Getting through the day to day life of being without your
other half is one thing, but what about when there are huge obstacles facing
you? Anything can happen. One can lose their job, finances can become tighter,
your feelings towards each other might lessen to the point you’re reluctant to
communicate daily and you might start even realising how shitty the distance
truly is – not just because of the lack of physical contact.
Sometimes the distance can get in between two people in more
ways than just mileage. And this is quite common. Sure, being in a relationship
with someone you love is the most beautiful thing that has happened to you and
believe me, it is. But, what about the times you've felt so low that you've
both hit rock bottom and you can’t cope any more? What do you do then? The most
common answer is obviously – you’d fight for each other right? But sometimes
the line between fighting for each other and
fighting with each other becomes
fuzzy to the point you can’t even remember the last time you had a serious
discussion without a fight. My sister told me something that really stuck
with me when Davy and I were going through a stressful patch during the last
few weeks. Love isn't supposed to be
easy. It’s meant to challenge you, provoke you, make you think about things
differently -not just in your own point of view but theirs too-, and it’s meant
to make you a better person when you overcome those challenges as a couple.
