While maintaining a long-distance relationship is hard, it is not impossible. So, to all those thinking whether they can handle a long-distance relationship? Our answer is, definitely yes!
There are many ways you can actively grow closer emotionally with each other even while you’re far apart physically, and one of them is to find some long-distance relationship activities that you can do together.
Here are 5 fun long-distance relationship activities that you can do together, according to Modern Love Long Distance:
#1 Take an online quiz and discuss your results
Are you compatible? You can find out by taking plenty of quizzes online.
Many of them are downright silly and won’t tell you anything useful, but it’s a great way to share new experiences with your partner, even over the miles.
#2 Send each other a long-distance care package
We all love receiving presents! This especially, if you are in a long-distance relationship.
Sending gifts and presents can be a wonderful way to tell someone that you love them and that you are thinking about them.
You can put together some small gifts, like their favourite candy and chocolate bar or a mug with some hot chocolate mix, handmade bracelets and keychains, or a scrapbook that you made yourself! Get creative, and then have fun explaining and discussing your choices after you’ve each received your packages.
#3 Go on a virtual movie date
Set aside an evening to watch the same movie while you’re on Skype or on the phone together.
It’s not quite the same as snuggling on the couch together and sharing popcorn, but it can make for some relaxing together time.
#4 Write some open-when letters
Missing your partner? How about channeling all those feelings onto a letter that will remind your loved one exactly how much you really love and miss them!
You can even write multiple letters, and set a date and time of when they should open it, for example, like on their birthdays or your anniversary day.
#5 Plan your next visit together!
Put some effort into planning your next visit! This can give you both something to anticipate and make your reunion sweeter than ever, and help your visit go smoothly.
It is hard, but not impossible!
