Long Distance Love

Can long distance love really last??? The long distance love i mean is actually a couple which is separated by different country, not those which is only different state, as in my opinion, those which is in the same country but different state is still ok, at least they are still within the same country and similar environment, especially for Malaysia, as it is not a big country.

I do have a friend that having a girl friend that further her study at Australia. Recently, they have just broken up. They have been a couple for almost a year in Malaysia. When they were forced to separate due to the study stuff, they maintain their relationship for another 7months, but unfortunately, they still ended by breaking up. Many of us actually feel that it was unworthy that they ended up in such way, but nothing can be done.

In my opinion, every couple actually needs a really good communication between them to enable them to maintain their relationship. A good communication could help them to understand each other more. Try imagine, when you are in local while your girl friend were located at overseas, can you 2 still maintain the good communication between you 2?? Yes! it's true that you could still communicate through telephone or online chatting, but will it really as useful as face to face communicating?? One of the major disadvantages will definitely come to the different environment. Everything happening around both will be totally different, even one could tell the other one that what's happening around them but it is still difficult to totally understand on what one side is trying to say because of the different environment. We could hardly understand the situation when we don't really feel the environment before. Therefore, as time passes, the topic to communicate between the couple will actually getting lesser and lesser. As this happen, the understanding between the couple will be getting shallow and shallow as well. Misunderstanding that will affect a couple's relationship will easily occurs during that time.

As a conclusion, i feel that long distance love is really difficult to maintain, even long distance friendship is not that easy to maintain. Therefore, try to avoid to separate with your beloved one too far for a long period to avoid any negative situation especially communication problem. Anyway, i couldn't say that long distance love definitely cannot be maintain as nothing is impossible in this world, just try to avoid this happen if it is possible.
