Abstract
One of the hardest types of relationship to make successful is a long distance relationship. I started dating my husband in my very early teens. We always lived 5 minutes away from each other. Any time I was upset or just needed reassurance from someone I loved, he was just a 5-minute trip up the street to make it all better. This all changed the day he decided to join the United States Marine Core. After three very long months with 0 communication while he was in basic training, he moved to North Carolina. That 5- minute trip up the street turned into a miserable 11- hour trip, with tired heavy eyes and a painful car ride. The hardest part was realizing that after spending a couple days with each other that it was all coming to an end and once again you would have to say goodbye. Another major factor was trust. How could you trust someone who lives 11 hours away from you and was constantly around the influence of single marines? It became a very hard a stressful job to keep this relationship working, but somehow we did it and made it to marriage.
