Long distance relationships. Yes, they're hard and not the most convient. You have to be able to commit to someone you may <br />have not even met in person, or might not see very frequently. They're hard. But, in a way, it's better. You don't fall for <br />someone based on their looks. Yes, there's that initial attraction. You saw someone's picture, thought they were cute, and <br />decided to message them. But as you keep talking, you fall for their personalities, not their looks. And I'm not saying <br />normal relationships are all materialistic, and are based on attraction the other's appearence. But, with long distance <br />relationships, it's easier to overlook the other person's looks. You talk more, get to know the other person more because, <br />well, that all you can do. That's where it gets hard. In long distance relationships, you don't get much physical affection. <br />It's all about emotions, and that's what makes the bond stronger. There are no good-night kisses, no good-bye hugs, no <br />cuddling sessions. But, in a way, it's all worth it. You build up to that moment where you finally meet, and it's magical. <br />Everything you felt for that person, gets even stronger, even though you didn't think that was possible. That first kiss, <br />well, as corny as it sounds, it's like fireworks. What you've been longing for all this time, what you've had too many <br />dreams to count about, that momenent, finally happened. That's when you know it was all worth it. When those emotions fire <br />up to an extreme you didn't even know possible. That's when you know, all the rough times you guys have gone through were <br />worth it, and there's nothing to regret.<br /><br />Tashira Rodriguez<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/long-distance-relationships/
