First LDR and struggling..

Z

I met my boyfriend in January on a trip to Lebanon. He lives there and I live in London. We speak everyday, all day and I went to visit him again for a few weeks in April when I met his family. Anyone else find that things move much quicker in a LDR? It's been nearly 8 months and we're discussing the future and who would move when it comes to it. I am however getting A LOT of hate and negativity thrown my way, 'it will never work' 'you're living in a dream world'. It's difficult enough not being able to be around your SO but this just leaves me feeling so dejected every day. Does anyone get a lot of negativity from outsiders? How do you keep you're spirits up when your guy/girl isn't around and everyone is undermining your relationship? Feel like everyone is against us right now. Would love to hear stories similar to mine xoxo
