That means “LDR”: Long Distance Relationship
The English acronym “LDR” stands for “Long Distance Relationship”. Translated into German, this means “long-distance relationship”. So people use the abbreviation to indicate that they have a long-distance relationship or they refer to it in a chat conversation.
This is how “LDR” is used
The abbreviation “LDR” is sometimes found on Tinder, where people state in their bio that they are in a relationship, but not with their partner very often. Here, during a match, it should be asked whether, as an outsider, you are getting involved with a cheater or whether an open relationship with the “LDR” partner has been established.

However, you can also use “LDR” outside of dating apps in chat or on social media when writing about long-distance relationships or perhaps sharing your own.
How to use the abbreviation “LDR”:
- “I would really go crazy if I had an LDR, ngl.”
- “Toni, 24. LDR and open relationship” (as profile description)
- “My LDR works really well. But of course I have kp how long it will go so well. Luckily we see each other every 3 weeks.”
