Pretty interesting read. My ex girlfriend and I did 1 year long distance—Netherlands and South Africa.
We did it because we knew she was going to move over. Making it work, I guess everyone does it differently, but I flew to SA at least 3 times that year for a week or 2. No tech other than a laptop and phone.
Anyhow, we broke up much later, unrelated to the distance—a mate of mine did 4 years long distance, but they met online to begin with, and they’re living together now, few years later.
Certainly can work, but upon reflection, I wouldn’t recommend it, unless you’re the kind of people that are comfortable being reliant on technology.
yeah I wouldn't recommend that you purposely find one to be in, but if your lover is on the other side of the planet, it wouldn't be a bad idea to try it out
