axesladeI've joined an LDR forum, but just looking through...I don't feel like I belong. They all seem to be straight couples. And it just feels...wrong. So I started searching...not on a forum, but I found this, and it just....
I'm in a lesbian long distance relationship. My girlfriend and I have been together for approximately 5 yrs now and most of it has been spent away from each other. We're both from the Caribbean, however I spent my college bound years in the US and she opted for studies in our home country. That arrangement lasted for 3 yrs. I returned home and we spent a year together.
Now she is in another country studying, so we're back to square one almost. It doesn't get easier I suppose. Every time I leave her I feel the same loneliness I have been feeling for the past 4 years but I've never regretted it and I made the choice to be with her because she's the girl I've always wanted and I'm committed to making our relationship work.
It is taxing, emotionally and physically, but we're both looking forward to the day when we can be completely together. Hopefully within the next couple of years.
My heart melted a teeny bit when I read that.

Okay. I can live. It won't be pleasant, but it'll be more than worth it.
