1. Well, it’ll be harder for you than it is for us for one reason. You guys know what it’s like to be together all the time. We don’t. So naturally, the distance is a lot easier for us than it will be for you guys. But the ways to keep the relationship alive are the same, and that’s through lots of communication, committing to each other, trusting each other (although since you’ve been together for 6 years i doubt that will be a problem) and knowing that it’s the little things that matter most when being long distance (random phone calls, packages in the mail, good morning messages, etc.).
2. I’m not really interested in “partnering up” but I would promote you if you were to make an advice column. :)
3. That is advice, anon. Lol, sorry.
4. It counts as long distance during the time that you are away from each other.
