Many and most of the couple who are in a long distance relationship did not come to a beautiful end. Pity fights that must supposedly an act of affection to your partner because you long too much for both presence might lead to misunderstandings and worst to quarrel. Come to think about anniversaries, birthdays and even Christmas holidays are now spend virtually which must supposedly be more special because you got to spend it with your family and with your partner.
The main factor is that in every relationship, it needs huge investments - investments of trust, support, understanding, time and most of all, effort. Hence, the situation is sometimes getting harder when two individuals are distant and not living with the same town or even country.
Let's go deeper to investments for a successful relationship.It might be in a long distance or not, everyone must have these.
•TRUST- Yes! This is the most important part of investment not just in a romatic relationship but also to every relationship you build to everyone you meet. In a family relationship, friends, company and so on.Also, to those who are in LDR then this investment must stand firm to both couple. Don't doubt and never ever do anything to make your partner doubt you. Trust can be earn over the years, it can't be earn for just a snap. So when someone is giving a full trust on you, better take good care of it. Once it is broken, it will never be the same.
•SUPPORT- As the adage says "No man is an island". No one in this world can stand alone. We need someone to lean on, someone to listen and someone to talk to. Supporting each other will lead to a beautiful relationship between couple. When you show support to your partner he and she feel special and feel loved. In a long distance relationship, Supporting each other is an ingredient as well, because you will really know how your partner loves you when you both support each other.
•UNDERSTANDING- This is a relationship investment where your man able to adjust to your mood swings, tantrums and attitudes.
Women tend to show affection to their partner with these type of attitudes as if they are a little bit angry, yet they only want cuddles and kisses. Man, you also need to know yourself when and what to react to this type of situation. Understand your girls move first. Likewise to women, you need to understand your man too. Never put in your mind that you must be treated special because you are a woman and is sensitive. They have feelings also, they need to be understood too. Don't be too selfish. 😊
•TIME- How do you spend time together? In todays generation, the usual scenario is that you'll be meeting each other, you eat out, watch movies, then instead of talking to each other, asking how the day went being together, and anything that could be a productive day for both, is no longer observed, maybe for some but to many, yes you spend time to each other but each of you are very busy on your smartphones, one is playing, and the other one is busy scrolling over her facebook, insta and taking selfies. Everything is going digital.
Are you happy with that? Don't let this scenario dominate on your relationship. Especially if you are in a long distance relationship, every second counts specially if you both don't have the same timeclock. So don't waste your time on unnecesaary situations. The moment you are with each other, set aside your gadgets and spend quality time to one another.
The last but not the least. . .
•EFFORT- building a trust, supporting each other, understanding one another and giving time to both is an A+ effort already. Even how distant you are to your partner, exert effort still. Distant or not, it is important to show your love by giving too much effort on your relationship. That's the way how you express your love. Every effort must always be appreciated too. No matter how big or small the effort is, be happy because someone is doing it for you.
These are the factors for a successful relationship that must be followed by couple. When you enter in a relationship, act like you are really commited to someone. Don't lie and talk to each other if there are problems.
To those who are in a long distance relationships, never do a single thing that can destroy your relationship. Stay faithful to each other. If those factors are always present, there will always a happy and healthy relationship everywhere. There might be problems, but with you being strong, it will not hinder to you both, instead, it tests you on how to become stronger in your endeavors. Problems are not given to you if you can't handle it, since you have that problem, you can surpass that. Lastly, ALWAYS put HIM in the CENTER of your relationship and trust me, it will be worth it. 😇
