Long distance relationship

Me and my husband were ldr even after our court marriage. I moved out to him a few months later and not even a month after I moved he got deployed for 9 months. Everybody said we would never make it, but here we are happily married, had a big beautiful wedding when he got back, and are now expecting our first child. You do what feels right FOR YOU. Never let anyone dictate your relationship for you, every relationship has its difficulties, it just depends on whether you wanna work through them or not. Best of luck xoxo 

Continuation...Also, what helps me is staying busy. Him and i are both in school, very difficult programs so that keeps us focused. I love my space because i am an introvert and love doing things on my own do that also helps. Learn new things, hang out with your girlfriends and just really enjoy life. Yes it sucks not sharing fun moments with your SO but know that this is all temporary! 

I feel you so much! I finally met the perfect guy and in February he will be sent to Korea! We are both in Italy now!  And who knows where he will be after the year in korea! I have no idea of what is going to happen, sometimes I think about ending this relationship because i am scared to be hurt but at the same time I love him so much and I don't want to renounce to all this happiness! I am just scared that once he will be gone, he could find another girl way better than me!

Me and my boyfriend started going out in December of last year, I live in England and he is stationed in Hawaii, originally from California. It's hard when he has to go into the field and the thought of him having the potential to be deployed at any minute scares me like hell. And I get like that too, I cry and cry, get really emotional and I get jealous of those that get to be with him like his friends. Those who have never been in an LDR just don't understand, it sucks when people say "it's not a real relationship" or "why can't you just find someone closer to home" or downplay how hard it is to be in an LDR. But's totally worth it, even though there is just over 7,000 miles between us I could never picture myself being with anyone else and I know I'm going to spend the rest of my life with him. :') He gets out in three years, then we can be together and close the distance between us, I love you Greg, always and forever

My husband and I were long distance for awhile. We got married in between him PCS'ing to a different base. I drove out to his new base with him after we got married and flew home and we were still long distance for about a month until I moved half way across the country. Now he just recently left for deployment and we are expecting our first child within the next 5-6 weeks. It's definitely tough, no one really understood but when your heart knows, it knows. 

So you are talking 1 year now and another 2 more plus being in a other country due to money I'm sure, you haven't seen him in 4 months. You need to ask yourself is it worth it. I think it's easier clearly to date locally. And you never know if they are telling you everything or cheating. It takes a lot to do long distance. I've done it before and NEVER again. He cheated left and right. It's up to you. Weigh the pros and the cons. You got a lot to think about. Clearly you are having your doubts or you wouldn't be asking us. 

Giiirrrrl! I am in the same situation as you. I live in Canada, my bf lives in the states and we only see each other twice a year (every 6 months). This year will be our 4th year of being in a LDR. Listen, i also used to feel unsure about our future but we finally agreed on where we want to end up living. Once you guys set a goal, long term goals soecifically, it will make things easier. No matter how hard a long distance relationship may be, it has its beauty and you can't beat the communication and trust it had taught you. If your SO is a great, loyal, amazing person that treats you well, then hold onto that. People like that are hard to come by ❤️
