💕Let’s face it - long-distance relationships are hard! Being away from your loved one can take a toll on your emotional and mental well-being. But, just because you’re far apart doesn’t mean that you can’t stay close. In this blog post, we’ll share some tips on how to maintain intimacy in your long-distance relationship.

Communication is Key💬

Communication is the backbone of every relationship, and a long-distance relationship is no different. With distance between you and your partner, communication becomes even more important. You need to be intentional with your communication as it’s the only way to keep each other in the loop about your lives. Be honest and open with each other about your feelings, schedule regular face time calls, and send each other care packages.
