Good point - a lot of times we forget that the frequency and amount of travel is unimaginable to most other people who lead a local life, with a local job, and local families. We all "commute", so to speak, for our work, and on top of that, that in a way has also opened the door for us to do a LDR. Hey, if our offices and clients are often a few thousand miles away, we're more likely to take on a relationship that far away as well... since "home", for us, to an extent, really isn't home to begin with (in the traditional sense).
