Why Long Distance Relationships Aren't So Bad

I know what you're thinking; YIKES! Why would I wanna date someone thats in a different state, country or just far away. Well from someone who has been doing it for a year today, it really isn't that bad and ill tell you why!

1. We have our own lives


He is a D1 Athlete who plays Golf and is always busy and honestly never around to hang out. I'm in a sorority (Razzle Dazzle Dalpha), so we are both really busy. He has his golf team and his friends and I have mine. We live our two separate lives and then we come together to combine them. He meets my friends and sisters and I hang out with his Golf Team at University of Virginia (go Hoos; sorta). It honestly works out for the best because we cannot get caught up in each other in our free time and branch out!

2. Trust is strong


What's a relationship with out trust? We trust each other more than anybody else. I know what you're thinking; "I would never know/he would never know." Thats not the point because we would never do it.

3. Yes I do miss him

I personally think being in a long distance relationship requires less emotion but yes of course I miss him sometimes. We miss each other but not enough to do anything irrational.

4. Seeing eachother is awesome


Its kind of like when you come home and you're dog is all happy to see you. Minus the barking, we don't bark at each other.

5. Conversations are wonderful

Since we are far, we find so many thinks to talk about and really its lovely. Talking builds a relationship and makes it so strong. Knowing a lot of things about you're signficant other makes it more special

6. Moments are so special

We really appreciate seeing each other and the moments we have because we may not get another one for a month or two. We savor it; Its good; it works for us.

7. Love, is Love, is Love, is Love and you can't find one like ours.

Its pretty strong so stop questioning our decisions.

Happy Anniversary Daniel

It is no secret that many American traditions have changed over time. As we grow older we change in so many ways that it only makes sense that we also change the way we celebrate special occasions. Of course when it comes to the holidays there are some family traditions that many of us still excitedly look forward to, whether it is eating your favorite dish or seeing favorite cousin. However, we all know that the holidays have overall changed a little from what they used to be.

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement. Before that day, I never really thought about being a friend to myself, and at the time, I didn't really know what it meant. Now, I realize that you can't fully be there for other people unless you're there for yourself, too. You can't show up for others until you're willing to show up for yourself.

Here are five things everyone should learn in order to be a better friend to themselves. These steps are hard, but they're so worth it.
