Hello everyone here

LDR is not an healthy relationship I agree... There is mutual trust. I just struggle with patience. I want him with me now. Or me with him, where he is ((ugh))

So started out as friends.. because : "hey" this is safe and he lives over 2500 miles away.. No harm there.. and before everyone had a smart phone.. so pretty much interacting on the forums, and just regular email, which is almost like chat, if you keep hitting the "refresh" button.  The site was actually called something like Just Say Hi, before it changed to Mingle2. But over time.. daily emails, graduating to phone calls over 3 months, led me to a path that I must meet this person. We agreed, and the plans were laid.. Still daily phone calls and emails, and online interaction. I flew out to meet him 9 months later, and we had a great first face to face meeting.. a wonderful 2 weeks.. I flew back to where I was living and before I had even landed he had emailed with a crazy little song from David Cassidy.. "I Think I Love You" Silly & precious all at once. Got my affairs in order and moved out there 3 months later after I secured a job with the company I was currently working for.. a transfer.. but I paid my own way to move. Some things happened before I got moved out to him, of course.. because what is life but a challenge.. his job downsized so he became unemployed, he called and told me, and said he understood if I wanted to change our plans. I have had worse challenges than that in my life, and I told him, I loved him, not his job, or his monetary status. I had a job, and I was optimistic for both of us that he would find employment. It took 15 months but he did find a good job. We were both older. and had many challenges before we met each other.. But when you are older, life is also shorter.. and the one challenge we could not overcome was cancer. All of my optimism and faith could not save him.. so needless to say.. I am not at the most optimistic point in my life, and I am not the starry eyed woman I must have been at some point. Long distance relationships can work.. if your goal is to be together eventually. If you are just being in the relationship indefinitely.. with no goal to become a closer.. it probably will have a tendency to slowly just fizzle away.. Sorry this is so long.. but it isn't about distance,, it is what/who you are looking for in your life and what/who you really want may not be just across the street.. I refuse to settle just because it is easier than being alone.. One must be true to themselves in order to be good for anyone else. I hope you all find what you are searching for..  Just wow. It sounds so similar to me. I found my last husband on Mingle and he passed too. True love surmounts everything, distance, time management, other people who care about you, their opinions. It is all about that connection. I live in a small town, I know I will not find love here. LDR do work. You and I are that proof. I am so sorry for your loss.  . |

Please accept my condolences for your loss as well. Sometimes I wonder if a connection would ever be recognized anymore as I feel quite jaded.. but perhaps that is just a sign that I am not really ready. I hope everyone is having a wonderful day
