The aim of this study was to explore the role of social media in maintaining long-distance relationships, determine if users consider social media important for sustaining their relationships with their partners, and examine its impact on the duration and success of long-distance relationships. The study also focused on feelings of insecurity and jealousy in long-distance relationships. Most research conducted on various aspects of social media in the context of romantic relationships has not specifically focused on physically separated couples. This study was conducted in the form of an online questionnaire survey, with a convenience sample of 265 participants. The findings revealed that social media influences the duration and success of long- distance relationships by helping partners maintain a sense of closeness and bridging the physical distance. Participants recognized the power of social media in relationship maintenance, and without the use of digital platforms in communication, they couldn't guarantee the continuation of their relationship with certainty. Among the features of social media, messaging emerged as the most commonly used communication tool by separated partners, followed by video and audio calls. The results of the study indicated participants satisfaction with how they communicate with their partners using social media, but when it comes to conflicts, they prefer to resolve them face- to-face. Although previous research has found an increase in jealousy and partner surveillance, the analysis of this study's results identified a smaller number of participants who experienced such feelings.
