It is not easy to hold a long-distance relationship. It requires both parties to trust each other, take responsibility, have principles and understand communication. Research shows that most people who are in long-distance love end up breaking up. This is why you will find that many "experts" claim that long-distance love is not a good idea and does not work. However, if you learn how to communicate and set various principles for your relationship, long-distance love can work. Long-distance love is a tough battle, but it can be maintained. Many people finally end their long separation and finally get married.
Therefore, long-distance love always feels very painful in the eyes of many people, because it carries a long distance and has to bear some psychological pressure. Will there be someone else? Will our future personalities be compatible? However, successful cases do exist. Today, here are seven magic tricks to teach you how to play long-distance love.
1. First of all, we should understand some important issues, so as to better understand the relationship between you two
Use some terms to define your relationship, just want to date occasionally? Or often? A boyfriend or girlfriend? Or we are going to get engaged. For the lonely guy, define whether you are a celibate. Answering these questions is really difficult and awkward, but it will really save you endless headaches and misunderstandings. For example, "If our relationship goes further, will you consider moving?" or "What do you want from our relationship?" Clarifying your ultimate goal and idea will allow two people to work together for these.
2. Unified cooperation and contempt for distance
It is very important that, as a poor long-distance couple, you should do something else together besides calling. Is it boring to call for a long time? Try some other forms of collaboration. Think about it. Couples who are not far away will never spend much time on the phone, but find something to do together. You should also try to do this, try to find something you can do together, and watch the same TV or movie at the same time. Looking forward to a project list about collaborative activities?
3. Anyway, communicate every day
And as many as possible. Although you can't see each other, it is very important to establish and maintain emotional communication. It does not always require lengthy and in-depth communication. Tell the other party about your small achievements or setbacks and ask what to do. E-mail is a good thing. Don't use it. Especially when long-distance calls make your wallet tight, don't forget that email and text messages may cause misunderstanding between you. Write a love letter or send a little gift online for no reason. In this way, the quantity of communication will be as important as the quality. You will find that you even have an advantage over those non-long-distance students: you will not regard communication as a routine.
4. Find the advantages brought by different places
Spend more time with your friends and family, and don't quarrel over trifles. Farewells are better than newlyweds. When you encounter unreasonable demands from the other party (you should send emails in other places) or other similar situations, you have more time to ponder your choice (instead of giving your lover a blow in the head like in other places). More importantly, the distance between you allows you to maintain your personality, which will be lost in the lovers' daily love of you, me and me.
5. Pursue common interests
Even if it is pursued separately. If there is a movie that you are all interested in, go to see it separately, and then exchange views by telephone. At the same time, read a book and daydream together when you call. Let your watch display the same number at every moment, let your alarm clock ring at the same time, miss each other at a certain time every day, and realize the sweetness that the other party is also missing you at this moment. Use your creativity to bring you closer to each other.
6. Forget the evil idea of completely controlling the other party
Born equal, no one can or should be controlled by others. Since you have decided to choose this long-distance relationship, you should accept this fact. Besides, it has no inevitable connection with long-distance relationship. If one party doesn't feel comfortable with the other party, or has a better partner, then if you are separated by 3000 feet, or two blocks, or sleeping in a bed with your wedding photos hanging on the wall, your relationship is over. On the contrary, as long as your relationship continues, you should completely trust each other.
7. Sending Acacia from a Thousand Miles
From time to time, prepare something to send to your partner who is from a different place to express your concern. Here are some things for reference only (planning by yourself, of course, not to send them all at once):
Books, phone cards, good thoughts chocolate, music, video messages, intelligence tests, candy, real roses, postcards, plush toys, fake roses, holiday items, messages in bottles, chocolate roses, embossing, your photos, carved roses, gift cards, jewelry, the "key" of the soul, foam baths, movie tickets, personalized poetry. The more personalized and imaginative you are, the more impressed your partner will be with your thoughtfulness.
