Share some international long distance relationship stories.

Time differences are a common difficulty. For example, when one person is waking up, the other might be going to bed, which limits their communication time.

One story is about my friends, Tom and Lily. They met in college but Tom had to go study abroad for a semester. They faced challenges like different time zones. At first, they talked every day but as time passed, they grew a bit apart. However, they decided to make it work. They started to plan visits and sent each other care packages. In the end, they overcame the distance and are still together now.

One sad long - distance relationship story is about a couple who were deeply in love. The guy moved to another country for work. They tried to keep in touch through video calls and messages, but the time difference and the physical distance took a toll. Eventually, they grew apart as they couldn't be there for each other during important moments like birthdays and family emergencies.

One story is about a soldier deployed overseas. His girlfriend back home waited for him for two years. She sent care packages regularly with his favorite snacks and handwritten letters. Despite the time difference and distance, they made it work by having video calls whenever possible. When he finally returned, their relationship was even stronger.

One story is about two guys, Tom and Jerry. They met online. Tom was in New York and Jerry in London. They started chatting and soon realized they had a deep connection.
