Tips for long distance relationship

LDR....tips i am pisces and he is taurus? i am faithful but will he be faithful? taurus men...how do i know he is in love with me?

Wish I could be of help to you, fishworry....I do not do long distance relationships.

i just ended my long distance boyfriend. i think it could have worked but we had only been dating for 4 months when we started long distance. you will know over time i guess..

I had a kind of long distance relationship, where we could only see each other about once every 1-2 weeks or so.
I just say, don't get jelous on little reason. Because I got jelous, which made me be a little cruel, and I also made him jelous, and it was just a big mess, that I regret a little.
That is my tip

Don't expect too much from it, but if it does develop, that is nice too 🙂

Yeah I am finding it hard....and painful.

Trust is an issue. But its a little different coz we both lived with each other for 6 months before this long distance started....tho we moved in without knowing each other much...we were strangers...we use to fight a lot...hell we still fight...but now there is a understanding...we leave each other alone to calm down n its all back to same...problem is the issue never gets sorted....

nway...i am trying to trust him....and i guess he is doing same....I want it to work but not on my sanity expense...will try till new year and if it doesnt then its good bye in a nice way so if we see each other in future well in summer we will, at least then we'll be able to talk.

I am a very pampering kinda girl.....i sometime think i should have been a guy....i like sending flowers...cards....presents....but i worry that him being a guy might not like it....should i still do it?

Any other tips on keepin it going?

"Tips for long distance relationship"

DON'T HAVE ONE

I couldn't..I don't think its fair on either party..I like spending time with my man..hanging out, going to dinner, watching movies, him coming over to mine and vice versa..I couldn't deal with the long distance..But each to their own I guess

I just want to CRY !!!!!!!!! 😢

sorry, FW 😢

it's really hard to have an LDR....and a lot depends on what stage in your relationship you both are.

i had one where we were apart for 5 months after having been together about a year. we had already established an exclusive relationship. he called me every night he was away, even if it was just a 2 min conversation. i never asked him to, he just did it. when he came back we moved in and were together for the next 10 years.

if you are still in the beginning stages with your taurus man where you're not even sure how he feels about you, then it's impossible to 'maintain' something that wasn't there to begin with.

and to 'build' something long distance - not impossible, especially with email and IM, but both parties should want to exert the effort. and jealousy definitely has to be kept in check - the only way that can happen is if trust is there.

agree w/ MM that LDRs are not fair to either person. it may make both of you feel better (not to mention mentally relieved) to go 'on a break' until he gets back. use the next few months to turn your energy towards yourself and making yourself happy, instead of draining your emotional resources on something that isn't fulfilling you.

in the meantime you can still keep in touch as friends ... in doing so you may even be inadvertently building a better foundation for a relationship when he gets back. meaning, you'll get to know each other better in a pressure-free environment - no expectations, no guilt trips, no hard feelings ... all this allows both of you to open up and share more without fear or worry.

look at it this way: once you get to know more about him, who knows, maybe you won't even want to be with him when he gets back 😛

good luck 🙂

LOL i'm not a religious person but i find beauty and truth in this one...thought i would share it here:

God grant me the SERENITY to accept the things I cannot change;
the COURAGE to change the things I can;
and the WISDOM to know the difference.

Thats nice Scorpt

It just that it been pull or push from begining. As in he was chasing me and I did give in coz I did like him. But he know that there were other guys who like me as well and I am still friends with them...he gets pissed off when i speak to them. But he has all there girl as well....so its same both ways.

Me and my Taurus have been together 9 months and 6 of which we lived together. We had ups n downs a lot then settled in 2 months....had a great time....did a lot...beautiful memories.

We do know each other well I think and maybe thats the problem as we know how to push each others botton. I feel he loves me but coz he hardly says it make me think he takes me for granted. He has done thing in past and it make me feel that he does love me...otherwise why....there are constant buts....since he has gone back I think i need reassurance.

Well just like your realtionship my taurus does contact me everyday even if its 2 min or just a text. I think its his way of showing that he is thinking of me. He doesnt like sloppy talk...he never says he misses me or anything...makes me wonder. These could be all just my issues....and i dont want to ruin it to us.

I know he is busy with uni and so am I....we both have work to do but i feel i am the one who is thinking of hey...new year is coming...hope he wants to spend it with me...but he is not even thinking about it...is it a man thing—? or am i just too demanding.

And yes maybe you are right that we should go on a break so there is no pressure. And when he gets back then we take it from there. But whenever I pull back not call him or contact him....he will text... text...call...call again. He comes looking for me when i disappear....and he is never ready to talk about the realtionship. So i dont know how to solve this problem.

I spoke to his mate by email...he said that he think that my taurus does feel strongly about me but he putting uni higher than everything. And that he might be scared coz of his past realtionship....which i dont understand coz he didnt want to be with her for a long time. I just worry and hope its not the same with me.

I am really sorry I m venting at the mo....just gggggggrrrrrrrrrrr....
