The BIGGEST Mistake You Can Make in a Long Distance Relationship

Just here to let folks know that it can work if you both want it to. My partner and I were long distance for the first 2.5 years of our 7 year relationship and are now getting married.

the distinction between 'be in conversation' vs. 'be in company' is great - thank you!

Been doing long distance for almost a year. Being in company is key. We even do household chores with video call on. When I was ill, I'd even nap while he was working, with video call on, and it made me feel looked after.

I only believe in long distance relationship for a short period. When it goes on for too long, it doesn't make sense anymore.

I always enjoy your content! However, the camera switching back and forth every few seconds was extremely distracting and made it difficult to watch. I ended up just listening to it while doing something else.

I just dumped my bf..we haven't seen each other since last December. He is too busy with work and just loves bombs with texts and calls. Done!

Great content, but way too many jump cuts in the videos lately. Takes me out of what is being said.

I went through a break up about a year ago that was very painful (I thought he was the one, but he did not think I was the one). We were together for only six months but it was a very significant one for me. I recently found out he had started a new relationship 4-5 months after we broke up. That hurt me so bad because we were still kind of talking- nothing flirty, but still checking with each other and he never mentioned anything about someone else until I saw a picture on social media he posted of a dog that I knew was not his (turned out to be hers). He then said he believed we were not compatible and that is why he broke it off with me, but that is not the reason he gave me a year ago. I recently muted him on social media so I don’t see posts of that damn dog and accept that it’s over, but I am still very heartbroken and hurt that he was able to move on in months and I was left very broken. I know I have a lot of work to do on my own self esteem and not ready for anyone else, but any advice on how to cope with the process of healing would be appreciated ❤.

Im just walking away of one thanks to all your advices helping me out figuring out the situation and watching for myself THANKS

I don't think long relationships work as well in terms of levels of intimacy

This is amazing! I love it when you share parts of your life that shows your “human side” where you tell us how you deal with situations on your relationship. Thank You 😍😍

Damn every time I randomly click on your videos thinking that I probably won’t find anything super new because I watched SOOO MANY of these lol and yet i always find some helpful stuff! Thank you!

Excellent, brilliant advice Thank you Matthew. You are a refreshing voice of reason and are greatly appreciated

My mom and stepfather never met each other in person for the first 5 years of their relationship. They were online bridge partners. When they finally met in person, they knew they were soulmates. Today they are still in love and happily married after 30 years.

I think everything you have to say is applicable to me as a mature person, you advice and wisdom is limitless

Omg I had a long distance relationship with a narcissistic person. A red pill guy. Gosh the trauma 😥 I have commented a lot of times about this… it was just heartbreaking to be lied to like that And btw don’t think that you have to watch movies together and that’s quality time. The second time we met we mostly stayed home watching tv and it was so isolating. I doubt he wanted me there just to spend the time being physically next to me. He was still thinking about himself and his needs everyday. When you only watch episodes, and after the episode finishes you check your phone until the new episode starts, you’re just ignoring your partner’s presence. And it’s hurtful

Looooove it!!!! You need to do this more often!!!❤🎉!!!

Gosh, this channel is so helpful, thank you!

Matthew, great content & beautifully shot... the editing jumps too much! I'm getting a bit of motion sickness.
