Your Love from Afar Challenge: Week 2

Wednesday- What role does music play in your relationship? Do you feel like it brings you together? What are some things you both do together that involve music?

At the beginning of our relationship, we used music to share feelings we were a bit too scared to voice ourselves. One time, we spent the whole night playing music to each other. We each took turns choosing songs that expressed how we felt about each other. When Richard played me Travis’ “Flowers in the Window,” I knew we were something special.

As our relationship grew, listening to music became something we both liked to do when we were hanging out after dinner or doing chores around our flat/apartment. Music has definitely played a part in bringing us together, especially when we reminisce about our time together. We often listen to a song on our way to work or on our drives here and there, and it brings back a beautiful memory and of course, we have to text each other! Music is something that we really treasure. 🙂

Friday- Do you enjoy being in a long distance relationship? Is your outlook positive or negative?

We think “enjoy” is a bit too strong of a word there, haha! Although we know in our hearts that we will not only survive but also thrive in this LDR, it’s obviously not our first choice scenario, shall we say. Especially because we lived with each other for some time before we started our LDR. But we would take this over breaking up with each other any day of our lives. We love each other so much that distance isn’t a good enough reason for us to break it all off. 

There is no doubt that our outlook on our LDR and our relationship in general is positive. Lately, we have been having a lot of conversations about our future between ourselves and with our families. So, as far as we’re concerned, we’re in it for the long haul!Â
