Don’t do them. Seriously, they are tough. It takes a lot of committment and very good communication to sustain a relationship long distance.
So why am I talking about long distance relationships today? Because I just returned to Atlanta from New Jersey. My wife lives and work there while I am finishing my degree. We have been apart 3 years now. It is difficult. We miss each other a lot. We try to be together as much as we can, but work and finances interfere. So we see each other every other weekend. One thing going for us from the start was the fact that we had been married for a long time before she had to move to Jersey because of her career. I know it would have been disastrous if it had happened early in our relationship.
