Happy Monday everyone! Are you in a long distance relationship?

To all LDR couples like us STAY STRONG.....STAY STRONG

thank you for this. instead of being afraid they're cheating though, i'm afraid that their feelings will vanish eventually since we're not together in person..

1) meaningful gift (teddy bear, nightlights, hoodies) 2) know their schedule 3) have trust 4) quality communication (instead of over texting try to have meaningful conversation) 5) make time to see each other 6) embrace the challenges together

I’m in a long distance relationship while attending Med school. One of the most important elements of a successful relationship is that you need to be physically and emotionally well yourself rather than relying on your partner for love and attention to heal. You need two whole pieces to make a full piece of love.

I never thought my first relationship would be a long distance relationship but I’m not complaining💕💕

To all the people in LDR... I wish you all a happy and easy LDR full of joy and great moments I hope you all manage to be with your soul mate and have a great life together

I’m in a distant relationship as well, it’s not easy I won’t lie, especially with insecurities. But the one thing I can say to make it better for someone reading this, is look at the small details about your partner. Know them very well so that if something happens you don’t always assume the worst.

Me and my boyfriend literally make ourselves cry with laughter for 3 hours, I think that’s pretty quality to me 💕💕

I trust my lil babyboy, but it’s so hard not being able to give him endless cuddles and kisses ;(

I'm in a long-distance relationship for nearly three years now, and let me tell you something: it's tough at times. People around me are surprised that I only get to meet him a few times in a year. The three things that work for us: insane amounts of communication, effort and patience. I've definitely become a lot more secure, understanding and appreciative over the years. He's changed me for the better, LOL. Never give up on each other no matter what, it's always worth it in the end. ❤️👫

I think the best advice really is to have your own life and to find a partner who's passionate about theirs as well. Me and my partner are busy with our lives that whenever we get to talk we spend so much time because we know we love each other and are not obsessed with spending all day with each other because we prioritize ourselves too. If you treat your partner as a desert for your efforts and not your main course or appetizer, life changes so much. You can be straight forward with them and also not strangle them with expectations because that also ruins relationships. Once you expect someone to act a certain way to your favour and not based on facts it'll just destroy them because you didn't try to understand so you're just in a relationship with you the image in your head.

Im currently in a long distance relationship, and anxiety kills my everyday.

I’m in a distance relationship rn and it’s very hard to handle. But we’re both willing to put efforts into it and make it work. Trust and patience is the key💗

Being in a LDR is tough, but doable. I'm now 2 years in one. Just the thought of how far we have come is motivation enough to look forward to many more memories. Our love for each other is bigger than the distance that separates us. To those in LDR', it usually gets tough before it gets easy. So hold on tight keep on growing together. Best of luck!!

the positivity in the comments

We're 5 years long distance as of now. He's visiting my country every year.

so who's here after the coronavirus quarantine started? 😢

just communicate and trust each other, been in one since 2 years and still going strong 🤟

In a long distance relationship for almost 9 months and he will finally be here next week for good. I don't really believe LDR's could work but we did it. Through effort, patience, staying connected and being open to each other. Some things are really worth the wait To all the LDR couples out there, stay strong!

I've been in a long-distance relationship for 10 years. And all I have to say is Please Communicate your feelings. it's hard, but make it fun by playing couple quiz games like lovify. It kept our conversations interesting, especially on boring days. Never stop trying. Things will take time, but they'll work out in the end :)

One tip: treat it like a real relationship at all times. Because it is. She's not just the person you have Skype dates with and then get back to your real life. She's a part of your real life. Talking to her, doing things with her (virtual), treat them as if she's there with you. Because emotionally she is, and you should be too. You're friends, family, colleagues, strangers should all know about her like she can walk into the room at anytime. My long distance relationship is tough, but I'm happy. And so is she. We'll be together again someday. Best of luck to all of you others going the distance!

I'm currently in a long distance relationship and we just celebrated our 8th monthsary (virtual sadly) and everyday our relationship just keeps getting stronger. There are times that we argue but that's normal actually. The 3 top things we have to do in order to keep our relationship is by having the U.R.L. U- understanding If one doesn't have understanding then the relationship will go crazy and fall. R- respect Of course we have this, respect is really important (everybody probably knows why) L- love This is the reason why two people stayed together despite of any boundaries you are facing such as distance.

Being in an LDR on this pandemic is so frustrating. Me and my boyfriend hadn't meet each other since we started because of the borders not opening for them to get inside our country. It's been a year now and we both had struggles and difficulties that it almost end our relationship but love binds us both and we keep holding on and praying and being hopeful for that one sweet day to finally see each other for the very first time.

1. Give them a personal gift to hold on to. 2. Set routines and learn about each others schedules 3. Build trust and try not to jump to conclusions, dont assume the worst 4. It's not about quantity but quality 5. Make time to visit. But know that not all visits will be ideal and that is ok 6. Embrace the challenges together

One thing my boyfriend and I do is plan video chat dates and share the same meal but cooked our own unique ways. Then we surprise each other with how creative we got. It's exciting to see the effort we each put into our dishes, which translates into the effort we put into our relationship. It's fantastic! ❤️

This video triggered lots of tears. It's hard being apart. It reminded me of how much effort he puts in and the different ways in which he shows me he cares ❤

My love and I are 3 years now and we are in a long distance relationship. We both found each other during the first hit of the pandemic and we are "PANDEMIC LOVERS" 🤭. In this long-distance relationship, we will experience lots of difficulties, arguments, fighting, and so on. But just like us (my love and I) choose each other and love each other. We don't know when and where or how we will able to see each other but we leave everything to God. We trust each other, I love him so much, and he made me happy each day. If you are in a long-distance relationship, Trust and believe in your partner. No matter what or no matter how it takes. Love your partner with all your heart and I know that waiting is worth it. ❤️

Key thing is communication. My partner and I have 1 scheduled phonecall a week where we only talk about our feelings and/or concerns that we may be having, decisions that may affect the other, etc etc. Then we have spontaneous phone calls during the week where we just talk about anything from our day at work to the dog next door. We do this because we found that when we didnt, we would be hiding the "heavy feelings" from each other cause we didn't want to ruin our phonecalls by making them sad and have the other person worry. Of course thats sprinkled w morning/hope your having a good day/miss you/thinking bout you etc texts in between

Yea it’s hard for sure, but it’s literally the best thing ever. Not having your partner there physically sucks but the second you hear from them makes a world of difference. Also the building anticipation to see them is indescribable and possibly the greatest feeling of love ever. I love it 🥰

Anyone else crying? My tears are from happiness because I really think this can work.

I think about it like this: I first make sure that I am happy and cheerful in my own life, doing things with friends and family to keep myself in a good mood. Cuz then when I text him, I can maybe spread that happiness to him and cheer him up too💖

You also have to consider relationships that started online with the intention to eventually meet at some point in the future.

When my boyfriend last visited, he gave me a necklace. I wear it every day and even sleep in it, and when I stress, I fiddle with it and it calms me down because I feel physically closer to him. I have him my most valuable stuffed animal, a purple stuffed leopard that has a pouch of lavender for stress relief. It was a gift from my grandparents when I went through a major surgery last summer. It comforted me, and now it comforts him! I even sprayed it with my perfume for an extra touch which he loved. I miss him so so much, but I find comfort in knowing that I’ll see him again soon. Actually, I see him at the end of December, and I’m super excited!

I am newly in an LDR relationship for about a month now and was a bit discouraged by folks around me saying things like “I could never” or “why would you do that?” However, i must say that after reading these comments, i am encouraged to continue in my LDR.

These are some great tips and I was doing this even before finding this video. Honestly me and my BF got even more bonded and closer together with long distance then what we would've if we dated regularly. Bcs we have an honest relationship and I can always tell him if something is bothering me or if I'd like him to put in more effort and he actually listens. So when we do meet and see each other in person it won't be awkward cus we've talked for so long now and basically know everything about each other. The only thing that's really hard is sometimes I feel lonely and really wanna be in his arms but he's far away but I know we will be together for good one day. It is our destiny.

Y’all. The military is brutal on relationships. To all my military couples, you got this!! Remember why you fell for each other and remember your goals!

So guys my boo is 3yrs older than me and yes we're in LDR, I really love her so much and surely I wanna marry her one day♥️ i just need blessings from everyone. 😇♥️

I failed twice in LDR. Even still, there were good memories, and they were good partners who taught me many great things in life. If anyone who is in one I wish them the best, either to have things work out, or learn from them.

I’ve been in a LDR for about a year and some months. My first time meeting him my heart nearly skipped a beat because I knew and felt like I had met my best friend/true love. I honestly don’t have a problem with it me and my partner actually have came to an conclusion it is and will help us grow. We definitely try to see one another when we can which is helpful but when we separate we miss one another like crazy. I’ve had negative people in my ear about things but I know him and he knows me. What I’m basically saying is love on your person and continue to stand strong ❤️

We were in a online LDR for 4 years before he came to my country, it was difficult, but now we are married (3 years) and have a child n.n

Honestly, going long distance made our relationship way stronger and healthier than it was before. Now we’re getting married in a little over a month ❤️

My first healthy relationship has been the long distance one I am in now! It has been hard but so worth it! We are almost one and half years and growing strong!!

i'm currently in long distance relationship for about a year, first we were hectic and often jumped to conclusions but now we're stable. we call every single day for 4+ hours. I know it's a little bit too much and may backfire but it just suits us well. When we get bored of the same lifestyle we calmly tell each other that we're starting to get bored and take phone call breaks for a day or two, it works! And my advice is let your partner know that you're not cheating by telling them first about your day or schedule before your partner asks about it. Asking each and everytime is tiring for your partner and makes them think that they're being annoying and starts hiding their insecurities, this breaks down the calm relationship and stirs fights. Cheers! PS: my GF is not the same nationality as me :) If you need advice on this point ask me about it.

6 Tips on Maintaining LDRs: 1. Give them a personal gift to hold onto. 2. Set routines & learn about each other's schedules. 3. Build trust & try not to jump to conclusions. 4. It's not about the quantity (how often you talk), it's about quality (quality communication). 5. Make time to see each other, but know that every visit may not be ideal, & that's okay. 6. Embrace the challenges together.

I'm dating a girl for 1.5 years and I'm going away for a while to work... My flight is in 4 hours and I can't sleep. I feel absolutely horrible. I'll miss you babe This feeling is certainly crushing

I am in a long distance relationship for over 9months now, I do happen to be 13 and in my first relationship. We are lucky enough to be in the same time zones and we get to see each other every month, of course it’s difficult at times but it really lets you get to know the person you’re with and how they act in a relationship:>

Yesterday my girlfriend went back to her country. We have been together for 1 and a half years. We love each other very much and willing to do whatever to make our relationships works ♥️ 🌍 ✈️

my girlfriend is in Minnesota and i’m in California but we broke ass college students somehow manage to see each other every few months. seeing everyone else’s replies on here really makes me feel like i have it easy. LDR is truly a beautiful thing bc it makes you appreciate every moment you have together.

Me and my current girlfriend honestly can't stop talking to each other lol. Like we thought the same about getting burnt out but even when we have nothing to say on a call it's just nice having someone there. Plus we watch tons of videos and work on stuff together sharing hobbies etc.

I have been in a relationship twice and both LDR, while the previous one was a lot of effort and taxing and emotionally draining, my current one is so much more incredible in every way. Cut to the chase, it is all about the person you are with, be with someone who makes efforts for you, respects you. I have never been happier as of now. ❤️ Love to every LDR couple

In a long distant relationship and it’s six months today... it’s about the love and company... it’s difficult but fun☺️☺️🖤

I am in a LDR and gotta say that this is very important. Especially about the balance between quantity and quality of talks. This is sometimes hard to accept, when you want to be in thouch with that person all the time and have nothing to talk about, but it's worth the effort.

I have a boyfriend in Oklahoma. I live in Texas. *_ROAD TRIP_*

0:25 It all boils to one word effort 0:35 Give them a personal gift 0:55 Schedule 1:35 Trust 2:10 Quality communication 2:50 Make time to see each other 3:30 Embrace the challeges together 3:50 Long distance is temporary 4:05 Common misconception: In order for things to work I need to sacrifice my needs and desires for my partner/don't forget the bigger picture, why you've stayed with your partner for this long

STAY STRONG, IT WILL BE BEAUTIFUL ❤️ -2022 LDR with her is one of the best thing ever happened to me 🥰

I'm not even in a relationship, but I just really enjoy watching psyche2go videos. I don't know why 😅.

Bro literally every couple has a LDRS now in 2020

I just started long distance and I’m quite nervous and a little down about it- I just can’t imagine not having him by my side every day at school. Thank you for this. 💞

I totally agree to those tips. I have a very fresh long distance relationship (germany / USA) for 9 months now. With this relationship i noticed many things i didn't realise about me. You have reflect yourself constantly and its hard to not overthink all the time especially to avoiding toxic behaving patterns. Even when it's hard we make the best out of it. And YES: I never felt so close to someone. FOR ALL OF YOU: good luck and enjoy life and love wherever it falls. "happiness is a choice!"

I have been in the relationship for 4 years and we haven't still met 😅...but he is coming after 1 month and I am so excited to see him for the first time 😍

I cant express how true "EFFORT" is... Im going 7 years strong! LDR DO WORK!

I was in a long term relationship for a year. It ended. When we moved in together 🥰 honestly learning to live together, and me moving in with him and away from all I knew, has been harder than long distance for me. Long distance was easy for us, we met gaming and games every day. Even if not on the same game. Our immense communication skills really made it a breeze. Never went to bed upset with each other. We also understand each other's need for some space and alone time sometimes, and we will just ask if the other needs that if we aren't sure. If we aren't sure about our own feelings or what to say we will take the time to think about them before we answer. Communication really is the key to a healthy relationship. No one can read minds. You both should also be in tune with your own emotions and not let them drive disagreements. I can proudly say we have never fought. Disagreed yes but never fought. No raised voices in our house. (Save for at video games 😂)

this is really helpful. me and my boyfriend had to go through LDR because I'm continuing my studies far from him. I can feel it that we already grow distance but I really love him and our relationship so here I am trying to make sure I lose the guy that I love. I know it can be so hard going through LDR but trust me if you give a lot of efforts and never give up to maintain the relationship, it's going to be worth it in the end

I’m in LDR for 9 years. It’s so hard bc I miss him a lot!

1- personal gift memorable 2-learn about each other routine Know about his schedules 3-build trust not get conclusions soon 4-focus on quality not quantity 5-make time to see each other 5.1- do fun activities 6- embrace the challenges together 7-

I am in a LDR right now, and it's all about communication. If you talk to each other and trust each other, everything is possible.

I am in a long distance relationship for nearly 3 years now. We live in different countries and can't visit each other so easily. Last time I could visit him was 2 years ago. But I trust him and we are looking forward to be together some day in the future :)

Never thought I would meet someone so far away- and won’t lie it could be as long as 3 years till we meet but- it’s been a bit over 6 months and man I love her so much. It’s so hard being so far from people who mean so much to you :(

I’m so excited to see this! I’m in a distance relationship for almost 5 months, a big distance bc I’m in Asia and he is in the US. We know it’ll be hard but we’re willing to make it work. 💖 +: It’s so sweet to read about everyone else’s LDR’s, I’m wishing the best for you all!💖💕💖

I'm in a long distance relationship,he's from France and I'm from India, we talk to each other every evening, like video calls and stuff and talk about how our day went.. it's a magical world when two people talk ❤..and nothing can break us apart 🥰

I am currently in a long distance relationship and it is been over 8 months. I am studying at university in U.K. and my boyfriend is still in Lithuania studying. It is very hard to stay strong and go through my day knowing that he is very far away. I am trying to think positive and tell myself that it is going to be only a few years but is hard. We see each other rarely but for two weeks or more and still, it is not enough because up till now I saw him only two times. We love each other very much and we talk every day, we play games and watch movies or shows together at the same time while talking on Skype. We exchange pictures from time to time and most of them are silly ones :D To everyone that is going through long distance relationship, I can say that communication and honesty is a key as well as trusting one another and doing things together. Sometimes it may feel that the distance is not even there.

I've been in a really long distance relationship for over 4 years now and we are finally moving together in less than 2 months! My tip would be keep making plans together for when you'll be seeing each other, taking into consideration which date works the best for both of you. Life happens, specially when you have a job or you study, it's OK if you can't see each other in 4 months, just set a date to hold on to. And one more thing, think about when the distance will be over, decide where will you live, think when you roughly want it to happen. Going with the flow doesn't really work in this kind of relationships!

Thanks for this video! My first relationship is a long distance one, so watching this helped me identify mistakes I was making! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

I think, effort is something that I’ve always wanted to do when it comes to Relationships. And I guess through this LDR, I am doing that. It’s challenging but worthwhile.

I'm in Long distance relationship and anxiety is killing me every single day... :(

18 months, I'm in high school and her parents are strict. Her parents don't wanna take the risk, but imma boutta break into her house and sneak her out at this point, she said she's down 😂

Im in a long distance relationship and she’s without a doubt the love of my life. Relationships I’ve had in the past just don’t compare to the feelings of love that we have for one another. She may doubt when i tell her that she’s the most beautiful thing ive ever seen but i swear its true. The emotions i feel just from seeing her face are unlike anything I’ve ever felt about anyone. I find her to be perfect and i would fight for us to be together no matter what the distance is or who’s between us.. i choose her out of the entire world and distance is nothing when you feel this way about someone. I love you Debbie!

Been doing it for 5years in a 15 years relationship and I must say its the hardest thing I have ever done in my life ,I must say communication is the most important thing in long distance relationship .and remind yourself of happy times.

I was about to study, but this video caught my attention. My princess, she lives 12,795 km away from me. We have been dating since 4/16/2020 I didn't expect my first relationship would be a long-distance I give her to her every day of every second, I'm planning to meet her within 3 years I hope she can wait for me. My birthday is coming up so I made a video for her to show her how much I love her can't wait to see her reactions. I will try to hold on to my partner no matter what happens 💪💗💖

Someone whose in a long distant relationship advice: Don’t spam them unless they’re fine with it because it can make them annoyed

One thing I do with my partner is ALWAYS say good morning and good night. If we haven't talked the whole day, it gives us a chance to do so, and it also serves as reassurance to each other.

I'm in LDR for like 10 months now, not gonna lie, it's crazy tough at first, we demand endless chat, overdose of insecurities, doubts here and there, small fight over unproven disloyalty u tell me my god its exhausting and I'm nearly burnout. but somehow it turns out fine, just need loads of patience, trust, and continuously showing love everyday for sure...3 hours flight distance?...yup we're all for it.

I was and now married to my long distance relationship 😃 It can be daunting especially if your not from the same country. The most important thing is you need to decide what are the most important values for you and your partner, ie job over health care.

" Good Morning! " " Good Night! " User Offline Lmao

I only saw them in person a few times before i ever realized i loved them. I’ve sent them a few art peices and things i’ve made for them and i hope they cherish them as much as i cherish the letters i have, and the small stuffed animal i have from them as a gift. I miss them so much and i hope to see them soon to give them love 💖

Yes Daily conversation or phone calls along with sharing about the day we had really makes relationships stronger and healthier 😊

I've been in a ldr for 2 years, we've met the first time when I was in korea for a vacation and we finally moved in together earlier this month, as i got a university near his place! :') we are engaged.

I just got this recommended when my best friend is about to go out of state for college. This really helped make me feel a little bit more prepared.

ayooo regular reassurance is kinda helpful, and motivates the other to hold on and know that their loved ones aren't getting bored or loosing interest of any sort.

It is incredible how unrelated this is to my life........especially the "relationship" part.

I'm in a long distance relationship with my boyfriend for a year and we're doing great! it makes our relationship stronger, the hard part is that you have to explain to your family and friends about the relationship ^^;

I've been in a LDR like 2 weeks ago I believe, and I've had these problems also, like the jealousy and the jumping to conclusions while I'm at school, stressing, worrying about how will relationship last. Thankfully, I thought of if there's was a way and I found this video. From now on I'll do the opposite and keep me and my boyfriend's balance perfectly.

Today is the first anniversary of my Long Distance Relationship with her, I'm so much excited about this and lucky to have her in my life. She's such a precious gem and I can't think of my life without her. Even though we're apart, we feel so close to each other and have great understanding and strong connection. I believe pairs are created from God, he created her for me. I'll wait my whole life to meet her one day.. Blessed to have her and I love her so much. 😍❤️🥰

I'm currently in a long distance relationship, and my bf plan on visiting in July after 11 months. The journey so far has been tough, exciting, and, well a bit challenging. Nothing good comes easy, and so its worth waiting for. And to those who are in a LDR please don't give up, hold on to your feelings and you won't regret it for as long as you are both trying. Xxx

for anyone whos drifting apart from their ldr partner (like i am, known her for almost a year, only person who cares about me) from somebody with experience in long distance friendships, relationships etc, heres some advice from me 1) make them think about the positive things about you. say 'hey I really like my outfit and nobody is hyping me up. I kinda need it, can you maybe? :')' or 'omg I feel really confident today, look one min lemme send a pic'. if they don't hype you up or say that you look pretty, its gonna be difficult im sorry. 2) message them daily about your day, start to finish. they might ask questions and, when they respond, ask how theirs was. if they say 'it was okay' ask them for details, get them TALKING. that's important. 3) don't just like messages then wait for them to continue. DONT. WAIT. FOR. THEM. if they leave you on read or just like your message, start another conversation. 4) ask to call them. I personally have phone anxiety so, for the many years ive had online friendships/relationships, I don't call. but I think calling can be important. 5) tell them when ur crying. pity isn't usually the way but it can make them care for you. don't make up things and make your life seem worse than it is. that's plain lying. imma paste this on all videos like this. hope it helps

yES! this video is too accurate! my boyfriend and I have been dating for 6 years now, and we've only met literally twice in person for a week each! talking it out and communicating is the key guys! it always is to every relationship.

I have been in a LDR for more than a year. We never had negative thoughts about each other. We trusted on our relationship and was determined to be for each other.Initially I wasn’t patient enough, but he challenged me and made me go through tough times. But I thank him wholeheartedly now. Finally we are engaged. We will meet after few more years for our social marriage . I love him so much. ❤️

I adore my girlfriend. The quarantine has thrown us into a long distance relationship. But we’ll be together soon, sweetheart! I love you!
