Long distance relationship

Megan

Hi guys I’m in need of some advice.

My boyfriend and I have been dating for a little bit more than six months but I know he’s the love of my life, my soulmate. When you know you know. He’s everything you’d every dream of in a guy, super sweet and caring, NEVER gets mad, puts others first, etc. but being said he’s in the Navy and just got deployed last week. Though I’ll see him in November it still seems like so far away. We do have dates in which we’ll be seeing each other within the next year but it’s still sad. Does anyone have any advice on long distance or military relationships? I would go through hell and back for this man, I just want to do everything I can to make sure we don’t slip because that can make or break a relationship and he feels the same exact way. But I still feel like I need to hear what others have to say as well.
