Long distance relationship

We made it official recently. KiwiDan and I are dating.
Well sort of. It's long distance. It's dating but different than being in person. But still dating of sorts. Just everything feels so very far away.

Long distance relationships are still pretty new to me.
I'm excited for lots of video calls, texting, voice calls on apps and meeting in person. if you have any good advice, if you've had a successful long distance relationship that turned out well, please write a comment.

I already have some dates picked out for visiting. I hope this works out.

Wish us luck, please.

@truegen @Northwest My condolences that you've both apparently found such people that lie like that.

@KiwiDan Now I'm super curious if there will be a bunch of copycat posts. . I want to hear about all the drama if this happens. 🤪

It takes a lot to make a LDR work. I also have done it. It take a lot of patience, gov't red tape, paperwork and money. It take the 3C's, Communication, Commitment, and Compromise.

@IM5688 I really appreciate this comment. Thank you. Sometimes thinking about all those extra obstacles can feel a little intimidating. But also lots of people manage to do it and things work out. :)

Congratulations to you both, if you keep the communication going and make a plan to eventually turn your relationship into a non LDR you’ll do well. 🌹🌹

@SW-User Thank you. I hope so too!

Good luck. I have a close friend in the philippines and getting them a visa to come here is impossible. I'd have to marry them.
shakemeup · 36-40
@Tastyfrzz That's ridiculous that it's so difficult. I'm sorry.
Awesome. Dan seems like a good dude. Best of luck to you both.

Congratulations on making it official! Long distance can be challenging, but it sounds like you both are committed to making it work. My advice is to communicate openly and frequently, and always make time for each other, even if it's virtual. Planning visits and having things to look forward to is a great idea. Wishing you both all the luck and happiness! 💕
Oh, and congratulations, of course! 🍀

@truegen Thank you for the congratulations and for the lucky 4 leaf clover :)

Congrats!
I miss having long distance relationships. They were a lot of fun!

@BittersweetPotato Thank you!
You don't need to touch each other to have a loving and satisfying relationship.
But it takes TWO.
vorian · 51-55, M
Congratulations!
Heres my experience...
I was in an LDR for 2 years...we had a plan to be together after that and it worked. Its not easy.
All I'd say is you need a plan for when youll be together...an end to the long distance bit. Otherwise i dont think it'll work. Best of luck.

Congrats I hope it works out. LDR's are hard to make work, even harder when trying to have a LTR as a LDR. I've tried that (with second ex when I had to live away for work for a cpl of years) but I think it drove more of a wedge that act as a sounding board.
