Thanks for taking the time to comment on this and I hope all is going well for you.

Long distance relationships are rarely simple, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be magical. You’re right, there’s no certainty in any situation, so we have to be philosophical about it and move on if needs be.

I’m happy to hear that you’ve taken so much positivity from your experiences and grown as a person. When we don’t take anything from our experiences, they are merely past events.

All the best to you, Bridge!

Put into the most simple of terms and illustrating your point clearly at the end of the day. Having had my own long distance scenario, special in its own way, it was a time in my life that taught me so much about myself as a person and helped me grow immensely as a person. I wish I had found your blog earlier because it has been a year for me to draw the same conclusions. see – http://gspotinformer.blogspot.com/2008/09/letter-to-me.html your blog is really appropriate. Thank you for making things seem a lot more black and white – it is true sometimes things will work out sometimes they won’t just like nay relationship. You need to work on it and if not pick yourself up and try again. You gain a new type of strength as a person not only by moving away to varsity but by going through something as tough as a long distance relationship. I hope people in that situation read your blog, it makes them smile and inspires them to do what their heart is telling them.

Of all the long-distance break-ups I have been aware of, there has yet to be any danger of physical harm to either party.

The saddest thing is when the situation changes a person so they feel they can no longer trust anyone close to them. It’s like a defence mechanism, I suppose, and it’s a big shame.

In todays times that is sadly how far people are taking the seriousness of their relationships
