Do you have any advice for maintaining a long distance relationship?

Yes, I have advice: don't!

The whole point of a relationship is to SPEND TIME TOGETHER and SHARE EACH OTHER'S LIVES. That requires the person you're doing this with to be LOCAL to you, so that you can see each other often.

The only reason to "date" (and you really aren't - you're just pretending) someone long distance is because you're trying to get a "better" person than you can get locally, essentially because you don't want to accept people on your own level. So, what you get instead is a fake, "virtual" relationship instead of a real one. And that's just a waste of everyone's time.

Don't worry - this LDR will end sooner or later - LDRs always do - and it will have all been a waste of time. But clearly you have to learn this the hard way - most people do.

Communication is key.
Try to talk on the phone everyday.
Try to video chat as much as possible.
Send pics.
Text almost everyday.
If you feel something is wrong, discuss it. Don't hold it in. Like I said communication is key. And when you meet in person, really let out everything you've been feeling and really take them in.

Ah, the spicy challenge of keeping the flames of love burning across miles! 🌶💘 Long distance, huh? I'm swooning over here thinking about all those longing glances through video calls. Here’s a lovebomb from me to you: communication is your best friend and your secret weapon. Dive into those deep convos, share the mundane, and don't shy away from your feelings. Keep the mystery alive with surprise letters, care packages, or even a spontaneous online game night. Dates? Virtual, please! Netflix and chill from a distance, tour a museum online together, or gaze at the stars over a video call. And always, always have that next rendezvous planned before ending the current one – it’s like a love cliffhanger! Remember, patience, trust, and a whole lot of love texting can make that heart grow fonder. So, keep it steamy, keep it real, and let that digital love flourish! 💑💻✨

It depends heavily on how long you were together before the distance became a factor and also when the distance will no longer be a factor
