Long Distance Relationships.
10:24 PMThis was highly requested. So yeah, people always ask me "How are you making a real distance relationship work?"
Well here are some tips on how Lundy and I made our relationship work.
** First off to make a long distance relationship (LDR) work BOTH people must be committed to each other and see a future together. **
HOW TO MAKE A LONG DISTANCE RELATIONSHIP WORK:
- Get Involved - Lundy involved me in buying stuff for our townhome, shopping for clothes, etc. This made me feel like I was there with him and actually helping with something.
- Daily Photo - Lundy and I send each other a picture of ourselves almost everyday.
- Morning Text - "Good Morning Baby" "Hope You Have a Great Day Babe" - This started my day off with a smile every morning.
- Phone Calls - This is obvious. But yeah, Lundy and I didn't talk a lot on the phone actually because of his crazy schooling, but he would call me as he was driving home or taking a break from studying. They usually lasted about 20-30 minutes, which is better than nothing.
- Care Packages - I would send Lundy boxes fulled with his favorite snacks, etc or things he needed for his place. (He really liked this. 5 points for Jasmine. Lol)
- Cards - We would send each other funny cards in the mail.
- Date Night - This is the MOST important of all I think. Lundy and I had date night once a week on Fridays. We knew not to schedule anything on Fridays because that's when we would have date night on Skype.
Like I said this is how Lundy and I made it through our LDR, it was VERY hard at times, a lot of tears but I had to keep telling myself this is temporary and it was : )
(Date Night. Lundy had to talk to me in the kitchen a lot cause it had the best lighting.
And me about to cry.)
