LDRs are tough but definitely doable! My partner and I did 2 years long distance before we could move to the same city.
Some things that helped us:
- Having a clear timeline/plan for closing the distance
- Watching movies "together" over video call
- Sending care packages with little personal touches
- Being really intentional about communication - not just "how was your day" but deeper conversations
The jealousy thing is real. We had to work on building trust and being extra transparent about social situations. It gets easier with time.
Hang in there! ❤️
