Maintaining a Long-Distance Relationship from Afar
When you meet someone that you like, it can be a really exciting time filled with fun, butterflies and looking forward to time spent together.
However, when you meet someone who lives a long distance away from you – even split by oceans or borders – it can be challenging to get to know someone or even maintain a relationship when you aren’t able to see each other regularly, share intimate moments or even communicate in person as often as you’d like.
But with technology and a little thinking ahead, you can work to overcome these challenges and give a long-distance relationship a fair shot. Read on for more.
Be realistic
In a cross-cultural relationship, it is a good idea to be upfront and honest with your love interest. This includes how you feel about him or her, what your goals and desires are, what you are and are not looking for in a relationship as well as future hopes – this includes whether marriage is your end goal.
First, this ensures you both are on the same page. If you are not, there may be no need to put in the time, work and planning of the relationship. If you are, then keep reading.
Plan ahead
Making plans for travel – whether you flying to see your partner or them flying to see you – is key. However, traveling abroad takes time, money and effort. So, it is important to talk about travel schedules and plan weeks and even months in advance. This helps ensure the time together will happen.
Mix it up
Of course, with FaceTime, ZOOM and the litany of other video apps, you can see and talk to your partner remotely. However, it can be exciting to think of other ways to stay in touch or stay fun and flirty.
You could send flowers, candy or even a hand-written letter to show your person you are thinking of them. Simply thinking outside of the box can go a long way to keeping things exciting with your partner.
