3000 Miles Away

"Busy Missing You." The joint blog of @theguardianofdragons and @geek-of-baker-street following our long distance relationship from England to America.

Please please please pretty please get back together. You're the light of the - tumblr long distance relationship tags- life

Life doesn’t work like that, I’m afraid. Whatever happens, happens.

So I decided to do something different. I did graffitis in my town with the quote ''Marie mon Coeur'' . She liked it apparently!

That's super awesome!! I'm glad it worked out, that sounds like a super unique present for her! 😀

[3000milesfromyou]

OH MY FUCKING GOD. Today is our 1st month anniversary and I don't know what present to make her! (in a LDR) please help me...

Get something that will remind her of you! Maybe make a mixtape of songs you both like, or a pair of matching bracelets. We used to have the simple rubber bracelets which were super cool. Good luck!

Hey guys.

So, things end. Thanks for the ride, if you joined us at the end or the beginning.

I don’t know what’s going to happen, and I don’t know if we’re going to be back.

So, for now, bye. And I wish you all luck.

Let's go somewhere only we know

[3000milesfromyou]

I just want my arms around your waist and your head against my chest

I just joined this community to try and help myself understand the ways an LDR can work, we've just been together a month and I already feel so strongly about him, how do I stay sane without being able to be with him?

Lots of Skype dates and messages, communication is key. Set things to look forward to, talk about things you’ll be able to do when you’re together. Not only will it give you more topics to discuss, it’ll also help make the time apart go faster. Watch films and tv shows, read books, find other interests that you both have in common. 

We have matching wristbands which help remind us of each other when we’re apart, which may help? Finding things that you both can share, even when apart, is fun and exciting, and a nice reminder that they are thinking about you. Other gifts are nice too, surprise letters, little presents.

Best wishes, and good luck!

hope ya don’t mind me adding stuff to this!! i also recommend sleeping together in calls! (if you can) my boyfriend and i don’t go to bed or wake up at the same time when we have school, but that doesn’t stop us from sleeping together.

sleeping together will help you guys have a deeper connection💕

devyn and i actually have matching bracelets and shirts too; i highly recommend both of you buying a blanket and sleeping with it for a week or so (or however long ya want) and mail it to the other person. dev mailed me his blanket and i can’t go to bed without it. the scent helps me fall asleep and makes me feel closer to him <3

Thank you so much!! We are doing our best to hold together, I think we can do this! -C

[3000milesfromyou]

Wooooooah, 1,000 of you?! Thanks so much for all of your support! The past two years have been a blast, some of the best in my life.

As a 1,000 follower special, we’re thinking of doing a little Q&A, so if anyone has any questions, feel free to ask!

My partner is literally an angel and has helped my mental health significantly. They are the sweetest kindest person ever and I love them so much. Plus they look like an elven flower child and have Legolas hair.

I'm gonna be honest

Long distance relationships hurt.

They do.

You see your s/o being happy in their everyday life with their friends and it hurts to not be able to experience that with them.

It hurts when they are so very sad, it breaks your heart because you can’t hold them and tell them it’s okay.

It hurts seeing them do some things and imagining yourself with them because you are constantly reminded that you can’t.

You can’t do a lot.

But what you can do is be the reassuring call or text at three in the morning when they’re having a bad day.

You can plan for your future with them, you can plan your first meeting and make it any fairy tale you want.

You can be the reason they smile in the morning and before they go to bed.

You can do so much for them and just because you aren’t there, it doesn’t mean you don’t love them any less than someone who sees their s/o everyday.

I love my s/o, and I wouldn’t have anyone else.

When you actually matter to someone, they will make time for you. No lies, no excuses.

Hope everyone had a chance to be with their loved ones on Valentine’s day yesterday

But if not, I wish you the best of luck and hope you see each other soon!
