Long distance is not as simple as it looks.

Long distance relationship is not a joke. It takes time, patience, trust, challenge and many lot more. Many incidents can lead to sacrifice and pain. So if you have a relationship with someone who is far away from you. You may relate to this story.

Here is a story of one of my reader's who sacrifice a relationship for the sake of being away.

"Good day tricia. My name is eddie but ed for short. I'm here in states right now. Can you help me about my enthusiasm right now? Since college I've met celine and we were good friends so on and so forth we've been partner until we graduated. We passed on our board exam. We are office mate in the 1st company that we took on. And eventually as years go by. We had plans in our lives. We will be married and have a good family. But, all of that plans, experiences, and many more have been trashed away in the past. A year back then. I was promote from my job and destined to be assigned here in states. Celine and I at first didn't know what to do. I wanted this promotion for my future and family also. And yet, I set aside my love for celine. Before going here I broke up with celine. I don't know why did I do that. I hurt celine for that one situation. I sacrifice our relationship because I don't want to have a "long distance relationship". I know I was stupid but I didn't know what to do. I was blind in the reality for the promotion. All my hopes, dreams, and plans for me and celine were all gone. I'm sorry for celine for hurting her. Am I stupid tricia for what I've done? Should I go home and say sorry for celine? Will she want me back? Please help me. All concern." -Ed

Tricia:

Hi ed. For me as a girl. I was frustrated for your decision of leaving celine. Because first of all, you know celine for how many years. Since college right? and you both work for the same office. How can you made up your mind so fast and didn't think very deeply. Celine was your life back then but you still choose that job or promotion for the sake of money I guess. I'm sorry for blaming you. Hopefully, You give chance for your relationship with celine. Even if your far away with her you still sacrifice. That's why there is a name for "long distance relationship" Or if you really love celine. All you have to do was go to states, work for money and put up your own family with celine. I don't really know if celine will want you back. Try to communicate with her again and tell her that you're sorry and how you really love her. Tell her how stupid you are for not thinking and making a quick but unreliable decision. Sorry for the harsh words ed. And thank you for sharing your story. Always keep reading.
