Long-distance relationships are not easy. Nor are they that fun, especially when it’s time to say goodbye again. However, many couples push through however many weeks, months, or even years of being far from each other it takes to eventually “close the gap” and be together.

On the list below you will find pictures of some of such couples who have finally reached the point of staying together for good. You will also find some couples who are still divided by distance, as well as some related memes, all of which were shared on the ‘Long Distance’ subreddit, dedicated to – you guessed it – long-distance relationships. Providing support to more than 2.3 million members, the community is a safe place, so if you, too, are in a relationship with someone miles away, you might want to join it or at least hopefully find comfort in the fact that you’re not alone.
