Go The Distance

Someone once said, ~Distance never separates two hearts that really care, for our memories span the miles and in seconds we are there. But whenever I start feeling sad, because I miss you, I remind myself how lucky I am to have someone so special to miss.~ Let me ask you this question, do you believe in long distance relationships and whether or not it has longevity between two people? Without a doubt, being in a long distance relationship is the hardest thing for people to be in because you're miles away from the one you love. For the temptations of straying to someone other than one's significant other tend to show itself; but not succumbing to those temptations make the relationship two people have stronger.

Trust, above all else, is the most important thing between two people who are head over heels for each other. Though oceans or states separate you physically, which can be a painful feeling, it can't separate the emotional bond you have and feel for that particular person. For no matter how hard you try not to think about him or her, you end up thinking about that person even more and that can tear you up inside. But the question can be asked , if it hurts so bad, why does it feel so good? If you think about it, it doesn't make any sense at all, but in all honesty nothing absolutely nothing about love makes sense. A person can try to understand it all he or she likes, but in the long run, one will just get more and more confused.

I once said that it's a simple thing such as love that every person wants and yet its the most complicated thing to come one's way; but once you truly experience it, you never want it to end. Undeniably, you know how you feel for that person and have no doubts that he or she is the one you have been waiting your whole life for. Yet, it's easy to say you want to be with that person but when you can't physically be there next to him or her, it can be a frustrating situation indeed. Life would be great if we simply had the ability to think about that person or wish for that person to be at your side and within a blink of an eye, he or she appears in front of you. Initially, one just has to be there for him or her in spirit and as the saying goes, distance makes the heart grow fonder.

Essentially, the key factor and most important aspect in long distance relationships is communication. However, one of the biggest mistakes guys, as well as girls, make in a long distance relationship is usually not communicating with the one he or she supposedly loves and is committed to wholeheartedly. For it doesn't necessarily mean contacting him or her every single day of the week, but rather on a semi-daily basis which in my opinion is every 2 or 3 days. Staying in contact with that someone special shows that you truly value the loving relationship that is shared between each other, which shows a level of progression that could possibly lead into the next level of one's relationship whatever that level may be.

Someone once said, ~Though the miles between us are many, the heart is a bridge that can span the largest oceans. Thus, we shall always be close, as long as we are in each other's hearts."~ I started this thought by asking the question, do you believe in long distance relationships and does it have longevity between two people. In my opinion, if it is built on faithfulness, trust, honesty, and communication I would say yes; but for some people if it isn't, then you and that person will have to re-evaluate the relationship at hand. In the end, when it comes to keeping a long distance relationship between you and the one you love that stands the test of time, are you willing to go the distance?
