| Distant Relationship: Happy Ending? by phemnahs(m): 9:55am On Oct 14, 2011 |
Is it possible to have a "they live happily ever after" in a distant relationship? One partner being abroad and the other being in Nigeria. This is something that is affecting a lot of relationship, have caused broken homes, even depressions and worse suicide. Is it advisable to start one? |

Hello poster!  I've seen some distant relationships which have worked but to be honest, you will have to be brave, very patient and in love to bear that because many obstacles like the fact you can't see the person you love as you wish or temptations etc could become issues, but if you think you can do that just go but think serioously about it first |

Nayah you love suffer o when they are easier ways you always chose the hardest life is too short to be unhappy o. i was once like you but you will change you will remember aunty ebony said so on NL. @ poster yes you can live happily ever after in a long distance relationship but it will be SEPERATELY with one partner doing one thing and the other doing another cos that is the only happy ending you are going to get. you will just chose to believe whatever story you are being told cos the alternative is to die young. |

ebonyvibe: Aunty Ebony, I'm grateful you worry about me but seriously there's nothing to worry about, trust me I know where my limits and people do where are theirs with me, I try not jugde people even though I disagree with them but all my decisions are thought and assumed |

| Re: Distant Relationship: Happy Ending? by feelamong(m): 3:54pm On Oct 14, 2011 |
Ijogz K: It did not work cos There was no love from the beginning……. See long distance in relationship is like fire and wind………, If the Fire is low and struggling then the wind would just put it out! But if the Fire is already strong and wild the wind would help to spread it even more!! Mine worked and we live happily since I came back to naija to start my buz at ASPANDA! |

It does, depends on the couples involved, that is where trust, communication and understanding plays a very big role, |
| Re: Distant Relationship: Happy Ending? by Roland17(m): 4:01pm On Oct 14, 2011 |
Its usually a difficult situation because its very sensitive, so many things tend to go wrong and if both parties end up together, the must be open and plain to each other about events that occurred. its a very difficult path to thread. |
| Re: Distant Relationship: Happy Ending? by moremi2008(m): 4:14pm On Oct 14, 2011 |
It usually works if the couple has had some time together in the same country to build a solid foundation for their relationship and then a partner travels abroad. Otherwise, the foundation for long-distance relationships can be very weak. My uncle did it though and he has one of the happiest marriages I have ever seen (he was based in London and married a woman from his town after only a very brief initial meeting and a year or two of telephone courtship). |

I honestly do not think so, my fiancee in delta state got herself pregnant for another man last year. So sad. @OP na so i see am. |
| Re: Distant Relationship: Happy Ending? by Orikinla(m): 4:26pm On Oct 14, 2011 |
Well, I have only had one long distance relationship in Nigeria. And it ended like a Nollywood home video.  But I still want to experience part two just for the fun of it, because I love the romantic adventures. Like running into armed robbers whilst going to visit the babe in another state. |
| Re: Distant Relationship: Happy Ending? by binigirl(f): 4:48pm On Oct 14, 2011 |
@Poster: Long distant relationship na long thing( talking 4rm experience), but it might work 4 u sha, u jst need a lot of patience. |
| Re: Distant Relationship: Happy Ending? by Sisiekoo: 5:11pm On Oct 14, 2011 |
Not worth it… Talking from experience, you will drift apart unconsciously…, But if you both make the effort maybe… maybe not… |
| Re: Distant Relationship: Happy Ending? by agentzakky(m): 5:26pm On Oct 14, 2011 |

| Re: Distant Relationship: Happy Ending? by Nobody: 5:59pm On Oct 14, 2011 |
Trust me, if the love is worth it, and you trust the person, you will not even open a thread. Do you think good men/women come easily? If you have a good thing, hold on there whether far or near. 1 Like |
