| 0:00.0 | Hey, everyone. This is our today's episode is about long-distance relationships. |
| 0:04.8 | A lot of you have been emailing me questions about long-distance relationships for a long time. |
| 0:09.8 | And so I am finally getting to it. |
| 0:12.4 | This is actually part three of my Loneliness Deep Dive series, |
| 0:17.8 | but part one was on avoidant personality disorder, part two was on dissociation. |
| 0:23.2 | I think those are only for patrons of the podcast. This is this episode is for everyone. |

| 1:25.2 | two and a half hours of driving. So if you live two to three hours away in all likelihood, |
| 1:31.1 | you consider yourself to be in a long-distance relationship. Now, in my neck of the woods in |
| 1:37.7 | Seattle, people commute quite long distances. So I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people in |
| 1:44.3 | two hour driving distance away from each other. I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't consider |
| 1:51.3 | themselves to be in a long-distance relationship. For those in my area that'd be like between |
