A long-distance relationship (LDR) is a relationship between partners who are geographically isolated from one another.

Couples in long distance relationship face geographic separation and lack of physical contact.

#4. You crave physical intimacy often: Sex in a long-distance relationship doesn’t occur often. You may be able to handle it on your own end, but what about your partner.

#5. You are not the best at communicating: This goes for all relationships but communication is extremely important in long-distance relationships. When there is a problem, you will have to speak to your partner about it. Your boyfriend or girlfriend is not next to you and he or she isn’t able to read your expressions. Open communication is important in this type of relationship and if you struggle with expressing how you feel, you may want to avoid such a relationship.

#6. You have trust issues: Trust issues can be a problem in any relationship, but will play a huge factor in long-distance relationship. In LDRs you don’t have the ability to keep tabs on your partner, instead you have to trust everything that he/she tells you. If you have known trust issues, a long distance relationship is bound to make them worse.
