I have been in a long distance relationship for almost two years now. He is in college five hours away from me. Our relationship has not suffered one bit. In fact, I think the distance is one of the reasons we became so close so quickly. We began dating when he was home for christmas break one year, so we were spoiled for about a month and a half. When he had to go back, we depended upon phone calls, texts, facebook, and letters. Eventually we kind of naturally fell into a "system" that we follow to this day.
1) Whoever gets up first sends the other a good morning text, and we text until one has to go to class.
2) We text each other at lunch to see how the day is going.
3) When I get off work, he calls and we have a short conversation just to talk about our day thus far.
4) Finally, we call each other right before we are both about to go to sleep. We usually have a long hour long conversation, say goodnight, and then we both go to sleep. It's like we live our day together except separately.
