1500 Miles

Hi and welcome to 1500 miles! This blog is all about distance in relationships and how I can maybe try and help with the pain and getting used to having the other person in your life far away. Or even give you little ways to help keep you and that person connected across the miles.

To give you a little background on myself and my situation, I have gone through all of this just recently. My boyfriend and I have been dating for almost 2 years now and he just graduated from college last year. Since he has been just a little guy, he has had a dream of living in a place where he can ski anytime that he wants. So, of course, after college he moved out to Salt Lake City, UT. Being able to pursue his life long dream has made him the happiest and I am extremely happy and excited for him. But, the big downfall is we are miles and miles away from each other. This is a bit dramatic way of describing the whole thing, but it was almost a “life changing” experience. Many changes have come because he has left, but I can honestly say that they all have been for the better.

So, like I said, I’ve been through it all it seems like. I’ve cried all the tears and have said, “Just one more hug” way too many times, so I know where each and everyone of you are coming from who has someone far away from. I’m going to let you know what has helped us get through some hard times and what other things that you could possibly do to stay in touch. I’m going to try and give you the “in’s-and-out” of keeping the relationship alive and the connection between you and him/her strong.

Much love to you all —
