Long distance only works when you know the distance part has an end date. And not a "we're going to get a visa in about a year" thing, but a firm, "I'm moving back on the 23rd" thing. If you don't know when you'll be physically together again it makes it hard to carry on dating since after a while there won't seem much point, and more convenient people around you/them will start seeming more appealing. Speaking from a years long experience that did not end well. I still think long distance can work, but only with the end date prerequisite.

"Dating" or "being in a relationship"? If you're going to take it long-term, it would be reasonable for one of you to move. Freelance should make that easier.

I also hear things tend to work out well when you move to the other person's city (without discussing it), and say, "Surprise!!!"

Long distance is a time sucker, a money sucker and a love hater. There's the whole "distance makes the heart grow founder thing" but that gets super old super fast. Also, someone is always carrying the relationship travel load more heavily than the other, and it will wear the traveler down.

Hi Fellow Moms/Wives!❤️
Very taboo question.

Anyone else have a hubby with a very low sex drive? I initiate most of the time and it really makes me feel neglected. I have talked to him about it but I think we just have different views on how to feel connected? I think once every 2 weeks is harsh. I prefer 3x-4x a week but he says that is a lot. Am I crazy to expect of this?

I gained weight during my last relationship (probably around 30 lbs, and I’m 5’9”). Before my relationship, I felt like I could get any guy. But I’ve been single for 2 years now and it’s been so hard to date. I’m not sure if maybe I’ve lost confidence, but I legitimately don’t know how to get a guy to be interested. Any pointers?
