A few weeks ago I wrote about my experience with long-distance relationships. It’s one thing if you are married to someone that does a lot of traveling for their job, your home is still their home base.
But how do you make it work if you live in the states and your new bff with benefits is contemplating taking a new job in Great Britain? Or what if you met Mr. or Mrs. Right while playing your favorite online game, AKA Minecraft or League of Legends, and discover you are in San Diego and he is in NYC?
It actually is possible to make a long-distance relationship work, and Date Edinburgh Singles, if you are willing to put in a bit of time and effort.
Top Tips to Make Your Cross Country Relationship Work
First, you need to set some ground rules for your cross-country romance including Mature Edinburgh Dating. Are you going to have a committed and exclusive relationship or is it going to be a more open arrangement where you are both allowed to date other people?
Once you’ve decided on what type of relationship you and your bff are going to have, then it’s time to keep the lines of communication open. It’s not like you are going to see each other everyday – you may only get to see each other in person a few times per year.
So, just how do you keep a relationship fresh even when you are physically separated by many miles, states or countries? That’s where technology plays a key role in making long distance relationships work.
