Long Distance Love Quotes for Deployment
Note: I may earn money or products from the companies, products, or links mentioned in this post.
When my husband was in basic training I decided to send him a love letter every single day and include several long distance love quotes. I wanted to let him know that he was loved, thought about, and prayed for the entire time he was gone.
I typed up my letters in a document, and each day I would print one out and mail it to him. Not only did I include long distance love quotes, but I also wrote to him about my day, the things that were going on while he was gone, and of course all the wedding planning I was doing!
I remember searching online for just the right long distance love quotes to send him. Things that would make him feel encouraged and loved. While I do not know who these quotes are attributed to, I hope that you too find these quotes helpful and comforting during your service member‘s deployment or in your long distance relationship.

8. âWhat I have with you is worth it. It is worth every lonely night, every tear I cry from missing you, and the pain I feel from not having you close. It is worth it because you are my one and only.
