It works don't worry, people do it all the time. Just communicate, mature, FORGIVE AND FORGET every argument, don't ever get CLINGY it pushes the other partner away faster, and save exciting things ( expressing deep love emotions to eachother, sexting...) for moments don't just do it cause you have to or don't scedule it. NEVER initiate breaking yuo unless you or the other partner are sure🤷‍♀ ( make sure you mention this warning to each other first with tender). NEVER involve your friends in your decisions because you may already be involved in their opinions if you tell them everything so you might wanna keep most of it private. DONT worry if the other partner start to show less effort! They will come around eventually don't pressure them for attention. Mine didn't work because i focused on what my boyfriend should have done and forgot to actually have a deep understanding of his needs and all..... But Omg buckle up its a long ride if you both are committed to the relationship you have. Good luck🙌🏻
