Distance and Love - How to Balance the Two

Did your boyfriend just go abroad for work? Do you miss him everyday? How do you deal with the distance and love? Many people say that long distance relationship doesn't work. It is because there are too many temptations around and that physical presence is always essential in a relationship. But, how is it that there are love stories (true stories) where two people who are miles and miles away from each other were able to fall in love with each other despite the distance?

The thing the keeps relationship strong is communication. Physical presence may be needed but it is still communication that strengthens the bond between two individuals. The reason why many long distance relationships fail because there is lack of communication between the people involved. If you want to keep your love, try the tips below that will help keep your relationship and balance distance and love.

Drop him a Line Everyday

You don't really need to call him all the time to check if he is okay. Even if it is just a single "take care, I love you" message, it is enough to let him know that you are there for him. You can ask questions but do not nag him all the time because it might annoy him. And, always put this in mind: do not message or call him during work hours. You will definitely not get any answers from him.

Update from time to time

Give him updates thru email on the recent activities you have been doing and some relevant information. Do not talk to him about what happened to your day everyday because it will just bore him. Just some relevant facts like: "I shopped with your mom today" or "I had a good conversation with your classmate in college and we were talking about you" and many other not-the-usual events.

Surprise him once in a while

Send him a video where you, his friends and family are giving him personal messages just to check out on him. This will truly make him happy because he is remembered by everyone despite the distance. This too will encourage him to balance distance and love and he might give you a surprise in return.

Send him Snail Mail

Although technology is very advanced these days and you can already use the electronic mail to send cards and personal messages, nothing beats the power of a message written on paper. It is because there is effort given in writing a letter. Do not worry if the mail takes times to arrive as long as it arrives in his hands. These too, will surprise him and will make him realize that he is always very important to you because you have taken time to write to him in paper. This is one good way to make distance and love work.

Visit Him

If you can afford, if it is possible and if you can get a vacation leave to visit him, do it. You can make it a surprise visit or you can inform him that you have a vacation and you can come to him. It's much better if he can take a leave from work even for a short while so you two can spend time together but it is not necessary. Just as long as you two can see each other, it is already enough to keep distance and love working.
