4 Zodiacs That Make Long-Distance Dating Work

Long-distance relationships are never easy, requiring an intense amount of work, effort, and communication to make such romances pan out in the long run. While such relationships can certainly be difficult to maintain, some astrological signs seem to thrive in long-distance romances.

More often than not, these signs demonstrate the same level of dedication and concentration in long-distance relationships as they do with in-person romancesā€“their warm feelings and supportive love literally traveling miles to reach their significant other.

Cancer

A pitch-perfect example of a water sign, a Cancerā€™s love is as deep and boundless as the sea. Once you fall in love, you donā€™t easily fall out of it, possessing the same idyllic view of your significant other over lengthy periods of time. Rather than growing lovesick or despondent when youā€™ve been without your partner, you think back to all of the fond times youā€™ve had together, using the warmth of your memories to carry you forward until the next time you meet.

Libra

To you, loyalty is a given. It doesnā€™t matter how long you and your partner have been apartā€“or even how long youā€™ve been datingā€“youā€™re willing to stick by their side through thick and thin. Admittedly, you hate being alone, growing depressed through long stretches of time without coming face to face with your partner. But once youā€™re together again, itā€™s like hardly any time has passed at all, with Libras instantly making up for lost time and cramming in as many date nights with their partner as possible.

Capricorn

You have a blessedly straightforward view of relationships, affording you a more pragmatic outlook on love and time apart. While it does take you some time expressing your true feelings to someone, once youā€™ve found that special person in your life, you stick by them for years to come. Though some signs might express disappointment about the prospect of going months without seeing their partner, you take it in stride, counting the minutes until youā€™re reunited rather than disparaging at the thought of staying apart.

Aquarius

You have difficulty managing time, often getting lost in your own thoughts and feelings and forgetting about more practical matters (like what hour it is or even what day of the week it might be). Itā€™s for this very reason that you do well in long-distance relationships, with Aquarians able to translate their intricate emotions down into indirect forms of communication. Whether jotting down your thoughts into a text message or speaking to your partner over the phone, your unending stream of internal dialogue always find their way back to your companion, no matter where in the world they are at any given moment.
