Are long distance relationships too hard to maintain?
I have had a few long distance relationships and have found them to be very hard to maintain in a proper way. If and when you meet, getting to know one another is on an accelerated schedual and you miss out on many things. Time together is limited so you jump over some of the inportant steps of getting to know one another. Words in an e-mail do not always hold the same value as those spoken in person face to face. The lady I am dating now only lives 18 miles away and it has taken 7 months of weekly get togethers to get to the point we are today. We are growing in a very positive direction but it takes time to do that and have a solid foundation for a good relationship. At today’s divorce rate one should take the time to really get to know one another in their responses and reactions to situations personally. I am not saying long distance relationships will not work but they are harder to build a solid foundation under. Being that I dated the gal I am now with for almost 3 months before
