Hi Nina,

Yes, LDR, has worked for a few. I had a friend get married, but it was extremely draining on her. But both of them had the rescources, time, money, and commitment to see each other several times a month, and they videochatted several hours a day. It was alot of hard work. In your post, in the course of two years, you have only seen this man twice, and it only seems to be of an intimate nature and being “hidden” from your parents. This makes any relationship whether long distance or local unable to thrive or survive.

In your thread you state he “treats you harshly”. My question is, why would you want to be with a man who does not respect you, does not put any effort to come and see you, you have seen him Only twice in two years, where you have to “hide” this from your parents? Surely you deserve better? Just some thoughts..
