Distance Don't Matter

The probability of having a lasting long-distance relationship is not so good based on statistics. But why do I believe in statistics and hearsay that long distance love affairs won't work at all. When there are some instances that the love separated by distance will still work and endure the test of time. Hear out the story of my friend whom I met overseas, because up to now I am still fascinated how they started an affair that they still cling on up to this time.

My friends are both Asian, and I have met them when I was still working in an Asian country. They are both a lovable individual, the guy was the soft-spoken type and the girl is a good conversationalist. The guy was the shy type and the girl was the opposite, many people who know them will exactly conclude that they are both standing on the opposite side of the magnet pole that is the very reason why they attract each other. And there are only one thing that keep this couple busy together and that is cooking Asian meal for their breakfast, lunch and dinner. No questions asked, they both love to eat as well and with simple needs and a simple life I find them really happy about each others company.
Things don't end up well when the Asian economy suffered a lot of losses during those times, the couple’s visa and job was seriously affected. Since me and my friends are both expatriates on that Asian country, the only choice left for them is that one of them have to leave the host country so that they could still support the needs of their family. The girl went back home to their own country and the guy kept his visa and work alone in the foreign land.

A decision like that is never easy, leaving behind the one you live to love. But the will to keep the relationship going on is one tough task they both have to endure. Considering the temptation, the never ending test of faith for one another is not a joke. But I am happy to hear that after 10 long years these couple are still together and keeping the long distance love flare burning. I might say the relationship is never perfect but they both manage to keep the relationship enduring. I admire my dear friends for keeping the flame alive after all the trying times in their relationship and I am happy to say that they have to say thanks to the frequent communication brought about by the modern technology of this time. They make the relationship worthy by constantly chatting about sweet-nothings, seriously talking about matters that have to be weighed accordingly, respect each others feeling and most of all having the patience to understand that they can never touch each other for quite a long time. And most of all giving themselves the reason to miss each other for each passing day they are not together.

We may never know when is a situation right or wrong, but the thing of beauty this modern age has brought into our lives is to keep a constant communication with the people we care about. And if you are still single never loose hope meeting the perfect match for you, because the World Wide Web could possibly be helping you out finding the partner you have been waiting for all your life. And if the distance was so great, you never had to worry anymore because as long as you keep the communication clear and open all the time, you are sure to keep a long-distance relationship work. So quit waiting for miracle to happen you simply have to make miracle works for you.
