the_trucking_pawpaw Posted March 15 Report Posted March 15 I just wanted see what is some of y'alls take on a LDR in the DDlg dynamic. I know CG's and their littles often live together as partners or close to each other. I also know it's not always the case. The issue for me is that I'm a truck driver, so I am all over the US. That would make it hard for me to be physically present as a caregiver. I'm also not necessarily looking for anything more than platonic, although that could change or evolve, depending on the relationship we have. I just wondered if any of you think ldr in the dynamic could be an option or if you're totally against it and reasons for both. Also, are there Littles out there that would be OK with that type situation. We could call/chat in the mornings and do video at times. Lots of virtual hugs, cuddles and smooches! Not saying that we couldn't ever meet in person though at some point because I would very much look forward to that, as well. I'm also curious about using apps like task trackers in an ldr. Seems like it could be of value in that aspect, but also for those who live with their little as well. Afterall, you're not spending 24/7 together in most cases, right? Let me know what you think. I would be happy to get some responses from littles on the subject as well.
SaltyChindit Posted March 15 Report Posted March 15 (edited) I think it can be done to a certain extent. I don't mind a bit of distance at the start of a relationship but do really desire that physical connection. Ultimately it's down to you and them, you can maintain that bond over a distance, if you're driving a truck that's a lot of hands free talking through the day and I'm not sure how driver's hours work in the US but you have a bit of time to watch some shows remotely or play a game come and evening. Looking at the state of some truck cabs in the US; if you found the right person who'd be you're co driver you could travel the country trucking, ****ing and care giving.

Lil_K47 Posted July 4 Report Posted July 4 So this really isn’t DDlg related, but my dad (my actual dad lol) has been in a long distance relationship for 10+ years now! So I know with work, effort, and consistency, anything is possible! My younger brother struggles with some mental health issues and he still lives at home with my dad. My dad met a lovely woman over 10 years ago. She lives in Asheville North Carolina and he is in Taswell Virginia. That’s roughly at 3 to 3 1/2 hour drive. He spends most of his week in Asheville with her and he drives home EVERY week to check on my brother for at least a couple of days. This is a whole lot of traveling for someone his age. He is now 71 or 72 I think, and he and his girlfriend, they make it work! You know, I think the key is 1. communication., 2. Building trust, and 3. both of you have to be willing to put in the time and effort to maintaining that kind of relationship, but if it’s important to you, you WILL make it work! best of luck in your journeys!! 1 1

And as you know @-Soul- lives in Scotland and I in Kentucky, we use different apps to talk on such as discord/Snapchat/and we both have each others addresses as well as phone numbers. I personally don't mind a LDR, right now in our lives it's what we both need. We both talk all day, during work, on our days off and via phone or video call nightly. LDR is a beautiful relationship and can actually be rewarding because you have to build your relationship on trust and honesty something we both crave as well as need. He is far better at explaining things than I am, so to me is it worth it? Yes it's beautiful and honestly I'm so happy I met him. We have a plan to meet up in the near future and until then we are just enjoying having each other's company Good luck to you on your beautiful journey 💕 Edited July 4 by MissAnna 1 3

I'm actually in a 3-person dynamic right now. I message both and do calls via Discord plus all 3 of us are on a chat together. One little and I want to meet eventually for sure. So far the other is only online and that works too. Work schedules work out fairly well where I can do calls with each at different times of the day. With me being a truck driver I'm available to do calls most of the time. Honestly, I couldn't be happier with both of them. First little was jelly at first, but also excited to have a "sister". So far it is a beautiful journey. Thanks again! 1

I'm happy for all of you! I get the jelly feelings... it's hard to share a Daddy, but fun to have a sister. I happy you were all able to work through it! 1

Now I'm now giving up the battle! Also, I set up a Life360 circle for me and the first little so she can see wherever I'm at in the country.

CupcakeSparklies Posted yesterday at 08:15 AM Report Posted yesterday at 08:15 AM I am in an LDR with my Daddy. He is British. I live in the US. So like a 5 hour time difference. We make it work because we adore one another. We talk on voice a lot. We are messaging constantly even if the other one isnt awake to kinda keep the lines of communication always open. Right now we are testing the obedience app as a tracking way for tasks and such. We are meeting up irl for a birthday celebration for me later this year. I would love it of my Daddy was here, but that isnt how it worked out. I adore him and our dynamic so this is how it works for us.
