A long distance relationship is one of the biggest tests on a relationship. It is incredibly mentally taxing, and requires a great deal of trust and inner strength. Here are some of the hardest moments:

1. The Moment That Something New Happens in Your Life, They Are The First Person You Want to Tell

They are a big part of your life and it hurts sometimes when you know you can turn to them and tell them right away.

2. When You Hear Your Phone Ring, or Receive a Text You Hope to See Their Name

Not often can you talk to this person but when you do get the chance its all you look forward to.

3. Saying Goodbye

the hardest part is saying goodbye again, after not seeing them for weeks or months before that.

4. Different Schedules

Communication becomes very difficult and time consuming when sometimes availability isn't always possible.

5. Seeing Other Couples Together

You begin to start feeling jealous when you see other couples happy together all the time, making you miss your significant other even more.

6. Arguing

Most of the time your arguments will revolve around communication due to the fact that you can't know everything that the other is doing since they are not with you everyday.

7. Having Different Needs

As time goes on while you and your partner are away from each other you start to learn more about yourself and may have new needs or wants from the relationship

8. Missing Each Other

You are bound to miss each other every hour of everyday, but in the end you know the pain is worth fighting for.
