About this episode
Bella discusses the challenges and hopes of long-distance relationships, sharing personal insights and advice.
Hi! You’ve got mail from me, Bella 💌 This week, we’re talking all about long-distance relationships. After someone wrote into my Substack advice column asking for help, it reminded me just how hard they can be. I see so many people starting long-distance, and just as many people ending things because of it—but not nearly enough stories about making it through. So, as someone who’s now living with her once long-distance boyfriend, I wanted to bring a bit of honesty and hope into the conversation. We’re getting into what makes long distance so challenging, what actually helps, and whether it’s really worth it. If you’re in one, thinking about one, or healing from one—this episode is for you.
