Long Distance Relationship Struggling
Helloo
Just putting this out here as I need some advice, maybe some reassurance. My fiance and I have been in a long distance relationship for a year and a half now (our relationship started via ldr). He is planning to come here soon and fingers crossed the plan is marriage, we don't want to do ldr in marriage so he'll be working here in the UK and once ready we'll be moving to where he lives. Its getting to the point where I just want him here with me and struggling to hold on. I've been having a lot of personal issues going on and going through a hard time and of course the ldr does not work. I feel like lately we've been arguing a lot and it has been affecting me considering the other things that have been going on, let's just say this year hasn't been the best. I feel like I'm quite affectionate and expressive in this relationship and he isnt as much and I struggle a bit cause I want the same. His love language is physical touch and when in a ldr there's nothing like that. His an extrovert I'm an introvert but he does make time to talk to me. I just don't know if anyone else feels this way. The frequent arguments are getting to me and I know its just a waiting game but with everything going on its difficult.

I don't need one more sugar fix, but maybe it will help with my sad) grieving heart....$15...

Ever since I stopped doing therapy because of insurance, I've been feeling that old tense and irritable sense of anxiety and stress. I hate that. I was making so many strides and changes during therapy, my therapist would acknowledge all of my progress and accomplishments, and I miss that reassurance. Today I thought about it, and I made those changes! She would always tell me that I chose to...

Do you spend much time together?
LDRs are challenging, but if both people are committed to making it work, and they have the same goal, then it can be done.
How old are both of you?
