So, i have been in long distance relationship for two months now. My boyfriend and i have been together for about 5 years. The decision to reach our dreams and career after graduation, that what's made us living in different town.
We have been together since high school, we know each other too much, we always spend time together, we always celebrate birthday together, he always there whether in happy or hard time, he know how to make me smile again after hurricane.
Being patient is probably the number one rule in LDR, knowing that our relationship is worth it, is something that keeps me going. Being patient because i see it in a bigger picture.
Maybe there always hard time and bad day and loneliness, and all we need is hug.

When you are in LDR, it forces you to be independent. But, honestly i have no struggle to be independent, so it's not really hard for me. I am the kind of girl who usually have my stuff done by myself, i can traveling alone, i can do all by myself. Because knowing you don't dependent with others is the best feeling. But the hardest time for me right know, is knowing that he can't really there beside you, because we were usually have quality time together, we can talk about everything for hours, i can always tell him everything, but now it just feels different when we talk through social media or gadget. Knowing he's busy sometimes make me happy, because he's working for the future, but sometimes all we need is ears to listen and shoulders to lean on.

When you are in LDR, you start to have love-hate relationship with the airport. Seeing him on the other side when you are landing, is probably the best feeling in the world. When we finally catching up, we just apreciate every moment together because it's something that we patiently waiting for, even for just little thing like stuck in traffic or every minute we count until next departure.

We didn't plan to be in long distance relationship, but love finds us unexpected places<3
