6 Cool Advantages of Being in a Long Distance Relationship

Don and I met when we were doing our Master degree in Curtin University, Perth. At the time, we got to know each other as “classmates”. I was in a long-term relationship and he was pursuing another classmate of ours. 

Towards the end of my last semester, we found ourselves single and decided to give Don+Kay a try. Of course, there was a catch, in 4 weeks time, he was heading off for a 7-week road trip across America and I was heading back to Kuala Lumpur, my hometown. We didn’t know when we would be in the same country next, but you can’t stop loving someone just because they’re not in the same country. We decided to make the distance work. 

I often talk about how sucky it is to be in a long distance relationship. In light of keeping things optimistic and looking at the silver lining in my long distance relationship, I found a few things that have made me a better person because of my long distance relationship.

6 Sucky Things About Long Distance Relationship.

Blue for Miles in Bunker Bay

After the wedding, we had the day to ourselves and Don wanted to show me around his family's friend place. Their place is on top of a hill over-looking the gorgeous Bunker Bay. Seriously...it was blue for miles!

One of my housemates when I was in Perth is from Dunsborough. Her boyfriend lives in Dunsborough and she would drive down and up every other weekend to see him. Being a slight feminist, I asked her a few times, why can't he come up to Perth for a change. After seeing the town and the beach, I can totally understand why he doesn't want to come up to the City and why she was willing to drive down. 

One of our activities we do together is talking long walks. Super cliche, but we like talking long walks by the beach. Mind you, I was nursing a really bad hangover. So I was a little cranky, but with a view like this... It can cure anything! 

Let's live in the country baby!

#TeamDunco Wedding at Wise Winery Eagle Bay, Dunsborough

Remember when I was ranting about not getting the dress I wanted to wear for Don's brother's wedding. Well, well, well... this girl waited and waited and waited and the dress came online!! It only came in XL, two sizes too big. *sad face* It was such a beautiful dress to give up. I told myself, fuck it. I'm getting it! So I bought it, got it altered and I was good to go. But alteration took longer than usual and I only got my dress a day before i was leaving to Perth! Stress...

I was in Perth again for Don's friend's wedding and to see my baby, of course! The wedding was at the beautiful Wise Winery Eagle Bay in Dunsborough, 3 hours down south from Perth. Beautiful town! Beach. People. I love western weddings. It's simple, quick, no protocols, no awkward speeches from the emcee and fun! I had so much fun that night that I needed Don to help me back to the room. Hehehe... >.<
