Long distance relationship advice?

my boyfriend lives in a different state to me, but luckily it's on the same side of the country. i get to see him soon, but its in about 20 or so days. its getting really hard for both of us, but i love him so theres no way in hell im ending it.


does anyone have any ideas how we can survive the last few days, and the time after that?

being in the military, i've learned to do the long distance thing, as much as it sucks...





you gotta be realistic about it first of all... you can't expect too much and don't get your hopes up on your ';future'; with that person... just go with the flow. if it's meant to be, it'll happen.. with work of course, but that doesn't at all mean you have to force it.





contact every day, even if it's once a day really helps... webcam or phone where you can see each other or hear each other's voices. txts and emails in between are good too. (of course, in the military, that's not always possible)





it's also good for both of you to have something of each other or something meaningful to the relationship, or that simply reminds each of you of the other..





enjoy every second you have together and make the best of it always... try reeeeally hard not to fight, especially over the petty stuff, it's just not worth it. you want to have a good time so you have that to think about and the next visit to motivate you until the next one.





i think the biggest thing would be not to lose yourself and not to revolve your life around the calls and visits... keep busy between visits and focus on yourself. it helps time fly and it keeps you grounded, as well as satisfied with your life so that the other person is a bonus, and makes it better rather than BEING your life (and it being miserable when you're apart) it also makes it easier to let go once it's time, if that happens.Long distance relationship advice?
faith is everything and by the looks of it you have a lot of it. i just hope your boyfriend has the same. if you both love each other and keep in touch on the phone it will go well. you can also use this program skype.com which helps you talk to them and look at them at the same time. I been through a relationship like yours expect my girl was in Europe and it was much harder believe me. you have to trust and believe, and in time it will only get better.
My girlfriend's been in Hawaii over the holidays and we're both going CRAZY. We've been IMing for hours at a time every day but it's really not the same. I suggest that you both get a webcam. They're not expensive and you can download and use Skype for free video chat.
