Thoughts on dating long-distance

Living and breathing proof that you can in fact date long distance!! My boyfriend and I have been dating long-distance for almost 3 years. I never thought that I would be able to be with somebody, not seeing each other everyday or even getting to talk throughout the day; even though he is only a little over an hour away, for this length of a time. I try to linger on the fact that I don't need to live a life, depending on a man; but it's nice to have one. I wouldn't trade the life I have lived dating my honey long-distance. It hasn't been easy but we make the best of the time we spend together over weekends, college breaks, and summer vacation. I am thrilled to be able to be moving back home where the long-distance dating comes to a close.(although moving out of my house with my roomies will be heartwrenching!!!) However, how different will life be knowing that I no longer will be away from him longer than a couple hours or days? How much will this change our relationship? 

Blessed with the best man I could ever ask for.
