Long Distance Relationships: Does It Work? | NEWSPITTER

The answer is pretty simple: Yes they can but whenever you involve humans and emotions, most time things are never ?simple.? I know you?re probably thinking how? After all, a relationship involves 2 individuals being together and enjoying each other?s companionship within close proximity of each other right?

True, however some of the best relationships are not only from couples who live 10 minutes from each other, but maybe different states and even different countries away.

How do they ?survive? that relationship? I mean aren?t they worried that the other person would cheat on them? The bottom line ultimately comes down to this 5 letter word that gets tossed around often and some take for granted: trust.

In my opinion, the number one fear when it comes to a long distance relationship is the fact that they feel that the other person will cheat on them. This fear comes from personal insecurities and also from our wonderful friends and family who mean well when they want to advise us in our relationships but don?t realize that they?re ultimately planting a negative seed in our minds.

People need to realize that if a person is going to cheat, it doesn?t matter if they are 10 miles away or 10,000 miles away. You have husbands that live in the same house as their wives and still manage to cheat.

Well it all comes back to this 1 word: trust. How much do you trust your partner? How much do you trust yourself to remain faithful and lastly, how much do you trust in your relationship itself?

Long distance relationships take a lot of work. More work than a ?regular? relationship, which also may be another reason that turns people off about them. It?s taking the extra effort to make your relationship work is what many people don?t want; To be put in that position where they might have to adjust their schedule to fit talking to their partner on Skype or on the phone because they are in a different time zone. Or having to use up all their vacation time at work to go see their partner because they are in a different state or country.

Not to mention the amount of money spent on phone calls, plane/bus tickets, packages being sent cross country, etc. Yes, your expenses just got that much higher but at the end of the day, will it all be worth it? If you can truly find it in your heart to say yes, then why not go for it?

After all absence does make the heart grow fonder and you?ll come to love and appreciate your partner more the longer you two are apart anyway.
