Long Distance Relationship

God.. i miss my best friend.. miss her badly

A long-distance relationship (LDR) is typically an intimate relationship that takes place when the partners are separated by a considerabledistance.

In 2005, according to The Center for the Study of Long Distance Relationships, an estimated 2.9% of US marriages were considered long-distance, with 1 in 10 marriages reported to have included a period at long distance within the first 3 years. This means that in 2005 approximately 3.5 million people in the US alone were involved in long-distance marriages. It is harder to know precisely how many non-married couples are in a long-distance relationship but according to The Center for the Study of Long Distance Relationships there was an estimated 4 to 4.5 million college couples in the US which were in non marital LDRs.

Other forms of communication frequently employed by partners in long-distance relationships include:

Letters

Text messaging

VoIP programs

Social networking websites

Shared online activities (e.g., online games such as MMORPGs)

Shared offline activities (e.g., watching the same movie while talking on the phone and listening to the same songs on radio at same time while talking on phone)

Song For YOU

This number goes through my brain constantly....  5879.29 kilometers.  That's how far away my friend is from me.

She is 5879.29 kilometers away.

We talk several times before.  One the phone, in emails... just about anything we can do to try to make the distance go away.  "I just wish I could hold you" is my mantra. 5879.29 kilometers...

Simply put, she is amazing.  She's so funny, so beautiful, so caring, so intelligent, so... everything.  And it's not crazy infatuation -  I know she's not perfect, nobody is.  She is however perfect for me, everything I've ever dreamed.

I love her with all my heart, all my spirit. But one thing for real, she not coming home.

I couldn't ask for more...  5879.29 kilometers away.
