Something I get asked often about is how to make a long distance relationship work or asking if it's worth it? What's the hardest part? Etc. The issue is that most people don't about my relationship but as long distance relationships as a whole- which I can't answer, because everyone varies.
What I will say though:
One thing I constantly hear is that "it will get easier" or "you'll get used to it." And I have to totally disagree. Me and Ryan have been apart since May (it's August now), and there is not a single day that has been 'easier' and I have not even became close to 'used to it.'
How could I be? How can you get used to not seeing the person to love on a normal basis? How do you get used to falling asleep alone? Waking up alone? Crying alone?
All I will say is that it's a lot more difficult than most people think and it seems to get harder rather than easier on us, but there has not been a single day that I would have walked away from him for someone closer. He's been my biggest fan, my number one, my rock, my bestfriend....right now we're just having to love from a distance, and that's okay....
because our circumstances are temporary, our relationship is not.
