View Full Version : Why am I losing faith in my LDR?

I really wanted to be closer to this girl. She IS, from what I can gather, perfect. All I've ever wanted. We ended up dating after speaking for 9 months, and have been dating since April, so four months. Being 16, four months is quite a long time, no? I understand some people may think "oh, well it's LD so it's easier to keep the relationship lengthy" I don't think that's right considering the effort and commitment you need to put it, but back to my question:
We haven't really been clicking lately. That all changed today, now we're back to normal. Sometimes I feel like she's not the one so I should give up, but other times I am hopelessly addicted to her. We're thousands of miles away, but she's moving here early 2016. Any idea what's causing this?

I have depression, so she thinks that the best thing to do is not try to "anger" me, even though I've said I'd never be angry with a girl. We spoke about it last night and it's fine now. That's the only problem with had. Few fights before, but nothing big. Can't find a way to see her. She's tied down with school and I'm only 16.

She's 19, I'm 16. Any idea? I KNOW I love her, just.. something's off. Could it be my depression? I didn't feel like this off the tablets.

I think its because you guys are so far away from each other. It could also be your depression toying with your emotions

Relationships need proximity with each party which is something you can't get with a long distance relationship. I think that your depression will make this worse because you would still be alone in the relationship, and it may be unlikely you guys will meet at such a long distance. This isn't your fault, so please don't think that. You just need someone more closer to home, that's all.

Long distance relationships never last long, a relationship requires being close to one another, physical contact, face to face communication, plus it could also be that fact that this girl is three years your elder, and and though it's only three year's she's in a whole different phase of life, she's an adult. I say you should quit while you're ahead and move on.

aw, that's so sweet. also impressive you've held out for so long together in that LDR. Good job man :)
As for why your ardor for her cools at times...perhaps you're suffering from pubescent hormonal swings or something?

Long distance is hard, if it's meant to be then it will get better :)
