How to Make Your LDR Work... According to WikiHow

I was browsing the web for some worthy LDR how-to's and this article from WikiHow caught my eye:



http://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-Long-Distance-Relationship-Work 


If you're trying to find a decent how-to on how to make your LDR work, this article is very straightforward and more or less covered the fundamentals. An added plus is the mush-worthy graphics that vaguely reminded me of mass-market notebook covers.  It's a collaborative effort of 145 authors and has had 742 revisions, so I think that this list is truly a massive work of like-minded people working on a same, attainable goal: LDR relationships DO work!

Be warned, though: the article starts with a conditional clause. I quote, "If you are willing to work it out, here's how to give it every chance to survive and thrive." It says if you are willing to work it out. That's a big IF. If you're not, please do not try to start on a long distance relationship as it may not end well on both sides. It is an all or nothing deal, so please think twice before embarking on a LDR relationship.

On top of all that, this article was read 3,563,599 times (and has 13k likes on Facebook)! Its a comforting thought that 3million plus people share my eagerness in making LDRs work. Kudos to you people!
