Physical distance, such as the time or distance that we need to travel to reached certain destination. There are another distance that we will look in, the distance between two hearts. There was a old folks say: "The longest distance is even i'm close to you side by side but you didn't notice my existance..." well i guess you heard the song before, but i forgot the title already, im just ' borrow' it for a while as a refference...hahaha...
During study time, many broke up because of physical distance that tear them a part from one another, and individually they look for other chance and let it to slip into their relationship, it end up broking up with one and starting another with newly met one...its kinda fragile. But how can we hold those relationship even tough the physical distance are so far away?! well, we look in some facts that might help to maintain it. Trust, Communication and Understanding is very important. We need trust to diminish the influence of negative fantasy of the other half, we need to communicate to one another in order to know their well-being and finally we need to understand each other likes and dislikes, love and hate and the way they response to certain sensitive matters...
I guess the second part are easy to understand, so we will look more on the other two facts. First we look at the Understanding parts. well if we know one don't like certain things or behavior for sure we won't do those things and behavior in front of them, its good; but is it enough?not just in front of them, but Always no matter who we met or what we doing or wherever we are we MUST NOT do things that they don like or even hates. In order to be a understandable by others we need to understand others first. After we understand others, we must have action to support and prove that we understand someone, there are some ways: we avoid and won't do anything that sensitive enough to bring up arguements or even worsen things, we shall not try to cross the boundary even for once, no way.
The second fact that we can look into is trust. Before we trust others we need prove from those we want to put our trust on to show the why we should trust them. Its not only the matter of talking or oral promises, but we NEED to realitily implement and do what we promised and said. A single broken promise might left a deep scar in an on-going relationship...
