Long Distance Relationship
For the first 2 years my husband and I knew eachother, we lived in totally different countries, me in Japan and he in the U.S. and then Iraq, so we had lots of LDR experience! It helps to have an end in sight, like if you guys have a tentative date when you know you\'ll be together for good. That makes it easier to get through the times you miss eachother. Keep in contact however you can, via phone, webcam, snail mail or email, don\'t spare any time or expense in staying in touch. Above all, just hold on to the idea that you WILL be together and are committed to making it so, then the idea of not being together will seem ridiculous. There were times I felt awful when we were apart, but I just knew there was no other alternative. Would I rather break up with him? Heck no! That would have truly terrible. It can be rough, but if you make it through you will truly appreciate the time you have together, perhaps more so than couples who have always lived near eachother. We were reunited for good in January of \'05 and have been married nearly 3 years, and I still savor every day we\'re together because I remember how much it hurt to be apart for so long (longest stretch without seeing eachother in person: 10 months).
