How to strengthen a long distance relationship … Since the beginning of your LDR, everything was going well, but for some time now you feel like there is a gap between you and your partner?
You can’t quite explain why, but things are not like they used to be.
You talk about it between you but things do not progress. You feel lost.
Don’t panic, I’ve been there too! And only a few months after I met my Peruvian girlfriend.
It took me a long time to really understand all the issues behind the notion of « strengthening your long distance relationship ».
We tend to underestimate this phrase, especially in relationships.
In this article, I’m going to reveal a simple technique for strength your long distance relationship. It takes time and investment, but it’s not complicated.
I bet it’s happened to you: you’re having a wonderful time with your partner.
Everything is going well: you often talk together, you manage the arrival of the routine with a master hand and even if everything is not perfect in your relationship, you remain strong in the face of the distance and the lack of your lover.
Yes, you can say it: your long-distance relationship fills you with happiness.
But here’s the thing: you still feel that something is missing.
That this situation, as pleasant as it may be, is getting a little tired.
The craziness of the early days is slowly coming down and your daily habits as a couple are gradually settling in.
But you let it go.
After all, your LDR has always worked like this. Why should it change?
And then one day, it’s the drama.
The event that’s too much to handle and that definitely tips your mind into doubt.
When it happens, you ask yourself 1000 questions:
Does he love me? How far would he be willing to go for me? Do I REALLY matter to him? Am I willing to make all these sacrifices in my life for this person?
This is an extremely difficult time to deal with. You question everything, everything you’ve built up to this point.
It’s part of all relationships, including those where physical contact is impossible.
You may come to a more than bitter conclusion: « my long distance relationship is not that strong. I should have done better ».
…
But is it your fault?
I want to tell you that it’s not at all: nobody taught you how to love at a distance.
Deep discussions about your future and important topics don’t happen often. In the end, you know each other only superficially.
You make relatively important lifestyle decisions without taking the other person’s opinion into account (or hardly at all).
The lack of renewal in your activities and games is slowly killing the romance, attractiveness, flirtation, intimacy that you had intensely at the beginning of your LDR.
As of this writing, I can answer « last week » to both of these questions. I tried 3 new LDR phone games with Kyomi and learned that she can edit videos very well for a beginner.
If you don’t remember, or it was months ago, the problem may have come from here!
Before you ask yourself how to strengthen your long distance relationship, you need to know what the problems are in your relationship.
The time difference complicates everything. I have a 7 hours time difference (France – Peru), I know what I am talking about!
Not to mention everyone’s respective schedules, it is not always easy to find a time slot where everyone is available for a long period of time.
The lack of ideas and creativity also demoralizes.
Because you have to be able to prepare that video call. And you know as well as I do that it’s hard to find something to do remotely that you both enjoy.
Often, we end up watching Netflix and thinking we’ll do better next time.
You need to set up a virtual date night at least once a month.
Something that would resemble a traditional date, but tailored to the distance:
Yes, it sounds silly.
But have you ever tried it?
Have you ever done a date that respects these 6 points?
I assure you that it works terribly well! Every time we finish our video call with Kyomi, we are both very happy with the evening we had. We know that we can go to bed with peace of mind and that our relationship is solidifying for the long term.
The most powerful thing is that it has repercussions on the unconscious: we noticed that we talked more and that we argued less in the days which followed these long virtual love meetings.
The only rule to respect to make it work is to prepare your date in advance.
The most complicated part is not finding a date.
It’s preparing the activities and topics of conversation.
Even your discussions remain natural, spontaneity will only happen if you already have a solid base of things to do during your virtual date!
There are 2 methods:
The first is the one I chose: the long and tedious way.
I got lost on the internet for hours, sorting out the lame activities, the paying ones, the unachievable ones…
It’s hard to find coherent and original information. It takes more time than you think.
Or you can take a shortcut and discover my virtual date night box !
Everything is ready: you just have to set a date for your date.
It’s a thematic box to enjoy a romantic evening without having to worry about it:
Currently, it is not available for sale.
I propose it at the end of each month because I modify it taking into account the return of my customers.
That way, I know what you like and what you don’t like!
