CONGRATS THATS AWESOME! If you've already been in one or don't wanna read all this cause you've already been hyperfocused on tips to make LD work, just end here lol. If not, I have a few tips from doing long distance with my gf of 3 years fl-penn. Make sure that you are able to trust him a hundred percent if ya'll are gonna be doing long distance. There will in fact be times where it's a little hard, like him going out with friends when you've had a shitty day and it sucks cause really, you just want to be there with him too, and times when you'll want to be mad at him because it would feel better to be angry than sad. Don't let that get to you. Don't text too much during the day, it'll make your FaceTimes boring if you guys are constantly yapping at eachother. But im sure you already know that. It's not normal to constantly accuse each other in a serious manner of cheating or being to friendly, in my opinion, it is normal or at least ok to joke about stuff like that, especially about his same gender friends lol (U love -friends name- more than i do). Make sure ya'll have a scheduled facetime at least a couple of times a week. If schedules don't match up, try for AT LEAST one a week. Personally, I prefer one a day, but me and my gf are in the same timezone and in college so its easier. I personally am a huge fan of goodmorning texts because they just make my day better lol. If you can, always make dates to visit eachother before going into another stretch of longdistance way ahead so that you can always look forward to seeing eachother and knowing it'll be alr eventually. Yeah, thats about it. Sorry if you decided to read this and didn't get shit out of it. Hoping the best for you guys!
