Many of us here have lovers thousands of miles away from us physically. And I would like to know how you cope with this distance? Because sometimes when the going gets tough, the thought of giving up does surface. I personally think the lack of physical contact is really hard. No kisses, no hugs...

i speak to him everyday and we text several times a day

We also text 2 or 3 times daily and speak on the phone twice a week. I do find it very hard though not having the physical contact.

E-mails, phone calls and every penny and vacation time spent on travel to Turkey. I am leaving in 2 weeks to see him and can't wait. We have been doing this for 1 1/2 now and if it is meant to be, it will be.

Good Luck and best wishes to you!!

Emails, chatting on MSN Messenger, text messages, her photo as the background on the desktop of my computer ( ) .. put it obviously isn't the same as being side by side with the person

I am in the same position.He is in Ankara and i am in England.The distance is really difficult and we text all the time and i seem to be on the phone constantly.Having said all that we really want to be together so we are going to make it work.Talking on the phone isnt the same as being side by side but we havent got alot of choice,well not for the moment anyway.I am going over at the end of december.Can't wait,i only got back last week.Crazy i know! good luck to everyone in a similar position.
