  • I know that feeling. :o You've just got to be thankful for the time you do get together, rather than regretting all the time you don't. And that's so much easier said than done. :(

    Oh man, it sucks!!! Sorry Harmless, but it will get better! It's hard when you can't see the person you love all the time....but of course that makes the heart grow even fonder!! IT also makes seeing them again very exciting!!! :D

    Yes...it's damn hard. But that's good! If it was easy for you to leave each other that would be a problem, wouldn't it? I'm glad you got to spend some time together - and really enjoy yourselves! Savor that...you will have it again :) I can't do 6 months apart again :( It looks like we might have to...but I just don't know how I'm gonna do it.

    Harmless,

    Why do I feel like I'm reading your journal sometimes? Don't get me wrong. I find it equally admirable as puzzling that you would talk so openly in an environment such as this. I don’t even think I open up to my wife as well as you open up to strangers.

    Mind you, I’m certainly not suggesting anyone act like me…

    Different strokes I guess, mate. No harm in either approach, I'm just open.

    It really sucks :( Yeah looks like it...I'll probably be able to move there in about a year...so we're looking at maybe one more visit before then. I hope you guys get to see each other soon! As much as the being apart sucks...it makes you appreciate the being together so much more.

    This thread makes the distance and everything seem so much further and so much tougher tonight. It's kind of nice seeing other people in this sad state, as greedy and/or evil as that seems.

    :) exactly. I think it's a great way to start a relationship... if it's really not meant to work, you'll both get tired of it after a while and simply drift apart.

    Yes harmless it really is this difficult :o and there's no way around that... but I find the times together more than make up for it and make every second of misery worthwhile :)

    I'm sorry it's hard for you guys...and everyone else. Sometimes it helps to know you're not the only one dealing with a difficult situation.

    I agree with Helen...if you're willing to deal with the distance and the time apart and all the things that go along with it...that's how you know your feelings are real. You wouldn't go through all that if the person didn't really matter to you.

    I met a lovely woman at a wedding awhile back. We lived in different cities at the time and it was really tough. We did the long distance thing and then I got a job offer and moved, so we could live in the same city. It was definitely worth it as we're getting married in July!

    Hang in there...the times you're apart totally suck. But, the times you are together make up for being apart. Plus, you grow much closer when you're long distance.

    whilst still keeping your own space and your own seperate lives... while it can be hard, I actually think it's a great way to start a relationship.

    Well I agree...and how many relationships do you know where people conciously set aside a part of their day just to talk to the other person?
    When someone is always there it's all too easy to take each other for granted.

    Oh yes, I read a quote from Ali Hewson the other day saying about bono and how the time apart when he's touring is good for their relationship and she said the same, about how it's too easy to take eachother for granted.

    I reckon that even when we ARE living together, some distance will be a good thing.

    Well when you are living together the time you've spent talking and getting to know each other inside out will pay dividends.

    Absolutely :) . The little things count for so much when you're in a long distance relationship... even just sitting down watching a film or going for a drive, ya make every second count.

    If I was married to Bono I would prefer for him to be away most of the time to.
