THOUSAND MILES AWAY

Ever loved someone who lives on the other side of the planet?  To the point that you never know when you might see that person because there are certain limitations that permit you to do so.  I have experienced this kind of situation.  It is really hard because you do not see the person as much as you want to and you cannot talk to that someone personally because he is just so far from you.

Although it is somewhat exciting because you never know if you will meet them soon or not, it hurts deep inside because as a person who is in love, certainty is of great importance.  Another problem with long distance love is that you never know if the other person is being honest with you.  He can tell you that he loves you even if he does not mean it, but you will never know.

Two important things that I believe would make a long distance love work are hope and optimism.  Hope because you try to put your everything to it and wish for everything good to happen although you are not entirely sure of the outcome.  Optimism because there comes a time wherein the loneliness of not being with him/her might eat you up.  Question here is, how long can you maintain your daily doses of hope and optimism?

A long distance love is something really fragile.  Yes, you can talk to one another on Viber, Facebook, YM or Skype, but the feeling of being close to someone else can be a serious threat to what you are feeling towards each other.
