7 Things No One Tells You About Long Distance Relationships

[@lovemecom3832]

I agree having a long distance relationship is really hard, but it will make you appreciate the experience so much more and you will treasure and hold that experience in your heart until the next time you each other again.

[@saraanderson4507]

LoveMe,com Agreed!

[@jeremiaslopez3848]

Some people come in to our life for no reason and we can make everything for that person but not everyone have the same heart some of them just for interest or convenience so be careful with the distance relationship not all people is the same but not everyone have the same intention

[@NicoleEivissa]

❤️❤️❤️

[@meins-sr3ig]

I personally think that long distance relationships are more healthier than the short distance. As I think that it teaches us to be more patient for future things ect.... Not only patience but trust that is so important so we do not become jelous and selfish .

My parents had a long distance relationship during there 20's but finally got to live together around their 30's and got married and had kids. To all the people who say long distance relationships could never work. You just have to trust the person, be loyal to each other and truly love one another.

[@kaverirudrappa5000]

That's true but you gotta consider people who falls in love because of physical affection or connection.

[@ashwanijha7695]

The thing is, other side of your relationship cheats after 1 2 or 4 years. Now you blame yourself for trusting that person for so long

[@krazzyk848]

Im in a LDR myself and yes its not easy, but as long as you have really solid communication and can video call on a regular basis not just text, because at least with video calls yous can at least see each other, its not easy but for me shes worth it

[@saqibmudabbar]

I was in a long distance relationship, I used to go see her every weekend for 3years straight. Then I moved to her city, after a month she moved to another city for an year and she used to come see me every month. After a year, I moved to one city and then she followed and then we stayed together for three and a half years. Now next week I need to go back home for 3 months. Omg life is hard but it's so worth it. *It's* *worth* *not* *giving* *up.* *Trust* *me*

This, things like this is why I get so upset when people saying long distance relationships can never work. This is why. Beautiful things can come out of long distance relationships. Who are we to assume that our soulmate is right next door?

[@jeraldinepc17]

I’ve been in a LDR for 4 years now, the last time I saw my boyfriend was actually a few weeks ago but that was the first time we’ve seen each other in two years. I can definitely say it is hard, especially if you don’t have a job yet so no frequent visits. Really sucks but also worth it. As hard it is being in a LDR there is so many benefits to it such as communication, being able to just sit and talk to one another whether it be how your day is to deep conversations. Also seeing each other in person is so precious, I remember seeing my boyfriend again and being just filled with happiness and excitement. I cherished each moment we had together. Also LDR isn’t going to last forever. There will be a time when you two will decide to want to get married and honestly that is what I’m waiting for. So to all my fellow LDR out there hold on while you can!! Stick through it and next thing you know, you two will be together in person for good. :)

[@EchoOfSunshine]

I live in Germany and my boyfriend lives in Korea.. We met each other in Japan, while we were on a language exchange and spend a whole month together there. We've basically been seeing each other 24/7 a whole month! Saying goodbye was really hard, especially since we're both students and don't have that much money. We had no idea when we would see each other again. Two weeks later, he kind of surprised me by visiting me in Germany! It was just for 5 days, but we really enjoyed our time. We thought it would be a bit easier to say goodbye again. Surprise: It wasn't. It's been more than 50 days till I have last seen him and it will take a bit less than 50 days till I can see him again (I will visit him this time over new year). But althought we are living so far away, we talk every single day! We spend our weekends together, watching videos, playing video games or just studying and talking once in a while. Sometimes we have a videocall and we're just doing our stuff we have to do. It doesn't matter. As long as we know, that there's someone one the other side of that call loving us and being ready to spend his/her whole weekend with you. That really helped us with this kind of situation. Actually, the thing that annoys me the most, is the time difference, especially now in winter, when it's even more... Anyway, I definetly agree that it is really really REALLY hard, but we just make sure to always have time for the other and remind the other of how much we love each other. So yeah, everyone in a long distance relationship: We can do it! I know it!

Gosh Steven you just said everything that I never even put into words but feel all the time. Watching this was bittersweet cuz I know how hard it is but also how worth it (no pun intended) it really is. I think one of the hardest things is also being surrounded by people who dont understand, that tell you you cant really know the person, or that long distance relationships are doomed or arent "real" relationships, when really the two of you are stronger than most "normal" couples you know. You value each other that much more. It's just very comforting to know that other people are going through the same thing, so thank you.

[@The2years]

Here's my long distance story: My wife and I had a long distant relationship from 2005-2011 we didn't get married until June 2011 even then we were part until 2012 when I moved from Toronto, Canada to California....during the long distance I only got to see her physically 1 time a year every June for 3 weeks. But we did FaceTime every night at 9pm eastern standard time and 6pm her time for 3hours....we did not celebrate Valentine's Day together until 2011...Christmas only once....birthday only once.....even with all that we've been together for 11years this coming June. Long distance works al long as both parties dedicate time to speak with each other...trust...and commitment to each other.

[@Sara-we7jm]

I am married to my former long-distance girlfriend. We would go up to 5 months without seeing each other, for four years and three months - which includes nine months waiting after we got married (for her to finish college). She is my best friend, whom I can share anything with and it was all worth it. Of course, it was hard - really hard at times - but, honestly, we knew we would make it from the beginning and God definitely strengthened us and helped us through it. The key is not to forget what it took!

I've been with my boyfriend for 2.5 years and we have lived 2 hours away from each other the whole relationship and let me tell you it DOES make you so strong and connected. We have such a level of trust and a very very deep love and appreciation for each other that i know we developed through distance. For obvious reasons it sucks, but every time we see each other, its a cheesy running embrace followed by feeling supper sappy and in love the whole time. If you just got into a relationship like this don't be afraid. It doesn't have to hurt- you can do it :) (also sexting is fun and a major key bye)

[@eod25]

2 hours isn't long distance....

[@Antonia-hv6iz]

It really depends. 2 hours can feel the same as 10 hours if you don't have a car or money for a plaine/train ticket. It's a lot about where ou live and what kind of circumstances exist.

[@Antonia-hv6iz]

i'm sorry but you are missing the point of what i was trying to say. Of course people witth a smaller distance usually can see eachother more often and it's way easier, but some people don't have the time or the money and each of this will result in the other. I'm working next to school to pay my rent and it's extremely hard to make free one weekend a month to visit my boyfriend. It's even more frustrating because you know that the distance isn't that big but it still wont work.

[@christopherbowers6438]

Hey, I've been in my relationship for three months almost four. He lives four and a half hours away from me. I just spent a month at his house during the summer.

[@mistycuz2011]

I did that for a year when my husband and I were still just dating. I would fly to see him once a month for a few days, but for real seeing eachother in the airport was always the moment I knew it was always worth it! He is in the military and we are on our second deployment together and it's so hard but I feel like the long distance stuff made it so much more easier dealing with it.

[@jocelynthao]

I am in a long distance relationship for 6 years. The beginning is hard because you can’t see them but you get used to it. It makes me appreciate the time that I get by myself as well the time I am with my boyfriend. It’s also hard when there are times you are at your lowest that you need them right now.

[@Duckwithadarkpast]

are you still in the relationship?

[@alexd.2610]

Tried LDR after 4 years of being single and on/off chatting with guys online. I've never clicked with a guy this much, almost lost all hope with dating sites. He messaged me on July 28 and after a week, he booked a roundtrip ticket from canada to here in cebu, philippines. I can't wait to see him on January

[@EZT3CHGamingScamperFever]

So accurate! My boyfriend lives in Paris and here i am in Quebec. It's extremely hard but let's say that you can feel the love deeper. I guess its because of the fact that you give more importance to the little moments together.

[@Shaziara]

i'm actually tearing up because of watching this video. All you said is on point, man! It's almost felt better not to meet up with our half, because it's dreadful thinking that we have to say goodbye. AGAIN. :'(

[@xPurity]

I've been in a long distance relationship for over 4 years now, and it is true that it doesn't get easier, you just get stronger every time you part with your other half. It's hard in a way that every meeting is like falling in love but knowing you'll get your heart break when you part, so for me a part of me kinda tries to protect myself and not get so attached, but that harms the relaitonship as you're putting up a barrier to prevent yourself from the genuine feelings. But if these relationship work, it's true that they are very healthy and both people have developed strong communication skills and incredible commitment. Not gonna lie, there are LOTS of sacrifices involved when you try to plan time to do something together or talk on the phone when is convenient for the other person.

[@anzutate8860]

I met my bf when I was 14 he was 15. Now I'm 20 and he's 21 we have been in a long distance relationship for 6 years and finally by the end of February 2017 we are moving in together.

[@iwakeupat6]

I've had some people come up to me to ask advice on long-distance relationships because I was in it for almost 5 years, and I ask them "Do you love them? Have you actually said 'I love you' to them?" and suggest not doing long-distance. Because you can't do long-distance if you don't love them and if they don't know you love them. And when I tell them don't do it, I'm not trying to discourage the couple, more like test them. If they decide that their relationship isn't going to last the distance, they'll break up and that's that. But if they hear my advice and still feel like they love each other enough and still really want to work it out, it'll make them stubborn and hardworking to keep their relationship going, almost as if to prove me wrong. It's actually really nice to see couples who survive the long-distance coming to me and say "See, you were wrong!" :)

[@madikat9021]

“Trying to not think about when it’s over” yes, definitely the key.

[@Sustainabledoula]

4 years of long distance. Longest separation time was 7 months. We are now living together. Our relationship totals 5 1/2 years now.

congratulations. this is everyone's end goal. ❤

this is exactly me. celebrating 5 years in June! but long distance for 4. although I see her every 4 months or so. glad to see all the comments filled with people doing long distance. not alone!!

Woah, I thought this was a vlog from Steven's channel before saw the intro! Aw, glad to see Steven and Ying's story shared here :) Long distance is bittersweet 😞

[@anewloveofficial9137]

Being in a long distance relationship is so hard because of the many temptations that will come along the way but if you continue to love each other and takes every effort to end that distance I'm sure you will get a long lasting relationship in the future.

[@Artemisia494]

lol she seemed so unexcited when they first met at the airport

Distance makes the heart grow fonder and make you miss and appreciate each other more and thats what I call love 💓

[@kelseyleigh9645]

Long distance is so hard. What some people don't talk about is how hard it can actually be. When I'm with my boyfriend in person I have what every relationship involves but I have it with the person I fly to the other side of the world for. There are times when my boyfriend see's it as waiting for something he should have and not have to work so hard for. But as soon as we're together it's all worth it. Two years later he's finally moving to me and even that's hard. No one should have to leave their friends and family to have a normal relationship and I hate that he has to make that sacrifice for this to work. But you only have one soul mate and we both know that if we gave up we'd never get over each other. It would always be one of those what if situations. After all the hard times and fights because of the distance making things so hard, our life together is finally in arms reach. Just four weeks until he lands and we're officially living together, in the same country, in the same timezone. 1600km apart at the moment but I wouldn't trade him for anyone else in the world.

It can work! I have done long distance for 4 years now and I am getting married and moving in next year! I di believe it makes a relationship stronger and you cherish every moment sooo nuch

[@TheHardRage13]

I feel you guys all the way.. Im studying in Denmark while my gf is from Taiwan, we met here in Denmark while she came for exchange program, weve been almost 3 months apart and i can say that it was unbelievably painful to leave her the day to the bus station... But when you realise the deeper benefits of it, and if you see somewhere an opportunity to be together in the future, it changes you completely. I became more self confident, i realised that this is not a loss, but an opportunity for my future, focusing all i got on my studies and putting all effort into being with her one day. She will come the same time next summer. Advice, for those who already accepted this challange: feel how much you love a person, everyday know your goal and know what you need to do to achieve it. Work for it. Just the same as if you try to train for a competition, the result feels incredible and you feel happy. The same with your loved one, it will be the best sensation of your life, i know it!

[@illuminari]

This is so relatable. I’ve been in a LDR with my girlfriend since 2016 and we’ve only been able to see each other once a year since due to school and work etc. It sucks and it’s really hard but the payoff of waiting is so great. Time together really feels extra extra special. Goodbyes are always the worst though, especially when you don’t know when you’ll see each other next :(

My hubby and I did long-distance while I loved in California for a year. He flew out twice to surprise me (2nd time he proposed) and I flew home to Chicago a hand full of times for the holidays and a family wedding. We couldn’t see each other enough. Grateful we were able to fly out so many times. But yeah, there were a lot of nights when I would cry myself to sleep and hug his t-shirt that had his cologne on it. You do what you gotta do.

My boyfriend and I have been long distance for about 6 months now and it SUCKS but i do see him at least once a month even if its just for a day. Hes not that far away but its like an 8 hour travel just to see him for a weekend, then 8 hours back which sucks but a lot of people don't consider it "long distance" because he's just a few states away. I don't think its the actual amount of distance that matters, its the fact that you don't get to be with the person you love everyday while seeing other couples pretty much living together. welp, a little more than 4 years till we can finally live together :/

[@kingdomheartsanime46]

One thing that people who aren't in a long distance don't understand, is how pain full it is. I am currently in one and we are sadly unable to visit each other so it's way harder than it normally is.

[@LaTripper]

he seems so much more into her than she is to him

[@shutyotrapgurl]

I think she simply acts that way because she's in front of a camera - she doesn't seem very comfortable, while Steve is. Which is pretty reasonable seeing their different lives and jobs.

[@nguyenkaitlyn6364]

yes i do think the same way. you cant possibly say that she doesnt love him as much as he does by the way she reacts. its silly

[@caryncarmona9229]

LaTripper maybe shes just camera shy

[@flylikechi6]

She is probably not into him because of all the other missed opportunity she can have with local relationships

[@leolk6735]

Actually not, I also like her, that kind of person doesn’t show all the emotion or being sweet most of the time. But actually I did really really care about my boyfriend, always think about him or cry when I miss him so much.

[@Alaudelara]

being in a long distance relationship right now, I know exactly what you're talking about. what sucks even more for me though is the fact that I can't take a plane to see my boyfriend because it's too expensive, it's getting too expensive to drive the 10 hours it would take to get there (20 for my mom because she'd have to drive there and back just to drop me off), plus, we have school which makes it so we can't see each other for months at a time =/ the last time I saw him was 4 or 5 months ago, in November. it's really hard, but it's all going to be worth it after we graduate c:

[@SillyGoos]

See, long distance relationships can work. A lot of people saying doesn't work, but I think because it's just a lot of commitment

[@andjelanikolic1010]

Probably because long distance relationships require much more commitment than ordinary ones do. People are afraid that they are going to meet someone more beautiful, smarter who likes them back. Not to mention how hard it is to see each other after 6 months.
