I don't feel why I feel so nervous sharing this with you guys, but I thought I'd chip in my two cents on being in an long distance relationship. An LDR is tough, but so rewarding when you know you love each other. ❤

[@lovelypacific]

Thanks for sharing this all in one video! Your very brave❤️❤️❤️

[@Giovirosas]

+clothesencounters It was beautiful!

[@charmaiinem5071]

+clothesencounters oh my heart 😭 that was the cutest thing ever! relationship goals x100 😁💕

[@herbeauty420]

And you're so right.. It is so rewarding 💜

[@MayCho]

Thank you so much for sharing this, Jenn. I could honestly feel your nervousness and heartfelt drive behind three words. 💕

[@keninglee]

I feel you. My boyfriend and I had LDR for three years (US and Malaysia). One time we didn't meet each other for 14 months. Now we meet once two months and going to end this LDR.... Because we are getting married in December !! 😘

[@LolitaFairytale]

+Kening Lee Congratulations! :)

Congratulations

[@emmaccameron]

Loved this video. I was in a LDR for 5 years while we were in college and then grad school. We went from being in New York/Boston (which wasn't too bad, we got to see each other about once a month), then Italy/Australia (we didn't see each other for about 6 months and rarely had the ability to talk on the phone - it was all about sending letters and postcards), and most recently Scotland/Boston while I was getting my Master's degree abroad (and we didn't see each other for a year except when he came to visit me at Xmas). We just moved in together in August and are getting married in June! It's really all worth it when you know you love each other. It's still hard for me to believe that I don't have to countdown the days we have left to be together anymore, it's the most amazing feeling to now know I'll see him everyday.

[@Crystalbomb321]

This made me smile and also tear up a tiny bit. Bf wants to to head overseas for his career by end of Feb. don't know what will happen, but just feel pretty cut up about it. So happy it ended up working out for you in the end.

[@emmaccameron]

+Lily G Thank you so much! It is really hard, but definitely possible if you work at it. I wish all the best for you!

[@drey3866]

Hey Emma!! Do you happen to still be active?? I would love to talk to you about your LDR as I'm in a very similar situation!! Thanks heaps in advance x

[@TabiBerry1740]

I wanna hear more about your story on how you did LDR through college. My boyfriend and I are doing that right now. He lives back home in Kentucky and I've moved to Missouri for school. It wasn't so bad because on breaks and holidays I could go home and stay with my parents and see him, but recently my family moved closer to me here in Missouri which is greattt, but made me miss him even more. After I graduate, I want to move back home, because I miss my own town but also to be closer to him, but I want to take these last couple years in college to see if that's realllyyyy what I want. Made made you decide to keep traveling the world and finish your schooling instead of settle down somewhere with him?

[@lucymoon]

This made me cry in the best kind of way

[@Roza-pz2gu]

Just clicked on you and legit fell in love with your channel 😧❤️❤️ You are so different in a good way 💪🏻

Amen girl! Long distance is hard, but with the right person it is worth it. I have been in an LDR for 4 years now and we are getting married this summer! :D The time when we can be together and not separate is near!!!!!!!!!

[@tvxyzn]

+Christy Beauty Wow, congratulations :)

Congratulations!

[@crystalianike]

+Christy Beauty I just starting LDR :(

[@HollyyB79]

My parents were in a long distance relationship. My mom is from Canada and my dad from England. The craziest thing is back then they didn't have Skype, the most that they could talk was once a month because long distance calls cost so much. But they are still married and it just goes to show that if you are meant to be you will find a way to make it work.

[@ChloeTing]

This is beautiful.

[@weylie_hoang]

I love this, I love this, I love this!! You two are so adorable together and I love hearing your perspective on LDR. Sending this to my sister who is in a LDR right now! She's gonna love it :)

[@imjennim]

+ilikeweylie Aww! Thanks so much, Weylie! Sending love to you and your sister!

[@CollieDing]

+clothesencounters I was wondering, are you and Ben thinking about moving in with eachother some day? :D

[@Leona656]

@@imjennim 💬I went to Oakland where I took a seat, & Weylie came to my room, though.

[@annaleeandjesse]

100% accurate. So well done. (we were in a LRD for a year as well!)

[@imjennim]

+annaleeandjesse Love you guys! ❤

[@d.w.1805]

Before watching this I was fine w/ being single

[@janebovary3560]

Don't be sad. focus on yourself. take this time to discover who you are and try to become the best version of yourself. you have all your life to be married etc.

[@Joseph3391399]

Thanks, really need these words right now

[@reaclarisse]

I watch this everytime my LDR gets a little hard and it's a great little reminder why it's worth it

[@AnnemariePaq]

same

[@briannakendall]

My boyfriend and I lived 4,563 miles away from each other. Newcastle, England is 6 hours ahead of Dallas. I managed to say good night to him every night and tell him I loved him. We had to break up a week ago today, because the distance was just so hard for two people who loved each other as much as we did. It was the worst breakup i've ever had. Not because someone cheated, or because we hated each other. It was hard because...we just had to be okay with letting each other go because we realized we were not the best thing for the other person. I love him dearly. Thank you for the best 209 days of my life.

[@valeriacastroarbieto4260]

+DoseOf Maya same happened to me, we dated for 1 year and 8 months, but he had to move out to the other side of the country (Canda : I am in Québec he is in British Columbia) which is 3 085 miles away. and 3 hours of difference. It wasn't easy. It's been 2 months since he moved out, and he decided to give up on us... :/ it was still the best experience of my life

[@already8use]

+DoseOf Maya Same happened to me , it's the hardest because the reason why you have to break had nothing to do with him cheating on you . Nothing to do with you loving him less . Because you love each other , so much and you decide to not be selfish . Because chances are you could have ruin you relationship by doing a ldr . You love each other enough to know that you have to let go . And it might not be clear today , and you might feel like you're losing something that could have been amazing . But you just know that it's the right thing to do . I mean I'm talking about experience . And you're supposed to move on , but how can you do that when there is nothing to hate about him .. It's a process

[@cassiebeauty947]

I too live in Dallas and am in an LDR with an amazing guy in Northern England. I can only imagine what you're going through right now; breakups are so difficult, let alone ldr breakups. I've been blessed to be with my guy for almost 9 months now, and although it's been difficult getting through not so great relationships, I've truly met Mr. Right, and I know you will too. Things take time to heal, but I know you'll find just as an amazing guy as you once dated. :)

[@briannakendall]

+cassiebeauty947 i'm very glad you two are in such a loving relationship. And wow, Dallas and North England?! What a coincidence.

[@SweetsLuvMusicx3]

+DoseOf Maya Omg this happened to me too. We broke up exactly for the same reason and I've never felt this much pain before. Even though we broke up a month ago... I can't help but think about him everyday and it's horrible because he's already in a new relationship. Anyways, I hope we both find the right guy one day :) I don't regret meeting him at all and although he might have cheated on me or was not fully committed to me like everyone said, i understand.

[@easyNeon]

i've been in a LDR for almoust 2 years now, i actually love him more and more each when we see each other❤

[@prchd28]

Omg I love your video! :D

[@yahairamartinezo5436]

I love your video

[@urbanwit]

+easyNeon LD is actually good fuel for love, not taking anything for granted, and staying in the moment!

[@imaujxx]

Hi, Diana!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@madymorrison]

This is so lovely. Makes me sad and happy at the same time. You guys are adorable!

[@RBeeMedia]

+Mady Morrison "Sad and happy", coming from a guy in a LDR, that's literally the definition of it. Definitely more happy than sad though !

[@maligna007]

I am in a long distance relationship, and apparently I couldn't get any further away from this person phisicaly, I am in Mexico and he is in Australia, we have been in this relationship for over a year and it's been a rollercoaster. however we talk everyday, not at any specific moment, we just call each other all the time (we have 7 hours of difference), and I know perfectly the counting time thing that you are talking about. But we made a commitment and next year we are moving in together because we are going to start our wedding planning. Different languages, different cultures and very long distance relationships can work. Don't let people dictate who you fall in love with just because you don't live in the same time zone!!! thanks for sharing.

[@wildfern]

This video is so beautiful Jenn. I have been in a long distance relationship for almost two years now and you perfectly captured all of the emotions that I routinely go through. The countdown part is so relevant and accurate. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful and emotional video and piece of your personal life

[@sarahhtran]

I agree with every word you've said in this video! I am also in a long distance relationship with my bf. He works all over the United States. Fortunately, the next two weeks I get to spend with him in LA :) loved this video Jenn! xx

[@seoulemotional]

+sarahhtranTV SAME! My boyfriend only lives in the next town over, but we both dont have our own means of transportation so we see take the train to see eachother when we can, but with work and school it's really hard! Good luck to the two of you!

[@sarahhtran]

+Julie Abigail ♡ Even though yours may technically be a mid distance, it probably feels like long distance since you don't have the time to meet up everyday! :) Stay strong and best of luck to you two too! x I actually feel like my bf and I have grown stronger in our relationship since he's taken this job a year and a half ago! And we've dated for almost 4 and lived together for a year at one point!

[@seoulemotional]

+sarahhtranTV that's awesome!! Hopefully my bf and I can get to that point. I do think LDR make us stronger too. We've been together over a year now and have always been far apart, so I guess we appreciate each other more since we don't have the luxury of taking a small date for granted or something little like going out during the week :)

[@cacatua9667]

"I didn't planned to be in a Long Distance Relationship, but love finds you in unexpected places"

[@IamLuckyyy]

I can totally connect with you on this. I've been in a LDR for over 7 years now. I too am always counting down the days to when I get to see him again. Doing that now actually, seeing him in a month and we are finally going to live together now. LDR do get tough but it does make you appreciate your relationship more and teaches you patience and all kinds of things. Love has no distance. You guys are lovely together, I really enjoyed this video. It's a nice feeling seeing so many LDR work out :)

[@faithkariuki4015]

You can hear the little smiles in the breaths she takes. I love that.

[@YouToo714]

Thanks for this video Jen. I'm in a LDR right now. A relationship of 3 years and over a year and a half of not seeing each other. This video hit right where it hurts in a good way

[@imjennim]

+Shaira Puello Thanks for watching, Shaira! I really wish the best of luck to you and your other half. Hang in there. ❤

[@YouToo714]

+clothesencounters thank you so much!!!!

[@meghanhughes]

why did i start tearing up? this was so lovely.

[@johannamae3164]

I totally agree with everything in this video. I have been in a long distance relationship for 5 years now and it was crazy, sad, exciting, depressing, fun, frustrating, independent, lonely, inspiring and all kinds of emotion. After five 5 years, my boyfriend which now my husband is finally able to come over here in USA. We conquered LDR. This is such an amazing and inspiring video for everyone especially those in LDR.

[@SeveralScreamingCats]

I've been in an LDR for 2 and a half years and I just sobbed watching this video. Thank you so much for making this. In 17 days I'm seeing my boyfriend again and I cannot wait for it because the distance keeps getting harder every time. I really needed this video today.

[@Gylfwhale]

This is a gorgeous love letter to both long distance relationships and Ben. It made me pretty damn emotional. One of my favourite things I've read about relationship in general is "There are over seven billion people in the world and you expect your soul mate to live right around the corner?" Long distance relationships are valid and they're hard and I commend both you and Ben for making this work. You both inspire a lot of people.

[@dpeltm]

I love how you started off with a negative tone and gradually sounded more happy as you got to the positive aspects of it, showing that LDR is not always a bad thing if you know the right way to approach it. Wish you two happiness~

[@KenyaMilan]

Omg why did this make me cry lolll 😍😍😍

I wonder if she cried editing or if he cried watching

+Kenya Milann i just don't understand why

+Yaka Ri u guys keep commenting on your own comments

[@emilyjones362]

I have never seen anyone create such a beautiful video and explaining it as beautiful as you did. truly refreshing to know that someone feels the way I do and can put it into words

[@Luckywynne]

I don't know how, Jenn, but somehow you always seem to show the special moments of your life in the coolest way possible. Such a sweet video, great job and good luck!

[@r0na]

I really needed this video so thank you Jenn! I asked for an LDR tips video and delivered! My BF and I are currently long distance for a year and it's been a difficult transition for me because we've been together for over 9years. I'm learning about everything you said in this video about independence and how important that is too. So even though it's really hard sometimes, I really appreciate you sharing your experience Jenn. TY so so much.

[@r0na]

*and you delivered

[@wiredjustright]

this made me smile and my heart ache. it's nice to see this poetic side of you, even though I enjoy your makeup and fashion videos.

[@almiramanapat1448]

This romance was perfectly narrated in a non-cheesy way. Applaud you Jen for sticking into it. All the best to you and Ben!

[@mcrXalana]

The good thing about being in a LDR is that it makes you totally appreciate everything about the other person like the way they smell or the way they stroke your thumb when holding your hand- all the things you might take for granted or might not notice if you got to experience these things around the clock if you aren't long distance.

[@ThereSheGoess]

Aw Jenn, I love this side of you how you open up with this! Long distance is really tough especially if you're a plane ride away 😔 you two are so strong and long distance will only make you guys stronger!!! 💪🏻

[@HaileighTomlinson]

This is why I adore you Jenn. You're so down to earth and real about everything.

[@onthevlam2131]

I am in a LDR and still watch this video from time to time and it always makes me cry. Thank you for making this Jenn 💕

[@annielengo]

Watch this after they're engaged OMG 👏🏻😘

[@philchao]

no matter how good or bad the relationships are, the one inescapable fact about ALL LDRs is that they are very expensive =(

[@Satiiisfaction]

I've watched this about 8 times and I still cry everytime. This is so relatable. On point, Jenn.

[@cuesitiondedibujotec]

Thank you for making a video on LDRs! I feel like all of us going through them find comfort in listening to other people talk about theirs... as not many people do. You made my day.

[@aishiranghae]

Honestly this is just what I needed right now. It's tough ... but you just have to know that you're doing the right thing for your relationship. He's 8 hours ahead and 6000 miles away, but only 2 months to go until I can see him again ❤

[@milja2360]

My girlfriend and I have been in an LDR for about two and a half years now. The last time I saw her in person was over a year ago, and we probably won't be able to see each other for another year. It's especially hurtful because her parents don't accept us and when I flew across the continent to meet her we had to see each other in secret. But for some reason I can't imagine my life without her. I suppose you can't commit to such a difficult relationship without really loving the person you're with. It makes me so happy seeing you two together. Stay strong, guys.

[@subinga3443]

Your voice says it all how much you love him and how patient you are to this LDR. You're amazing and you two are so lovely together! I know the feels and I just hope you guys will be having a happy ending! Wish you two all the bests x !!!

[@MissSoccerGrl]

I needed this video so much, I'm currently in a long distance relationship and it's definitely tough. You said it perfectly. LDR's are a countdown of when you'll see the other person next. Honestly, from your Instagram posts you make it look so easy. I just hope this gets easier. It's starting to weigh on me.

[@boredstephanie]

This is so sweet and so accurate. I was in an LDR for about a year. Granted we weren't super far away from each other so we got to see each other for a weekend every few weeks but it was still really hard to go from living with each other to that. I was always counting down the days until I could see him and we skyped everyday after I got off from work :) I was always so excited to see him again and would carefully pick out my outfits for the weekend with him. Even uneventful weekends together were fun just because he was there with me. The hardest part was saying goodbye again until my next visit. I always missed him so bad that first day away from him. I am so happy I got into a pharmacy school close by so that now we could live together again

[@alidiaz2339]

This was such a beautifully put together video! Your soothing voice got me all emotional 😭 beautiful relationship ❤️

[@livihutt]

You sharing this touched my heart and also made me tear up a little. My relationship suddenly turned into a LDR once we both went away to college & any chance I get to see him gives my butterflies, makes me absolutely happy, & allows me to cherish what time we do get to spend together. I feel like if we can make it through the distance, we can make it through anything and come out stronger because of it.

[@elizabethbarrera3402]

I've been in a LDR with my boyfriend for about a year and four months now. This video really hit home because I could connect to the anxiety/excitement/happiness/etc that you get when you are in a LDR. The rides to his city (9 hours from Toronto to Timmins!), the festivals, the nights at home watching movies, walking through the woods! Jen, you described it perfectly! :)

[@Sandaisy]

This video felt so personal and you guys are so cute. Beautiful video! 😙

[@suridiary]

This is all so true.. I was in LDR for 6 years and I took a big step to quit my job and stay near him a year ago. It felt so right, and honestly, sometimes I miss the butterflies I had in my stomach whenever I was about to see him. Now we cant be apart, and yes I have become clingy now that I have him around because I had to do stuff all by myself for 6 years! Lol he doesnt mind he want to do stuff for me.

[@audreyfloch9551]

You've just said what nobody understood in my life more than a year ago. The pain, the loneliness, the love, the joyce, the time,... I wish you the best ♡

[@Liierenify]

I´m so glad you made that video! It´s so sincere and honest, and the watcher can really "feel" you saying it. That´s awesome! Also, as a person who´s been in long distance relationships... you´re completely on point. And sidenote - the love you two have seems amazing! I hope it´ll stay with you forever!

[@ArikaSato]

OMG THIS IS BEAUTIFUL!!!! I love you jen!! You are always so sweet and happy and seeing this side of you made me cry!! You and your bf are so cute! #relationshipgoals for sure :) XOXO

[@user-oh7gx6te1h]

Who is from 2021? I watch this video and I have tears 🥲You guys are so incredible. I am so happy for you ❤️

[@userplay305]

Meeee

[@megory]

what a beautiful video, jenn! I was in an LDR for several years and your narrative touched me so much! my boyfriend and I became too accustomed to the excitement and anticipation of our LDR, and when he moved in we fell apart. without the planning and anxiety and build-up of traveling and holidays, our relationship alone wasn't "enough." this video reminds me of our relationship so much, but of the good parts. thanks, jenn, and warm wishes to you both!

[@awexabiancs]

Jenn, you're such an amazing & strong person. Couples in a LDR always doubt themselves because they always think the worse & just give up, but you opened up a perspective to those who are doubting their love & given them hope in their relationship. Props my love!

[@sarikathakorlal]

I was in an LDR with the love of my life for 4 years, and you describe it perfectly, shit is tough. But, 6 years later I am about to be able to call this special guy my husband. All that turmoil was always worth the wait.... XXXXXX

[@citraaulia6065]

I can relate to this, Jenn. I'm in a long distance relationship too. I'm Indonesian and he's Australian. Last June, we finally met each other in real life for the first time... after 5 years. Yes, 5 looong years. It was indescribable, the feelings of finally be able to see him in person, it was everything. All I can say is that it's worth the wait and the effort. Well I know most people say that long distance relationships don't work, but hey.. if you love each other then just give it a try.

[@cutepinksocks]

This was so beautiful. You and Ben are an inspiring example on LDR.. You guys got love, trust, independence, fun..., love it

[@EuniceGohmusic]

Hi Jen, i have been watching your channel for fashion makeup lifestyle tips for quite a number of years and i really love your energy and genuineness in all your videos!! Can't help but to leave my very first comment on KZbin here. This is such an honest and personal sharing from you, I really respect your openness. Only those who have been or currently in a LDR will truly understand the joys and pains of an LDR. It truly does mess with your head sometimes, especially when the longing increases. My boyfriend and I met on a holiday, then we got into a long distance for 2 years (we were 7 hours flight apart) and have recently closed the gap to live in the same city. Glad to finally stop supporting the airlines so actively haha! Wish you and Ben all the best, you'll get there! ;) Be strong!

[@ClarizMarielle]

I'm in an LDR for almost a year now and I've never met him before. I really dont know how he did it. But i fell inlove with a guy living 800 km away from me. Whenever i talk about him, i get these stupid questions and face expressions. downgrading my choice.. it kinda hurts me. . they ask me, why i would choose a stranger so far away, when there are plenty of guys in my city? simple answer. if you fall in love, you fall in love. it is really hard to make it as normal as possible but all these extra efforts, to make your lover feel loved, makes it even more special. everybody thinks a good relationship is about physical interaction, which is of course very important. but the real fundament of a good relationship is communication. lots of it. nobody understands that if HE wasnt worth waiting for or worth it in general, i wouldnt stay with him. they think of me as a stupid little girl who doesnt know about love. they thought it wouldnt last. but here i am almost a year with him and still super happy waiting for the day i can finally hold him in my arms. PS: this video made me even more excited to reach that step of finally meeting him. LOOOOOOVED the journal! youre amazing jenn..

[@bhavana6217]

Clariz omg! Are you still together???

[@LittleWendy6]

Honestly this made me tear up...

[@BH-he3wg]

I watched this video when you first uploaded it and thought it was sweet, but now I am watching it again one year into my long distance relationship and its crazy how much i relate now!!!!!

[@TheAnikuccia]

Dear Jenn! Thank you for sharing this! Can relate 100 procent with you, my boyfriend and I has also been in a LDR for a year. As hard as it is, I agree with you there is something beautiful and comforting knowing your relationship is something beyond physical attraction! Thanks again for sharing and being an inspiration! Lots of love from Denmark

[@MelDiaz1995]

This is so beautiful. I feel the same way because I'm in a ldr too. It's hard sometimes but is so worth it if you're meant to be ♡

[@anneranee]

Big hugs, Jen.

[@UlaandJosh]

This is such a gorgeous video Jenn! I am not in a long distant relationship but I do live apart from many of my friends and family members. Over the past 26 years I have lived in 3 countries and around 6 major cities! It is tough being away from the ones you love. Right now I am in Paris and am away from my parents, two of my sisters and many many friends scattered all over the place. But you are spot on! It forces you to be independent, work on your own things, get to know yourself sooooo incredibly well and become your own best friend !

[@Nikki.....]

I really loved that part when you said "knowing that every day hour and minute that passes , you are that much closer to seeing them". it literally made me cry

[@oekakinin]

Ive been in an LDR for 8 years. I'm from the US and he's from Europe. I've been very independent and feel weird when someone tries to cater towards me. It's like you're single yet you're not sometimes. Your video is completely true and I can totally empathize with you. I've known him since I was 17; now I'm turning 27 next month. He's seen my reaction when I got accepted into undergraduate school and came over for my graduation ceremony as a pharmacist. He's still studying and sometimes it's hard to date someone who's still in a different stage in their life as you are. I hope everything works out for you and Ben.

[@shahadjz2]

This made me wanna cry and I am not even in a long distance relationship ahhhh Jen

[@claireejohnson25]

You're a beautiful soul Jenn, thank you for being so vulnerable with us viewers.

@clothesencounters I can 100% understand how you feel. I was in a LDR for years with my honey and it was tough when I was in college and trying to balance everything. But that feeling you get when you haven't seen them for a while and you get to see them again is priceless. Now we are finally living together. Patience is key!

Thanks jenn for shedding some light onto this topic. I'm not in an official LDR but I've been emotionally connected with a close and intimate person who lives in US (I'm in Australia). It's difficult because we know the tough effects that long distances have on relationships even though we talk everyday

[@CarinaandZara]

What a brilliant video! I have so much respect for people who are in LDRs, wishing you and Ben all the happiness in the world!!

[@EricaSager]

this is the cutest thing ever, I'm smiling so hard now :) beautiful video! x

[@unazukins]

I'm in a LDR for almost 3-4 years now. We will finally end this LDR relationship later this year because we are finally getting married! That comes with a price though.... I will have to leave family and friends to live with him. I guess without one person making a sacrifice, it will lead to nowhere when constantly being on different continents. My previous relationship broke off because of LDR as both my ex and I didn't want to move... But this time, I'm glad my fiancé and I made it work! :)

[@PKBYLDR]

+unazukins Congrats! :*

[@jaydeepeed]

Being in an LDR, this is extremely relatable from start to end. I feel you girl, this pulled so hard on my heart strings.

[@TheCalendarfish]

I'm gonna show this video to my boyfriend because we're 1 year down with 3 more to go until we're both done with uni on different continents. To everyone else in long -distance relationships, all the best! Long distance isn't the end of a relationship, it's just a really big test. If your love can conquer time and space, it probably means something seriously good!

[@ChelseaandNick]

Awh this was beautiful

[@AyahElleOfficial]

aw Jenn you sound like you are about to cry. D; wishing you and ben and every other couple in LDR best of luck.

[@allisonbchen]

This reminds me so much of when I was in a ldr for 4 years while in college, we did end up breaking up because we we're still growing into our own. The video resonated with me and all the feelings I had in the relationship. Thank you for sharing!

[@caranicolestock550]

This has to be my favorite video of yours- I love how vulnerable you are! The music tugs at my heart strings and your voice sounds genuine and raw.

[@BreenyLee]

Loved this, so precious

[@sorevelink5144]

Awww it's so cute!!! And your boyfriend seems really loyal to you! I wish I can find someone like that.

[@wewilldogood]

[@chescacruz19]

[@PKBYLDR]

+CHSCLARA me too!

[@travelbesttips1]

im not ashamed to admit i cried a little bit

[@tongcai6570]

Oh my goodness Jenn... Your video made me so emotional because it is exactly how I feel, every word you said! I have been a an LDR for 2 years now and this spoke to me more than anything. Thank you for making this video, letting me know that I am not alone in how I feel, and also shedding a positive light on LDR's, making it known that it IS worth it when you find the right person xx

[@hannahwilkinson540]

This is such a heart warming video Jenn, LDR's are hard like you've said but it almost makes me crave one because of the way you phrase the feelings. You and Ben are a beautiful couple.
