There was a show on MTV today that followed around couples who were in long distance relationships and trying to make them work. Well, they don’t. Yeah yeah, I’m harsh, but in my own opinion they are not plausible. Sure, you can force it, fight all the time, and maybe when you finally get back in a face to face relationship there can be something small yet salvageable left, but who wants to do that? The only people that are involved in these relationship are those in their early to mid twenties. When you are that age, don’t you want to be exploring the minds of those around you, and in doing that create and mold yourself into the person you want to be? Or do you want to be on your phone or Skype all day long with someone as miserable as you “talking” about what you did that day? Now, don’t get discouraged if you feel like you know exactly what you’re talking about. I think short time frames apart can be dealt with. Like, if you and the person have been together for a long time, and they want to go abroad for a semester. Go, have fun, miss each other like crazy, absence makes the heart grow fonder. But, if the time you are going to be spending apart is longer than the actually relationship you have been in, then come on. It’s just going to strain what connection you have. Break up, grow up, and then when they come back see where you are in your lives. Sometimes, maybe you’ll be right together in your growing and you can continue your relationship peacefully. Sometimes, you’ve gown apart, and that is the way it should be. But pressuring it to continue for a lengthy amount of time a far distance apart will be strenuous for all involved, and may completely end what relationship you had to where it can no longer even be a friendship. Rough, but true. At least in my opinion.
