20 Jul Sailor Surprises His Girlfriend In The Most Adorable Way After Six Months At Sea

Everyone knows that long-distance relationships are at the best of times difficult, and at the worst of time unbearable. Whether you blame it on the insidious power of Disney movies or an elaborate capitalist plot, we’re all hooked on the idea of finding true love and will consequently do just about anything to find that one special person. I mean, just switch on your television or tune into a Hollywood movie, and I can assure you that one of the major plot-lines will revolve around a romantic liaison.

But whilst such media forms have forever ruined our expectations of what romantic bliss entails, they do a good job of speaking to one reality: that the path of true love hardly ever runs smooth.

And this is a truism which only proves itself to be more of a reality when you’re in a long-term relationship. Being away from your loved one for a significant amount of time can not only put a strain on the relationship, but foster unpleasant feelings of resentment and jealousy.

That is why every magazine, relationship blog and podcast will speak to the importance of maintaining open lines of communication and scheduling “date” time, for example, whilst engaged in such an affair. But if you are, or are soon to be in a long-distance partnership, I’d try to silence the alarm bells, as there are plenty of couples out there that prove that long-distance is not the end.

In fact, one couple from Halifax showed that their enforced six month separation was only the beginning to their love story.
