Whoever said that absence makes the heart grow fonder never contented with the weekend airport rush. Here are some ways to hold on to your long-distance lover..
1. Keep in touch daily.
* If large phone bills are a concern, send e-mails, letters, cards and even faxes.
2. Plan reunions to keep both of you pleased about the relationship.
* If your partner needs closeness, set up plans to meet often. Having a date to look forward to can help you through and through times.
3. Reafirm your love and commitment to one another.
* Try not to assume that the relationship is thriving. Listen to your partner's concern and communicate your own before they become bigger problem.
4. Keep your partner informed about your life.
* You may live separetely, but sharing information about your activities and friends is still important, very much important!!5. Trust in one another.
* Suspicion will only break the relationship down.
6. Keep the relationship a high priority.
* Avoid cancelling reunions or putting off a phone calls.
7. Focus on the future.
* Make plans to live in the same city eventually.
Tips and Warnings:
*Plan a reunion in a city other than the ones you live in. Having a weekend getaway or vacation together can help recharge the relationship and reinforce your commitment
* Find ways to reduce the cost of travel and phone calls so you can meet and talk more often.
* Surprise your loved one with an unexpected visit or a bouquet of flowers to keep the passion alive.
* Be patient - it may take time for a long-term plans to work out.
* Consider other creative means of expressing your devotion: Scrawl confession on a minor fan or a piece of cloth. Fire off succession of postcards.
Hope this will help!!!
