Have you ever loved someone from afar? Literal or figurative distance?


Me and my girlfriend fell in love in distance. We are still in a long distance relationship. We're together for seven years now. We are going to get married soon and i'll move to Finland so we could start our together life.
I'm excited for you that you'll be together soon!!
I appreciate it. Thank you for MHO as well :)
Not really love, but certainly like a lot and be really interested in.
Thanks for the MHO
Yes.
And despite all that I think it for the best to stay apart.
I would agree that it could be best in some cases.
Yeap. And now he's gone.
Don't let it slip away

Yes I have. It caused me to feel lonely and cold at night every day and it did not make lot of sense because I've never had a bed partner but just thinking about unrequited love would keep my body cold and lonely every night at around bed time. I asked about it online and somebody said nature makes you feel that way because you are genetically programmed to look for a mate.
Yeah i do, most of my relationships were long distance. It nice and lonely
Yes. My girlfriend lives in another state. We're doing whatever we can to be together but it's hard in the mean time. I think the effort we're making to be together is representative of our feelings for one another. Neither of us would try this hard for a superficial romance, and I think it also shows that we're both able and willing to work to make our relationship last. Unless she's hiding something devastating from me I want to marry her at some point down the line, and I think she feels the same way. I think distance can be extremely beneficial to a relationship if it's meant to be a lasting one. People say it's hard and it definitely is, but relationships are hard in general. If you want something easy then go find a whore and a hotel room. Figuratively speaking you could describe a healthy relationship as "Continuously minimizing the distance between two people without repelling each other", so I'd say it's possible to love from a distance as long as the distance continues to shrink.
I knew she was getting cash from afar 😂 newsflash. She’s fucking other guys.
I am just happy I’m right.
Congrats! You got what you wanted and are now happy! Instead of just admiring, wishing, from afar. Imagine if you didn’t..
**Go for it! You never know! In this case, it worked out fine! (Very rare, but possible!)
I never did from afar, I always took chances.
Thank you! I dont know how I got so lucky in this situation.
Yeaaano. Closely enough though. You have to be determined to make it happen though, long distance relationships is a massive lie on your own selves. That's why you have to take it to a committed level to figure someone out and make the plunge to meet eachother before finally finding a place to live. I'm not interested in it taking several years though, and that's what it'd take. At least, at least within the first year or so you figure out eachother so so much. A single day of typing or voice chat is like a week or month of real life stuff because you get the benefit of constant flowing communication.
I’m curious how do you garner love actually from silence afar? Even if it means only looking but seldom communicating or it becomes awkward as usual if it’s attempted? Does that imply what?
For me, it started out as him helping with some questions about travel (didnt know anything about one another) and developed into getting to know each other through letters etc. It may not have been love then but I knew that this man was perfect for me, and I for him. But we were so far, I didn't think we'd ever be able to be together.
Sorry for my late reply, but that sounds magical.
I’m not so lucky, I thoughtvhis deep gazes and still staring listlessly at me meant something. I have rarely spoken to him though I come across him daily , yet he and I have nothing to talk about.
I’m creative and end up occupying my mind but when I sit and think, it saddens me that it’s only this much.
Does he know how you feel?
He does in not direct proposal but in me complimenting him as handsome, charming and or saying his sweater looks amazing on him.
Yes he stares n stares at me I love that game it’s intoxicating. But I know he’s got his own ideas.
I saw him once randomly walking with a girl , with a long paisley skirt, so super thin and ok I felt ok good at least he’s not closed off permanently. Like so what if it’s not me but I know why he Checks my assets out ( yes I like that attention too because I’m very sensual more than him too)
Bad I know but I love it 🥰
@StingRayxoxo My longest distance relationship was about 3 miles away from me, I think the fact I'm still singles suggest I need to spread my relationship net lol
Lol maybe!! My boyfriend says all the men in my city are fools. Haha
Haha no, he isn't from this city/state. I had to find him from far away and accidentally.
Lmao hopefully more than 10miles!
LDR rn. About to change after almost 3 years. It's a good experience actually and I would say we have an even stronger bond than most couples I know. I mean, you wouldn't really pay so much money and travel for 5h to meet someone you didn't love. It can be hard sometimes but I feel even more empowered to keep trying when I realize how amazing it is that we love each so much
Oh wow this literally describes the situation between me and this girl I've been talking to we've literally said that we are in love we care about each other but we live so far apart we can't be together and we aren't fans if long distance relationship so we agreed to provide each other with the emotional comfort that a bf/gf would provide until we get a GF/BF of our own
i have another excuse to post this again :3
The emoji interrupts the link again!!
Hahaha!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Literally, for 3 years while I was in college. 150 miles
She was my "HS Sweetheart." I was the dumb one. After dating in HS for 2 years & long distance for 3, I let her go. I felt we were to perfect together. Perfect in so many ways even to the point we looked to much alike. I even began thinking she could pass for my sister. Why these feelings surfaced after 5 years, I don't know. I often wander how we would have been married. If we would have had any fights. She was so compatible & so easy to get along with.
My wife now is awesome. She truly loves me. I like to say I couldn't do much better. But we are not near as compatible. Just maybe what makes us work is we complement each other.😀
All my crushes have been at a distance, I find it difficult to read intent towards me and fear hurting the object or ruining our friendship too much to say anything.
No one at the moment though so no need to tell me what I already know :)
“ I’ll try to keep my distance; tell you I love you when you’re not listening”
Haha always likes that line.. as I could relate.
I'm crushing on someone right now, but they told me they don't want to date at school, so I guess I'll try not to like them too much.
No, because I have to truly get to know them first in order for that to happen.
Still do. I only see a friend who I love dearly a couple of times a year...
Yes, I feel for 2 ladies I had the hots for sadly both were married and I knew their husbands. So I had to look on from a far and only dream !!!
No seems people who like that don't want commitment or use person
Yeah. Both geographically, but also in my vicinity and I didn't want them to know. LOL
Not really I guess. Not the love you're talking about. I could, but don't have the chance. Lol.
Yes, I’m currently loving someone from afar right now.

😐😐😐😐😐wtf?
I can read minds.
I feel the was based on something
Sometimes I come across things and I get a feeling that it's meant to be shared.
It sounds lovely but in real life it would probably be troubling.
No, I have to get close with them first.
My last girlfriend...
Yes I had an online girlfriend
