Kwo-ne'-she Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 I never thought I would find myself in this section. But, life has a way of throwing curve balls. I had been friends with a man for 2 yrs. It turned into more. I moved 1/2 way across the country to be with him. We had 4 wonderful months together. He treated me better than I had ever been treated, it was just amazing. I was starting to heal, feel secure, etc. Then, my life as I knew it came to a screeching halt. He's in the military. Long story, but....I had about a week to pack up, and get myself back to where I came from. We will be enduring at least a yr seperation. This was a complete shock to both of us, as we thought it was all settled, and we could be there for 4 yrs. No. I did not sign up for a LDR. Certainly not a year seperation. I'm not sure how to do this, or if I even can..... Link to post Share on other sites
Zona76 Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 Ahhhhh my dear, Let me first explain to you the main ingredient to ANY relationship. That is communication. This one ingredient is the foundation of all relationships. It's the one thing that can never die, and you must FIGHT to maintain it. Let this man know that you will need to hold him in your mind. From letters or emails to voice you must talk when you can. Be alert to his fear of war. Don't make yourself the martyr, but the giver. The more you give, the more you will receive back. AND this will strengthen your future. It's hard yes. However the most fulfilling. Link to post Share on other sites
