"Distance is the length between two points","an interval of time",the more remote part of what is visible or discernible" and the probably most important definition to keep in your mind:"The avoidance of familitary;reserve".Comparing with a Long Distance Relationship,that is not true.Of course there's this distance.And that distance is terrible and hard,feels like a wall which delimits the one from his/her only wishes to be fullfilled.Which lets a person crash from the high and positive moments in life,a person needs to survive!So probably one of the necessary things in life is love.The feeling to be so fullfilled,that the feeling of happiness stands by one all day,even if there's a bad thing happening,a worse problem than the normals.There is a person who is connected to one in a special way.One doesn't think about the bad things anymore cause somebody knows that no matter what happens,one will never pass the border of "avoiding the familitary",the border of distance.That's the point:distance in a relationship is not that distance of feeling empty and alone,it's its avoidance.Because being in a relationship means having someone to stand by you and someone who will help you,even if the hardest situation is saying hello to life,and in a Long Distance Relationship that feeling gets just stronger and seems to glow the moment you are together,because if you can handle distance,you will be unstopable once you're together.So a more important definition is the defintion of relationship:"The way in which two or more people or things are connected, or the state of being connected".
