The people around you stare at you since you accidentally laughed a bit too loudly, so you awkwardly cough and try your hardest not to continue smiling like a total idiot at your phone. You look around to see if the coast is clear and secretly snap a picture of you doing an even sillier expression to send back to them.
The funny thing about long distance relationships is that no matter how many miles are between you both, it’s small moments like these that make you feel as though the miles between you don’t exist. It’s as if your significant other is really physically there whenever you need them.

I can relate so much to the part about waking up and finding that the Skype call didn’t disconnect, LOL. I always am sooooo sad in the morning if I wake up and it had disconnected. xD
this article is so perfect. this is exactly what its like. My boyfriend and I skype almost every night, and its wonderful seeing his face when I wake up in the morning. or on the opposite side, giving him an air kiss and wishing him a good day at work when he has to leave and im still in bed.
“You go home and try to wait patiently for them to be free so you both can hang out. Some days it’s really hard to distract yourself, so you don’t lay there bumming out about the distance. You try to catch up on some Netflix shows, play some games, or maybe go through your social media feeds to look at funny videos and memes.
Other times you’ll look back at old photos of your last visit or re-read some of your text conversations since you miss them so much. You may or may not start tearing up, but hey, you know it’s all a normal part of being in a long distance relationship and you pull yourself together”
This is me 100%!!!
