Define what you are
Talk about what?s to be expected from both of you. Define what you?re doing. Just casually dating? Soon to be engaged? Boyfriend girlfriend? many couples don?t define this. then when there is a break down, feelings get hurt and this is damaging to both.
Can you date other people? who will move if you decide to end the distance? these difficult decisions need to be worked out ahead of time. this will make for a healthy relationship, trust me.
The more communication the better.
Daily contact is vital
Phone, text or Facebook, it doesn?t matter how. If you travel overseas I find Skype to be useful. The important thing is stay connected with your daily lives. this contact does not have to be for hours on end, in fact, keep the pressure off and contact often but in short spurts.
Always have a plan
After seeing each other, immediately book the next get together. this is vital. this gives both of you something exciting to look forward to. Also, If you can do it, surprise each other with a fill in visit.
Try different things
This is huge. Do things other than communicate together. Just talking can get real boring with anyone. take full advantage of technology. Use the video phone, and web cams, have phone sex, watch a movie together or zoom in on Fido?s nostrils.
Use the kids as props. Don?t forget the love letters or chocolates. Cards are always great. Communication doesn?t have to be long, in fact I keep things short and pithy. Text the days triumphant moment or failure.
Stay Positive
Make sure to stay upbeat. I know there are sad times because of the distance. But try to mask some of the irrelevant sad crap going on in your life. She doesn?t need to know about every complaint you had through out one of your lousy days at work.
Remember important dates
Guys, I?m talking to you. Missing her birthday or even your six month dating anniversary gets compounded in a long distance relationship. Use reminders if you have to. In her eyes, there is no excuse other than you don?t care
In conclusion
Keeping a long term relationship hot is simple. Define what the relationship is, stay in daily contact, always have the next get together planned, stay positive and never forget any important dates.
Now you know the six keys to a healthy long distance relationship
