As previously stated, a long-distance relationship can either fortify or fracture a couple, depending on the strength of their bond. If distance proves to be too great a hurdle and the relationship ends, there's no need to feel ashamed or defeated. It simply means that the relationship was not meant to be.
7. "Missing Someone Is A Part Of Loving Them. If You're Never Apart, You'll Never Really Know How Strong Your Love Is." — Unknown
