Five Ways to Making a Long Distant Relationship Last

We all know that long distant relationships can be hard to go through and although it may seem like it could

never work thats when you read this article and find out there are 5 ways to make a relationship last even if

you cant be together at the time. Love is wonderful and you should never give up on love until you are certain

 you tried everything necessary to make it work.

1. TRUST: The first thing about being in a long distance relationship is trusting your lover. If you dont trust them then a long distant relationship will never work period. You cant spend all your time thinking they arent being faithful or that they arent into you otherwise they will probably want to get out of the relationship.
    
2. FOCUS: Try focusing on the relationship. Have a long talk about future plans and ways to compliment each others lifestyles. Make plans to see each other and to be together in one place sometime in the future, but in making plans to see each other try not to cancel any prior made dates to avoid hurting the other persons feelings. The few dates you two get are very very crucial.
   
3. COMMUNICATION: Communication is key. Calling your partner at least once or maybe twice a day not only gives them something to look forward to but also helps them coping with not having you there with them. If you cant call try emailing or video chatting. Video chats allows you to see each other and talk at the same time. ( I suggest you invest in video chatting).
   
4. AFFECTION: Anyone in a relationship wants to know how the other one feels about them. Try expressing your feelings often to reassure your lover that you are still into them and that your feelings havent changed. Compliment them and make them feel wanted and appreciated. Though women are expected to get these things, men like to recieve them in return.
5. GIFTS:Yes guys and girls, I know. Its not christmas, a birthday, valentines day, or mothers day. A present is a simple way of expressing your thanks to your lover. A simple gift can signify an appreciation for being yours. Spending a little money on the one you love shouldnt be a problem, and if it is then you have a big problem and shoud consider therapy. (Only kidding).
