I've been in a long distance relationship for 5 years now, still gong strong!

How do you make it work? I've been in a few but after a while the heartache from missing them gets unbearable.

I feel like "making it work" often is working towards a long term goal of living together in the future

It certainly needs a special type of person I think. We are both very independent people for example and we value alone-times.
It helps that we have a common interest that can be shared via the distance: Playing videogames and watching shows like Star Trek together.
