My first long-distance relationship didn’t work out, but I am sure I would do it again.I’ll admit I used to be that person who looked at long-distance couples absolutely dumbfounded.“Why do that to yourself? You barely know each other, yet you’re jumping into a pretty serious commitment?” 我第一次异地恋没有结果,但我确定我愿意再来一次异地恋。我承认我过去看到异地恋的情侣绝对会很震惊。“为什么要那样对待自己?你们都不怎么了解对方,就急于把自己认真地托付给对方?” But to my own surprise, I found a couple of things about long-distance dating that made it worth the trouble for the beginning of any relationship. 但令我自己惊讶的是,我发现了有几点原因使得异地恋虽然初期会遇到一些麻烦,但仍值得拥有。 Long distance forces you to answer two questions that could save you a lot of time: 想要异地恋不得不先回答两个问题,这样能节省很多时间: 1. Do you trust him or her? 你信任TA吗? 2. Do you trust yourself? 你信任你自己吗? It’s really easy to ignore these questions when your boyfriend or girlfriend is with you all the time because the lack of space between you two doesn’t allow you to test your trust. 男女朋友总是腻在一起,真的很容易忽略掉这些问题,因为你们之间没有距离来测验你们之间的信任。 |
