Love Me Here, Love Me There...

I can't really remember if I've ever talked about long distance relationships, but it is definitely something I need to get off my chest so to speak. My current beau, has lasting power which is a different speed for me. I feel as though because we aren't able to have sex, our foundation will be much more solid when we do come together. You all who know me or follow my blog, know that I love sex, and you should also know that I refuse to continue to see a man if he is whack in the bedroom. So when it comes to the whole long distance love, I feel like it can be good to an extent, and then rough on me to another. I have a healthy sex life, and to be committed to someone that is far away is difficult for me to grasp. I am a faithful woman so I don't anticipate cheating, so it raises the question, with one partner having a high sex drive and wanting to be in a faithful relationship, but being separated by thousands of miles, is it possible for it to work? I mean, I've been there done that, when my marine ex-fiance/husband was stationed in Iraq how did we keep in contact? Skype, email, and letters, but those get tired quickly when you want to have sex and all you have is your own hands. So can it work, yes? will it work always, and in ever instance, who can be sure? People tell me that if it's meant to be then it will, but what if you put in the extra work does that secure it or make it burn more quickly? I feel like there are too many factors involved to be sure. It just tears me to pieces when I want to think about it logically and its really a matter of the heart. Maybe this will be good for me, a different speed, a chance to love someone without being so cynical about it. Breathing a life of optimism into new found ventures and blossoming relationships.
