Dear
Rob,
I have a problem and my question is this:
Can a long-distance relationship last for 7 years? What is the
absolute maximum number of years that a long-distance relationship
can last for??
PLEASE HELP!!!
can you possibly offer me any advice by email??
Thanks,
Laura
Hi Laura,
There is no limit to how long a long distance relationship can last.
But there are questions that need to be answered for your
relationship to continue in a healthy way:
1. Why so long before marriage, or at least being together
permanently?
2. Do you keep promising each other that you'll be together soon?
Does this lie work for the both of you?
3. Are you sure this is a relationship with a marriage goal in it's
future?
4. Have you spent every possible moment together, vacation time,
holidays, etc., whenever financially possible?
5. Do you both travel to meet the other, taking turns, or does one
person do all of the traveling?
6. Are there other reasons why you don't date someone closer to you?
Are you afraid of breaking out of this 'relationship comfort zone'
even if it means you'll never get married or really be with someone
full time?
7. Is the passing of time the only obstacle for this relationship
continuing or have you changed as a person from when you both first
met? Have you matured and now you want more?
8. If you were to suddenly say to your long distance partner that
you're quitting your job and moving in with them would they be
supportive of this change? Would they accept you on a moment's
notice?
The answers to these questions, even to only a couple of them, will
reveal your true feelings on your partner and your long distance
relationship and the direction you need to go to in order to
continue the relationship or move on into another direction with
your life.
Best wishes,
Rob.
