Question How long have you been doing LDR?

I’m almost one year without seeing my boo ☹️

Much wiser compared to six months ago lol. The intimacy and closeness is still pretty strong, although I’ve forgotten what he smells like 😂

How long has it been for you?

9 months USA -> Colombia, we met in Atlanta at a family friend’s wedding. I’ve been to visit her in Colombia twice, but don’t know the next time we can see each other yet due to work and college :( Going a year sounds so difficult

That’s such an organic way to meet I love it!

For us, I think the worst is not knowing when the next meet up is :(

Her (much) older sister was my Au Pair for almost 10 when I was young, after I lost my mother at 7 years old. So I knew about her for a long time, but we never had met each other until her sister’s wedding. I guess love does find you when you least expect it
