long distance relationship sucks... especially if you live thousand miles away from each other, 2 & 1/2 hrs away isnt a long distance anyway... there's a saying... if there's a will there's a way... you could still each other if you want to... Iv been into long distance relationship and lemme tell you this its fucked up!
there were times when you want to hug him, comfort him, kiss him but all you can do is a virtual kiss.
but just like the old saying goes "Distance makes the heart grow fonder." good luck to yah
