When I added this to my list things were looking down. 3 years in the relationship, two of them long distance. And then I picked up and went abroad for the summer leaving issues unresolved and making our 250 miles apart 3000 miles. However after a rocky start we starting understanding the adage “absence makes the heart grow fonder” and began appreciating each other more, and realizing how insignificant our fights were in the long run. I returned back to the states and it has been almost a month of bliss. I don’t think I’m ready to call the relationship ‘fixed’ just yet, but we’re certainly getting there and I couldn’t be happier about it.
