Surprisingly, it does actually help when you consistently catch up with the person!
mike and i took our circumstances as a great opportunity to travel and met up with each other around the world, staying in a nice romatic vacation home whenever we had the chance.
After meeting initially in august 2010, we went to scotland for that christmas, and toured london, amsterdam and paris. He then came to australia in april 2011 and spent a month with my friends and family before proposing!
we spent two weeks in london in june of that year, and he was back in australia in october for our engagement party and we used this chance to plan a trip to moreton island together.
Just like in a regular relationship, it’s important to maintain a degree of independence when you’re in an ldr. Like we mentioned above, it’s totally okay to spend friday nights with your friends, not on the phone with your long distance boo. Though it can seem counterintuitive, it’s important that you prioritize your own needs over your partner’s from time to time which means that sometimes you might need to do some in-person socializing rather than staying in on the phone. Remember that it’s important that you maintain a normal life even if you are long distance. Doing things like spending time with friends and family and trying new things is super important, because it helps you maintain your identity outside of your relationship.
It’s very hard to be away from the person you love, but there are ways that you can still spend time together and make the relationship work. Keeping a positive mindset is easier said than done but having optimistic outlook can help you focus on ways that can make your long distance relationship work rather than focusing on the fact that you all are apart from each other. When you’re in a long distance relationship, it can also give you the opportunity to be independent and spend time with your family and friends. Sometimes a relationship can be unhealthy when you spend too much time with your partner and not your other loved ones.
Sometimes conversations can be boring because you’re not doing anything! long distance relationships can end up taking all of your time, energy, and emotion. Invest in your relationship, but also invest in friends, family, hobbies, and interests. This gives you more things to talk about and keeps your relationship healthier as well.
