Post 3: Long Distance Relationships


One chapter I found very interesting in this book is the section about long distance relationships. I really enjoyed this section because I am currently involved in one. My girlfriend lives in Hawaii while I live in San Jose. It’s really challenging but we still manage to make the relationship work and each other happy most importantly.

The book goes into tips about maintaining long distance relationships that we use almost everyday. First, its most important to always remain honest and open about everything that happens. Any broken trust is hard to recoup 3,000 miles away. Second, we make sure we set aside time to Skype with one another. We like to call them our daily “skype dates”. This allows us to see each other face to face, have dinner, joke around, everything without the physical touch basically. There are many other things we do to make the relationship work as well.

All in all it’s a really hard thing to do, but were both busy and very understanding at the same time. Plus it gives me an excuse to visit Hawaii often.
