You have to be bold to be able to endure the emotional pain. You have to be prepared to spend more time by yourself than with your other half. Its more than hard. Saying that distance is hard would be an understatement. It isn’t something that you can just get use to, no matter how long you’ve together. It is something that you just have to live with, no matter how much you don’t want to. Life isn’t fair in a million different ways, and when you finally meet that perfect person, there is always a catch. Things will never just be handed to you, you need to work for what you want. And if you got what it takes to stick it out, then all power to you.
