Together Even Apart

Being in a relationship is always a wonderful thing. You find someone that makes you happy, smile uncontrollably, and most importantly someone who accepts you for everything that you are. Best of all they're your best friend. Of course when you find that person, you want to be with that person everyday. But what happens when you cant be? When that person lives hours or even states away? How do you feel? Many people are skeptical about long distance relationships, just as most people will always say, "it's never going to work." Well for the pas few months, I can honestly say, "it can work." My boyfriend and I have been fighting through the distance and although it's definitely not easy, it's worth it. The key to distance is to communicate. Since we don't get to see each other, except once a month, we make sure that we talk as much as we can. We may not always have important things to talk about but even the random conversations asking how each others day was or sending pictures of something funny we saw, it makes it seem as if we are close to each other even though we can't be. The second key to distance is trust. You have to trust your partner or else it definitely won't work. But truthfully, it's all worth it. Being apart for so long just makes it even better when you do get to see each other again.
