Blog EntryLong Distance? ...May 29, '08 6:52 PM
for everyone
I'm staring at a long distance thing. My last became a long distance as well. Philippines to London. This time, much nearer Philippines to Singapore and no visa required to hop a plane to this Merlion country.

I have two advantages going for me; one are the lessons i learned in my previous long distance "yun na", second: i'll have a chance to go there and visit anytime provided i save up for it. Which at this age of budget airlines, ordinary blokes like me can possibly afford.

Well, we haven't personally met yet, she met my two friends already though. Mark who works in Singapore gives her a passing grade, Don who went to Singapore earlier this month for a business trip gave her "two thumbs up".

"pare okay" and he's not only talking about the Physical traits, but the character as well.

I know and already met her sister here.

So the agenda was to take things slow as she suggested and try to get to know each other more. Save up for the Singapore trip and bahala na si Batman!...

LDR? I think I have to lessen my flirting online right now....


A successful LDR and a brand new DSLR...alright!

They say LDR seldom works. I think I have to agree. See what happened to me and Megan Fox.

I've had experiences with LDRs. :) They work if you're both really into each other. That's how my husband and I started. So there's hope Marky...no worries! :D

lol this is a good one haha.. :P

anyway, goodluck marky with the long distance relationship. if i were you. I'll go there and be with her to get to know more about her. After all, you've saved up na din and it's convenient for you to go there.

LDRs are for couples who know each other very well already because by the time they get separated, they have a stronger bond and trust to each other. pero kung maguumpisa pa lang kayo sa relationship... eh mag-isip isip ka na kung gusto mo ba talaga ng long distance.

I've experienced it several times and it's really hard.

So there.. if you're really into her then go. If you're serious then no more flirting online just because you're bored. Goodluck! :)

fudgecookie18 wrote on May 29
hmm.. all i can say is that it never quite adds up to what people tell you.. you know? most of the time people try to put you down and tell you its hard and all that, but really, it's not. they probably tell you that because they don't know what real love is. I know it sounds pathetic and sappy, but its true. The first few months come as a hurdle, but after a while you get used to it, and you get used to the idea of a light at the end of the tunnel.

Long Distance Relationships work, if both of you have:
1.established relationship before the LD stage
2. self-control- lots of this one
3. great love and of course
4. a budget for regular overseas calls.

-Good Luck!

hey online buddy. :) just be careful tho. some things are just to good to be true. you don't want to be tricked, do you? so what you need to do now is move your ass over to singapore, which would normally costs you 8k for a round trip fare via tiger airways, and spend time with this girl. if you like what you'll see, then that's the time you decide if you're gonna go for a long distance love affair. maybe you just like her because a.) you're bored and she's there to give you her full attention b.) there's no other girl around to flirt with so you're settling with her c.) you're dead serious about her. online thing s*cks you know. :)

ayun yun eh! i'm happy for you marky! though LDR would entail a lot of patience... neverending trust at maraming balde ng re-assurance.

i'm telling you now, the distance kills. but if you want to work it out, and believe it will work, then it should be?! dapat both ends have to keep it working. AJA! best of luck! and finally give your heart the chance to smile!

I've been to LDR too - and hey, i'm in the UK who's your previous one? haha kidding. - LDR didn't work for me but we both kept the spark between us so maybe - just maybe - it'll work soon. I still believe LDR works but only if you want to. So, prove everyone wrong.. Goodluck Marky!

basta gusto maraming paraan, pag ayaw maraming dahilan. hehe.

if you started together na tipong sanay to see and be with each other yun yung super hirap pagmag LDR. So you guys are relatively better off because you started out long distance na agad. ;)

come to think of it, there are relationships that dont work despite seeing each other regularly. i guess everything is relevant. and to really live is to take risks.
