How to be Romantic in Long Distance Relationships
Throughout our experience working with long distance couples, we
frequently heard that long distance relationship does not have
the elements of romance in it. This is not caused by the lack of
love in long distance relationship but couples in such situation
just do not know how to be romantic to each other. Romance in
long distance relationship is necessary and it can make your
relationship stronger regardless how far your lover may be.
There are million of things you can do to increase the romance
in your long distance relationship. The basic rule here is to
build your ability to show your distance partner that you really
cherish and value the relationship throughout your LDR. Below
are some of the areas you must understand and practice in order
to increase the romance in your long distance relationship.
Sweet Talk
Communication is the most important thing in a long distance
relationship and you must be able to talk sweetly over the
telephone or any cheap channel that you can grab hold. Tell your
partner that how you have missed and love them on their absence.
Remember to tell your distance partner that you still treasure
and care for them even when they are not physically around. Let
them know that although you cannot be with them but you
constantly think, enchanted and fascinated by them. Sweet talk
can never be too much and you can do it as often as you like
whenever you got the change to speak or communicate with your
distance lover.
Listening with Care
Listening is the next most important thing in long distance
relationship. It is important to be able to listen and
understand completely the things that your partner is telling
you whether it is about their day, wants or dreams. You are
their only trusted person that they can look for to share and
let their anger off without having to worry and therefore you
must be able to listen with care when your partner needs you to
lend them your ear. Sharing with your partner will always allow
you to build and enhance the romantic moment in your
relationship.
Love Note
Nothing is better that a written note with "I love you" message
on it. Include this note whenever you send a letter to your
distance partner or every time you send something to them. When
you had the chance to meet your long distance partner, slip this
note into their wallet, handbag, briefcase and etc without their
knowledge. The note can be anything from simple "I miss you" to
full blown love letter letting you distance partner know how
much you have miss him or her.
Virtual Kiss
It may seem that kissing your partner is almost impossible in
long distance relationship but you can always give a virtual
kiss to your partner. You can always make a lipstick mark on a
handkerchief with your mouth or write a "Kiss in Advance" note
on a paper and send it to your partner. Tell your partner that
you wanted to give them a kiss in advance and ask them to keep
the handkerchief or note to remind you of the kiss when he or
she sees you the next time.
Having Fun
Having fun is an important and serious matter in long distance
relationship. Take the time to have fun with your distance
lover. Both of your can always spend your time playing online
computer game, surfing the internet, watching a movie at the
same time or as well as spending the whole evening telling jokes
to each other on the phone. Remember the good times that you
both had while together and share them while chatting on the
phone. You can also tease and make joke on your partner just to
lighten up your conversation from time to time. Anyway you must
know the limit as over teasing can cause hurt on your partner.
The idea is to have fun while both of you had the opportunity to
talk to each other on the phone.
Courtesy and Respect
Courtesy and respect are very important in long distance
relationship. You partner may not be physically around but they
are still part of your life and a little courtesy or respect can
definitely pull both of your closer to each other. Remember to
seek for your partner's opinion in making a decision concerning
the relationship and this will indirectly show them that you
still care for them. Being romantic is to care, respect and
understand your partner regardless where they may be.
Giving Compliments
Complimenting your partner is another way to show that you
appreciate them in a long distance relationship. Think of
something to complement your distance partner every day or every
week. It does not have to be anything big or major. Something
like "You look beautiful today" or "Your voice is sweet" will
make your partner feel nice about them self even they are far
away. On the other hand, you must remember to give only a
sincere and honest compliment to your long distance partner.
Your partner will certainly feel romantic knowing that you still
admire and appreciate them despite the distance.

examples. Be passionate about your LDR and romance will
