8 ways to survive Long Distance Relationship

Wonder how to stay close while are thousand miles apart? Here are the ways..

#1: Trust

No one should and can control another person, knowing their loved one is so far away, and nobody likes to be controlling. Mutual trust is established when there is no feeling of insecurity, suspicion and impulses that would bring the relationship down. Trust is much tougher considering when are aparted, but its the most important element to maintain a healthy relationship.

#2: Communication

Applicable to every sort of relationship, friendship and kinship. Do make your loved knows what you’ve been doing and thinking by using the conventional type to the techie way such as phone calls, emails, MSN, Skype, IMVU etc.. Send her a cute sms or email once a week is enough to chill her day up…

#3: Be Patient

Do spend time listen to your loved one, be there for her whenever she needs you, be her hero and the man of her world. Learn to be patient, showing her that you value the relationship and willingly to work patiently to bloom the relationship and even some sacrifices. There’s no free lunch in this world!!!

#4: Be honest

Honesty is the path to intimacy, be honest to your feeling, speak out your thoughts, feelings, needs, wants, problems. Learning to reduce the boundaries of a relationship and be willingly to share about everything.

#5: Give freedom

to your partner! More time with your friends, family and also jobs! Have some quality time alone, doing things that you like and indulgence the most. Most importantly, being aparted gives you a chance to maintain your own identity, somethings that can get lost when couples spend all of their free time together.

#6: Be Creative

Be more interactive to the relationship, take initiative to send a creative photo calender, a drawing of each other in the unforgettable scene, and might be able to see the relationship growing. Additional example, a workout t-shirt with your perfume…

#7: Talk about marriage and future

If you think you are in a stable relationship, discussing how you are going to get to that point will help to prove to your loved one that the relationship is appreciated and all the efforts have been made to grow it positively. Bear in mind, say it for the sake of say it and from the bottom of your heart, Women are sensitive and we can feel your heart!!

#8: Call it off

Knowing when to say goodbye. When communication is one-sided and shows no new reformation of sparks, when arguments are more frequent than healthy communication (of course you had tried the best to solve the problems). These are the signs and symptom that a healthy blossoming relationship is impossible to achieve.

Key message: When absence makes the heart fonder!!
