A few months into the relationship and Zara was already having issues with her partner. The fight was always about who David is seeing behind her back, who he is always calling or texting that they hardly even talk on the phone.
Why he doesn't attend to her messages on time even when she knows that David is quite the busy type.
Prior to the proposal acceptance, Zara had made David understand that she didn't appreciate the distance relationship in any way but she was willing to give it a try because she loved him and didn't want to lose him because of distance or didn't want the distance to act as a barrier.
But now it seems Zara couldn't house her insecurities anymore when she started nagging David about things that may not have been true. But because she has always had a problem trusting people or with a long-distance relationships, it still resurfaced in the long run.
The short story and experience between Zara and David, sparked my question for your guys today;
What Are Your Take On Distance relationships?
As simple and easy as this may sound, a few people would have a lot to say about this and even share their experiences. Most of us have no problem dating people overseas or outside their state and city while to others this is a huge problem and they get so bothered about it.
You and I aren't the same, as such, you can't like or dislike the same thing as me. Your view and opinion on certain things differ from mine as well.
What you like or can condone may not be what I like, nor would have possessed the same strength as you to condone or tolerate certain things.
The truth is, I believe distance relationship has their advantages and of course, their disadvantages as well. I don't really have a problem with it or should I say, I wouldn't have a problem with it if the person involved doesn't make it look like a problem.
To be clear on that, there are certain things we as a person desire and look out for in a relationship or when it comes to a relationship.
And if at any point those expectations are not met, then problems start.
The major things looked out for from a lady's counterpart in a relationship are; love, attention, support, encouragement, faithfulness, etc. There are many more but I only mentioned a few I could easily remember, you can add more if you are a lady or a guy that understands what a lady wants or desires.
I can't speak for the guys because I am not one but I believe every guy desires to be trusted and supported with love, care, and of course loyalty. Just a few I can mention as I am not a guy.
And where the problem arises in long-distance relationships or even relationships as a whole is when all these things aren't met. When a lady starts losing the trust he has for his partner or both then issues would arise. When a lady isn't getting enough attention she deserves from her partner, then she may likely get that attention somewhere else and boom, their relationship starts shaking and crumbling.
Being in a long-distance relationship means you have to step up the game. The love and support level should be higher compared to one in close relationships. The attention and time you make out for your partner are very important and keen. You don't even need to make excuses about this, about being busy and all cause you will surely lose your partner in the long run.
And the truth will be because you didn't do what you ought to have done to keep him or her, and not because it's a long-distance relationship. Don't blame your carelessness and absentmindedness on distance. It has nothing to do with that.
I bet I have already given my view and opinion about long-distance relationships and I will also love to hear from you guys what you have to say about this topic. What is your take on long-distance relationships? Do you believe it works or it can work? And if not, give your reasons as well.
I would truly appreciate your honest responses, thank you!.

Hi @zanoz and thanks for sharing you thoughts about long distance relationships. However, OCD is not the right community for this type of topics, as it meant for topics that don't fit anywhere.
This post would fit in Ladies of Hive community for example.
Here's a guide I put together to help you learn about how communities work -> Communities Explained - Newbie Guide.
Once you posted your post in the right community, you can then cross post it to OCD community. Here's a guide about cross posting.
Please don't delete any post with the purpose of reposting it in another community as that can be considered abuse! Leave this post here, you'll get it right next time.
Okay! The topic wasn't biased to just one gender as in ladies as such I don't think it's a right fit for the community mentioned.
All the same, thank you!
I used to be in a long-distance relationship so I feel everything you said, especially this point :)
So being experienced. What is your take on this trangbaby?
There are things I need to be put in the light or through.
