 ♡ Meeting your LDR partner for the first time ♡

With online dating now a thoroughly acceptable way to meet the next love of your life, it’s becoming more common for people to fall in love with partners who are on the other side of the globe. Now, there are no borders or boundaries when it comes to love.
When you’re going to meet with someone you’ve never met before, whether that’s someone you met on a dating site or a totally blind date – it’s normal to be a little nervous and worry that things won’t go well or work out. But when I saw my husband for the first time, I was in a mixed emotion. It was so awkward that I don’t know what to say or where should I start the conversation just to ease the awkwardness. But I found out that talking to him was so fun and easy.And along the way, I just knew for sure that his going to be my forever. I would never call it love at first sight (such a cliché), I just knew. I’d just never met anyone before who I felt such a bond the way I felt to my husband. We may had slightly different experiences but took away the same lessons and feelings from them.

While a LDR is hard work, that hard work can pay off. You shouldn’t give up hope of achieving your happily ever after just because you’re in a long distance relationship. In fact, you may end up with a deeper and more grounded relationship precisely because you have spent some time long distance. And if you are committed and willing to put in the effort, there is every chance that your relationship will succeed if you both really want it to

The joy and sorrow of Long Distance relationship

Nothing tests a relationship more than distance. I’ve been away from my husband for almost a year, and it’s never been easy at all. You really need to adjust to not seeing each other for how many months…not being together when we needed each other most. But along the way, I definitely believe that being in a long distance relationship is something that every couple could benefit from going through. Not only does strengthen your relationship and test it – but the experience also strengthens you as an individual.

– No relationship is easy or perfect. There will always be some challenges, but if the person truly means to you, whether that person is your partner, a friend or parent you have to work to fix things. Being in a long distance relationship has changed us individually and as a couple in many ways; good ways. We learned how to make things work, and gradually it got easier. Now we are extremely happy to have gone through all of this. Now we feel confident about us and cannot wait to begin the next chapter of our lives: being together anytime we want. Yes, being in a long distance relationship is difficult, but when it is with the right person, it isn’t half bad. It taught us a lot about ourselves, things we might not have figured out otherwise.
