our fairy tale.

God bless you <3

It is a little frustrating with the distance (because she lives in a different country and I live in the actual country here in SC), but I am also hopeful. While it was a kind of slap to the face when she said she couldn't make it this month after 4 months of waiting, it's ok because the longer we wait, the better it will be. I say "Good things come to those who wait". I waited for my SO, so I can definitely wait for the day that I get to hold her in my arms. I can't wait, but I'm going to have to ;P

[Zapookie]

Things are looking up for us. Christian finally landed a job the other day, after a month of applying for every possible opportunity we found, and he started today. So hopefully once he saves enough he'll be back here and we can get a place together! Oh, how I long to live happily ever after with him.

[maja_marky]

full of hope, getting stronger as time passes by

early next year he'll be going here to meet me and my fam...its kinda weird becos as time passes by we both know and feel how we misses each other everyday...yes, we always talk and thats everyday but then as we are approaching to the day we will meet we even miss each other more and more...

we are getting nearer to the specific date and we are starting to hate night already...haha!

[Biddlybiddlybombop]

I feel secure. We're on an even keel. I'm pretty chilled, and he's pretty chilled. Obviously we've had our ups and downs, but on the whole, it's a pretty good relationship. I don't want to see anyone else, he doesn't want to see anyone else. I trust him, he trusts me. We're getting on with our lives because we know that if we want to be together in the future, there's stuff we have to tie up in our respective lives before we can do that. I'm going to miss him like crazy when we're apart for six months after Christmas, but I know that that's just something we have to do.

[heylittlekrissy]

Happy and anxious.

For the most part, I'm very happy with where we're at. We're both head over heels for each other, and we've been able to work through any issues we've had, big or small. Neither of us are perfect, and our relationship isn't perfect, but we're perfect for each other.
I'm anxious to meet him though, like, after knowing him for almost 4 years online, and being together almost 8 months, I'm done waiting! Lol but I know I have to have patience until the time comes.

[HollzHeartsChris]

It's early days yet for me and my SO. Very early days. But we're comfortable with each other and I have no complaints other than the fact that I wished he had the internet at home. That would make things a whole lot easier =P

[kteire]

I feel like I've been telling myself "It'll be worth it" all along, and now I'm really starting to see that My SO and I have been getting to see each other a lot more often, and despite my lack of regular work lately, I am so thrilled that moving over to be near him has been more worth it than I could have imagined! I get to see him again next weekend, and I can't wait!!

[Daylan]

I'm happy to see many people in a good position It makes me feel good about my relationship. I know it's probably going to be awhile before I get to see her, but it'll all be worth it...I keep on telling myself this almost every day and I know it's true because I love her very much and she loves me and we're perfect for each other. We've talked about marriage, kids, and all that stuff, but we also agreed that all of that can wait until we're together physically for good and we're financially stable. People has tried to ward me off by saying that since she lives in Canada, I'm her ticket in to being an American Citizen....but that only happens when the two people get married...That won't be until a long time from now, so unless she's really patient or just mean like that, I'm not worried at all whatsoever.

I'm feeling pretty discouraged. He wasn't even let in to his Visa interview today, and if he doesn't get to come to me in January, I don't know when the next time I'll see him is. My grandparents won't help me with travel money,and uni sucks out most of my income... soooo.

I'm just letting myself cry, question, and binge on chocolate today.
