How do people in long-distance relationships get married?

I understand that it's difficult to keep up, but possible... However, since people in a LDR can only see each other maybe once a month or less, how is that enough time for them to realize that they are compatible for marriage? I mean, isn't there a difference between seeing each other 4-12 times a year and actually living together? How do people in long-distance relationships get married?

Me and my husband when dating were in a long distant relationship and it was very difficult. What worked for us was that we both agreed to be available via phone to one another no matter what hour it was. We eventually got married and he re-located to where I am. It takes a lot of focus on the relationship and a lot of trust.
With today's technologies, theyr'e able to communicate around the clock. A relationship isn't just about being together physically. It's the same reason that LDR work after marriage today - military spouses and trucker wives are tested by these relationships everyday.
Eventually someone has to relocate. Preferably before they get married.
me and my man talk everyday for hours


even tho he isnt here physically i still love him unconditionally
