Long Distance Relationships.....

For as long as I can ever remember.....It has always been said that..... “Absence makes the heart grow fonder.” Try telling that to the long-distance relationship couple.....because they think being apart really sucks!

What if you woke up one day and went into the office only to learn that your company was relocation you and that you would be miles away from your home? You don't want to leave but you refuse to lose the job of your dreams…especially in this terrible economy. Your wonderful loving partner of a few years can't move with you as they have a life of their own at home. They can’t afford to lose their job, friends and family life just to please you and you wouldn’t expect them to.

Quite the conundrum wouldn't you say? So what do you do....Do you break it off completely? Or do you slowly torture yourselves through a resolution and make things work? No guts, no glory....that's what  say. Don't give up! Learn how to make it work...it's really not as difficult as you might think, and if it ever becomes too much, you'll both have to discuss and decide what avenue to take at that time.

Trust me, nothing is as hard to maintain as a long distance relationship....I know.....The worrying, the missed phone calls, the long mushy e-mails, the spying on Face Book, the yearning, etc… It all gets to be a bit much for a couple to carry even if you have the strongest of relationships.... But if you do decide to try to fight your way through these weary times, here are a few tips that might be helpful....

Believe in the Skype – Oh my, how far technology has taken us. Remember the day when we used to marvel at the fact of talking to someone via videophone? Well that day is here. Get onto Skype or invest in a readily equipped iPhone. It’s nice to see your loved one on the other side. Watching them move the way they would if you were meeting them after work or at happy hours for a drink in person. The smile; the quirky gestures. And phone sex can be that much more graphic,...I've never been one for it, but you might enjoy it. I prefer the little things.....the way they make you giggle, how they bring the silly out in you, and how they are always there to listen.

Try Not to Overindulge – Just like most anything else in life, everything in moderation. Try not to suffocate each other. Too much s not good....Modern technology is quite helpful, but just remember; it is an only an aide, not a crutch. If you find yourselves texting, calling or skyping each other every other minute, your relationship will feel forced and artificial,...and you certainly do not want that. Let each other breath a little, and trust one another just as you would want to be trusted....I am a strong believer in "if things were meant to be, they'll be!"

Use the Human Touch – Though you can’t touch one another physically, you can however buy cards and write in them with YOUR OWN HANDWRITING. Yes, this requires picking up a pen and writing your own thoughts and words. You can spray them with your cologne/perfume. Don’t let technology take all the credit here.... Use the post office.....remember...that place we all used to go to mail letters, bills and packages? Nothing says “I was thinking of you” more than a hand delivered gift. When I say send them something... I'm not talking about a nude or semi nude photo sent on your phone via picture mail...No, No No!.....I'm saying think romantic.....Nothing says "I miss you much" like Ms Janet Jacksons......

Go to the beach and write them a note in the sand....be creative! 3 little words....that's all it takes.....Women love these things.....it is the simplicity of what a man does that makes a woman remember how special he makes her feel and vice verse.
