Long distance relationships are challenging. Being apart from the ones we love sometimes can feel like too much to bear. Being a FIFO wife for 12+ years, I understand how hard it can be to be separated from your loved one.
My husband spends half of the year away from us and I know there’s many couples who are separated for longer than this.
There are plenty of lonely nights, scrolling through socials searching for a shred of hope and inspiration to keep going.
Long distance relationship quotes, although just words, can help to lift spirits and motivate you to keep going. Because sometimes, when our partner isn’t here, words are all we have.
It’s important to acknowledge feelings of sadness, allow yourself to be upset and have a cry if need be.
I wanted to share some of the best long distance relationship quotes, that I feel apply to the FIFO life too. These help to uplift me in times when I feel alone, or when I’ve lost sight of the bigger picture. I hope they help you too.
And in case no one has told you today- you’re doing amazing.
Motivational and inspiring long-distance relationship quotes to get you through the hard times.
