I Believe Long Distance Relationship Can Work

It can. For a while. Good communication and a strong resolve is all it takes at first. But as time goes by and you're out of that rainbows and butterflies phase, reality smacks you in the face. You'll never be able love her and hold her the way she wants you to. There'll be a limit to how much you can comfort her when she's down and at her worst. When all she needs is a warm hug to make her sorrows disappear and you feel helpless being so far away. No amount of talking over the phone will equal a moment of lovingly staring into her eyes. When she is faced with a dilemma and you wish with all your heart you could just be there for her. In the end, it all catches up to you. No matter how much you love her or how much attention you give her... circumstances will tear you apart.

I'm in a LDR. We get together regularly and more often now. We adore each other. The most difficult part is that I like a lot of sex, a lot of touching, kissing. I masterbate and it helps when he's part of it. But sometimes I just miss his warmth, whispered voice, the sighs. :-(

Thank you. Are you in a LDR? We are strong-we communicate well

@Bookwrmgirl: Nope. Sadly, it didn't work out for me.
N it's good that you do. Keep it up !

I think the thing about LDRs is that there needs to be an end goal in sight. There needs to be a plan to get together on a fixed schedule or eventually move in together, you need to be doing something to bring you two closer. If there's no plan set in place for that to happen or it isn't possible, it's just fruitless and painful.
The right one will come along for you someday.

I know. But it's the moments that count you know. Like being there for her when she needs it. Not after a while. That moment, you know. N it gets hard fixing a schedule when the jobs get in the way. Like I said... circumstances.
