Marriage aims not only to obtain social acceptance but also to have a long-lasting companionship. Longdistance marriage is a relationship between husband and wife that is both legally and religiously bound. In this research, three samples are used: one sample is an employee, one sample is a lecturer, and one other sample is a university student. In more detail, the samples are: N (26) with a husband working in Cikarang, P (28) is an employee whose husband working in Makassar, and R (35) is a university student whose husband working in Kendari. The research aims to identify the role of husbands in long-distance marriage life and the wives' expectations in living with this marriage. The research methodology used in this research is interview involving instructions and open questions. The result of this research shows that the three samples experienced problems in communicating, so they often had an argument, suffered from loneliness, and lacked the husband's participation in parenting.
