Yeah. You connect with the person in a whole other level. And communication will become a whole lot easier when yous finally are together for reals

Long distance relationship dies off easily

Sista make ino lie u , not all long relationship works out. With d level i study girls reach i noticed that girls need attention , they can b easily carried away. As for me i can't cope with long distance relationship. My yoruba pple said "agbo mojo lomo moju"

Once nd it was hell

. D most important thing is communication and it has to be from both sides when left to one party it's frustrating, girls love words and when we don't hear it........

Well, LDRs (Long Distance Relationships) involve a great deal of commitment, patience and communication. B4 venturing into a LDR there are a number of things to be put into consideration.
*Is it worth it?
* Do u both love each other enough?
* Are u willing to go through the hassles of a LDR? There will definitely be times when u'll feel lonely, bored, someone to cuddle, someone special to make ur day. Will u be able to pull through graciously rather than having second thoughts and thinking about a new relationship?
* U'll have to consciously make up ur mind to be trusting, irrespective of what ur gut's telling u.
* There'll be occasional fights, misunderstanding and communication may dwindle. Will u take a walk at the first instance of any of such happening?
* At some point, u may have to be the one making all the effort to keep things as they should be... Sustaining the relationship.
* Are u thinking long term? If not, why waste ur time on a LDR?


And lots more to consider. U simply have to do a lot of thinking to avoid getting in a LDR and jumping put all too soon.

That shii aint worth it

I am currently in one and I am enjoying it.
First don't start a long distance relationship on assumption, there have to be a conviction that the person is the missing rib. Trust is the basic ingredient, u just have to be very mature and be ready to handle and treat issues as they come, avoid pile up of issues.

Communication is very important, take advantage of social apps, video calls and chats. Nobody is perfect, be willing to forgive.

It has its own disadvantage as u can be lonely sometimes and need company but just we all know, if you really love the person, the sacrifice of been lonely for sometimes is not too much to pay.

LDR gives u time to do personal things, think out issues, gives you the ability to love without sex, gives you the ability to know a partner that will stay faithful when either of you separate for business or personal reasons, u make more savings and you learn self control and discipline. It gives you the ability to stay focus on what you want and you
Learn to live with urself, by urself and on urself.

So, if the person is worth it, there is nothing wrong with it. Mine is not even in the country and yet I am soo hapi in my relationship. I have a friend whose guy is far from, she is happy too. As far as u have plans on when u two will be together, no shaking.

Majorly depends on the people involved.....

No No and NO. I have done it twice and it did not work. The polygamous nature in men will not allow dem 2 be faithful to you.

yeap., I've always got it going for me... I think its the best if you ask me.

Hmmmmmmm... My People. Let us not decieve ourselves Long distance relationship isnt it @ all...........................

It depends on the kind of person u are in with if its a student den u stand d risk having terrible experiences.
It demands the commitment of two persons who are genuinely in love with each other.

I think i practised something like that i started my first relationship with a LDR that lasted close to a Yr and mayb because it was my first nd serious one and i but in my best to make it work despite d fact that i knew ladies dis dayz cant b trusted. I NEVER double dated for once just becos i felt ''Kamar'' exist. It started well sort off but @ a point it seemed d other party started showing some funny attitudes and behaviour. However i tried to using calls as a means to ensure i feel the gap afterall i wernt even the one who went on a distance away from her however it seemed i was a torn in the neck. I even went up to the extent of sending recharge cards so as to let her also do the calling but it didnt work out. And when i ask she will say no credit but @ a point i used a friend number to flash her line and i was amazed she cald back to know who was calling. dat alone made me go into shock for dayz. But i dont have a problem with someone who tells me they dont have call credit cos if the person really worth it i will willingly send the card as many times as possible.

I also tried to spice it up by introducing questions during our chat but to the other person it was like an interogative relationship coupled with d fact that she easily picks offences and would really appreciate i dont call. Attimes she will b online but will not decide to say even a "Hello" @ a point i decided not to chat her nor call for about 5 days and dis lady didnt borther asking by the time i came back and i complained i was amazed she told me she never noticed i wasnt online.

Each time she was around she wouldnt even give any time for us to see and discuss certain issues face to face. she either give excuses of sickness and all what not.


I do tell her this LDR demands steady communication from both parties all the time but she neva bulged.


@ d end when i started complaining so she will know my likes and dislikes and d next thing she said was i abuse her emotionally.

It was then i started analysing my life that if i decide to endure dis what if in future it starts all over or even worst than this? ppl will tell me shey u see am b4 u buy market. bsides i wont like to b with a secretive person cos such person is capable of poisoning someone altho im also an introvert but i can b comfortable being an extrovert when within my comfort zone.

Thank God it was a "No Sex not even a perk or kiss" relationship


In all i may not know her side of the story. neither do i blame her for it cos she may have her own side of the story but i av learnt so many lessons from it.

I still strongly believe there is something she is hidding from me she doesnt want me to know. perharps dats d reason for her actions.


So my Ppl im not discouraging anyone who wants to practise it cos what doesnt work for someone may actually work for other persons
..

Its not advisable! I am currently in one and I am not enjoying it. It only comes alive when we see each other. And its not possible to have 90% communication from both sides, and that's the most important thing.

not advisable,
infidelity is easy on both sides and i cant take a relationship like that seriously

lemme add this.. LDR work for some people because they take it as a fall back option.. but it takes real self discipline on both sides to make LDR work well

Been in one for more than 2years now, precisely Nov 9th 2013 till date. We've fought a lot to the extent where she cplained of excess fights and quarrels and pleaded that we get better. Her paddy is a male, and I really detest that.

I always make sure I call her every morning before going to school as I am outside the country and time difference isn't really fair to both of us. At one point I stopped calling in the morning, only to realize that she loved every bit of it.

The only time we use Skype is when we are very very very OK as per the relationship health is 100% good. If not, it is straight up WhatsApp call or texting. And sometimes we just stay silent waiting for the next person to say a word when we are mad @eachother.

Women needs you to be there, apart from the words you speak. Someone to just hold them close not necessarily sex as we uphold our values of no sex before marriage. Please no one should say haaaa she is using your head or anything, the truth is, I know thus girl to an extent that I trust her to an extent also.

Loves, or long distance relationships requires a great deal of trust but trust does not just come easy. One has to work towards it and that is what most ladies or guys in an LDR forgets.

Communication and sincerity of heart also makes LDR good or bad. You can be dating someone or married to someone and you live in same house and still they will cheat on you.

We hope to write our own story on how we survived because it hasn't really been easy. My course ends March next year and I can't wait to meet the love of my life...

long distance relationship is interesting and very good once love binds y'all together, love and respect will keep the relationship till y'all meet I've witnessed a lot of successful long distance relationship that ended up into a blissful union.

I do rather have my partner with me at all times.
