Keep Long-distance Relationship Strong

Long-distance relationships can be difficult, as being far from a loved one can put a strain on the strength of your relationship. If you've decided to enter into a long-distance relationship, it's important to remember not to slack off when it comes to putting effort into your bond. If you have a significant other who is far away, knowing how to keep your relationship strong will ensure a lasting love.

Talk over the phone at least once a day. It's important that while you are far apart you are still very much a part of one another's daily routine. If you can talk twice -- say in the morning and before bed -- that is even better. Even if you are busy and don't have a lot of time, make an effort to have at least a short conversation or make a plan to talk at the same time every day.

Plan video dates once or twice a week. Most computers today come equipped with webcams that allow for you to converse and see a person far away. If you don't have a webcam you can find them at most electronic stores. Share a glass of wine with each other over the webcam, have dinner at your computers with one another, watch a movie together or even just talk.

Make a plan for regular visits. This doesn't mean breaking the bank to visit every weekend, but setting up an agreement that each of you will periodically visit each other can provide a goal to look forward to while you are apart. You could even set up a bank account where you each contribute a certain amount of money a week to save for visits.

Send letters. While the Internet has made it easy to e-mail messages and cell phones allow for quick texts, nothing beats getting something in the mail that someone has put effort into sending. Love letters are classic romance. Send a care package once a month to one another that contains things like perfume, homemade cards, favorite foods and mix CDs.
