Let’s, not mince words: Even though you may not be able to see one other every day, that doesn’t mean your long-distance relationship needs to suffer. Although you must try to see each other regularly, you may keep the romance alive even if distance separates you.
Although it’s true that technology can be helpful in a long-distance relationship, you shouldn’t let things like FaceTime and Zoom prevent you from finding more intimate ways to keep in touch with your significant other.
A heartfelt “I love you” expressed through snail mail or an impromptu visit from the sender will always be more meaningful than any text message could ever be.
How to Make Romantic Surprises for Your Long-Distance Boyfriend?
Have a TV or Movie Night Together: Choose a TV show to watch back-to-back (or watch the premiere each week) or put on the same film. Keep in touch through phone or FaceTime as you watch; it’s common knowledge that couples who Netflix together remain together.
Send a Plant or a Gift Basket: We’ll caution you against sending inappropriate photographs, so try to find something provocative without displaying too much skin. Or, if you’d rather keep things tame, you might simply share images of what you’re up to with your significant other (maybe an exciting dish from a trendy new restaurant, or a picture of you and your buddies enjoying a glass of wine).
Take Some Pictures: We’ll caution you against sending inappropriate photographs, so try to find something provocative without displaying too much skin. Or, if you’d rather keep things tame, you might simply share images of what you’re up to with your significant other (maybe an exciting dish from a trendy new restaurant, or a picture of you and your buddies enjoying a glass of wine).
Surprise Them by Meeting Them: The likelihood of the secret being revealed decreases with the number of individuals you tell in advance. Surprise trips are much better than prearranged ones (especially if your partner has had a tough week or is celebrating something significant).
Create a Joint Pinterest Account: Create a shared account, then divide your time between “fun date ideas,” “vacation bucket lists,” and other boards to help you plan your time together. The Pinterest app allows you to maintain connections regardless of where you are.
Create a Shared Digital Photo Album: Smartphones simplify sending pictures to a faraway sweetheart with only a few clicks. Make a joint photo album on your phones and swap snaps with each other.
Call Each Other: Make phone calls instead of sending texts, even just to ask a quick question or tell a brief anecdote. The simple act of exchanging voicemails or phone calls can help bring you closer together.
Share Your Daily Successes: Share with your lover the best parts of your day when you can communicate via phone or video chat. The highlights of your day, whether you aced a presentation at work or ran into a long-lost buddy, will please them. Discuss as though you were in the same room together.
Support Each Other: Maintaining a long-distance relationship is challenging, and no number of communication aids or care packages can make up for the absence of physical proximity. For this reason, keeping a spirit of mutual support and reassurance is crucial as you navigate this challenging period. Maintain open communication channels and trust that an honest, strong partnership can weather any storm.
