<p><strong>We&#8217;ve been closely following the long-distance relationships of a handful of single parent bloggers &#8212; and gushing all the way!</strong></p>
<p>For example, there&#8217;s <a href="http://tsquest.blogspot.com/search/label/long%20distance%20relationship">T, who blogs often about dating her guy long distance</a>. We love how she keeps it positive when it comes to balancing it all: two kids, an ex, a full-time job&#8230; and her sweet Rascal.</p>
<p>&#8220;I know that I certainly wonder if all of this long-distance-goodness can translate into real-everyday-life wonderfulness,&#8221; T has written.</p>
<p><strong>She&#8217;s not the <em>only</em> single parent blogger who is making a long-distance relationship work &#8212; and staying positive!</strong></p>
<p>If you haven&#8217;t yet heard about <a href="http://iusedtohavehair.wordpress.com/"><strong>Canadian Bald Guy</strong></a> and <a href="http://mommasunshine.wordpress.com/"><strong>Momma Sunshine</strong></a>, you should.</p>
<p>In fact, Momma Sunshine has outlined the <a href="http://mommasunshine.wordpress.com/2009/09/23/the-benefits-of-being-in-a-long-distance-relationship/">benefits of being in a long distance relationship</a> on her site.</p>
<p>&#8220;At the stage of my life I’m in right now, <em>being in a long distance relationship is actually pretty beneficial,&#8221; </em>she writes, going on to explain all the reasons why their time apart is actually positive.</p>
<p>Canadian Bald Guy even wrote about <a href="http://iusedtohavehair.wordpress.com/2009/11/27/well-you-never-say-never/">proposing marriage</a> (!) &#8212; although he said that that he and Sunshine would need to live in the same city, for starters.</p>
<p><strong>If you&#8217;re in a long distance relationship now, we&#8217;d love to know.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Will you be able to see each other on Valentine&#8217;s Day?<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>In fact, we&#8217;d like to hear from any one who has had an LDR. </strong>We bet you have a lot to say.</p>
