Long Distance Relationship Need Advice!?..?!?

Ok well my long distance boyfriend just recently visited me and he returned home today, causing me to bawl my eyes out (after he left my town last night), and again tonight after i had dinner. The next visit for us would be sometime in June 2008 possibly, about some 5 months and 3 weeks away...





Anybody have any ideas of things I/we can do to make that time fly by?


Thanks in advance.Long Distance Relationship Need Advice!?..?!?
Well since we talk i think you got it down..Since you guys talk on aim and play web games together..Well i think maybe talking on the phone more if he gets the chance and watch movies or shows(i love doing this with my bf).... I think maybe just emailing and talking will make time go by cause once you stop thinking about the time and just enjoy talking to eachother the time will go by fast believe me...Long Distance Relationship Need Advice!?..?!?
is it possible to use a web-cam? if so, then you to can stay in touch and even see each other!
Hi... I know it must be quite hard. Aside from the standard fare like YM, email, etc. here are some stuff you can do to help make things seem better.





1. Play games. I don't mean like fool around, but games that will make the wait bearable and a bit more fun. For example, both of you get a table calendar and every day of the 5 months and 3 weeks, write one thing you love about each other. For example December 30, Sunday. I love how you try so hard to cook for me even when you're bad at it. Do it everyday, and when you see each other, you can read what the other person wrote.


2. Make a scrapbook. Whenever you miss him, work on the scrapbook and channel your emotions creatively. Design your photos and write down lyrics of your fave songs, jot down how you feel, etc. This way, you let it out in a healthy way and when he gets back, you can give the scrapbook to him when to remember you by when he goes away again.


3. Encourage each other to keep busy. What I mean is, while you're not with each other, take it as a blessing in disguise: you both have more time for yourselves. Use this time to make yourselves better persons. For example, if you've always wanted to take up dancing, sign up for classes. He can coach a little league team while he's away. You know? Little things that you can do, hobbies or interests that you can pursue and be better at, some ';Me'; time. This will make you feel better about yourself and enable you to use what time you would've spent moping and sulking into productive time.


4. Reach out to others. You and your boyfriend love each other, but there are other people in your lives that maybe you have not been as close with as with each other. Reach out to family and friends that you would otherwise not have gotten/kept in touch with if all your time was spent together.


5. Make your ideas concrete. For example, you both know why you're holding on despite the difficulty: ';We have faith in each other,'; ';You're the only one I want to be with,'; etc. And the comforting thoughts like ';It's not gonna be like this forever.'; Write down these thoughts on posters and put them up on your bedroom walls as reminders.





So that you will never forget. :)
keep effective communication.
Damn! Well, lemme tell you a little story! I just got out of a 17month long distance relationship. I honestly thought I was going to marry that person. But, it is DAMN HARD!!! I don't think it's impossible, but it's HARD!!! The way we kept it going for such a long time was due to communication, honesty, and trusting one another. There really is no ';MAGIC'; thing that makes ';time fly.'; I wish you the best of luck!
stop wasting time...and find a real person
i'm in one right now. i talk to him every day on my messenger and i gave him my phone number so he calls me like 2 a week. maybe this will work for u.
this is why i don't recommend long distance relationships. Absence makes the heart grow a little to fond for some people.
my daughters had a long distance boyfriend for a couple years, she sees him about 3-4 times a year for a few weeks at a time, she lives in wa. he lives in az. they talk on the phone a lot. things are going ok for them, they hope to eventually move to pa. where he lived previously. work and college keep my daughter busy when they're apart...
get out that relationship unless you think it is a match made by God.
write letters!! that way you have something to keep...make a scrapbook out of the letters or keep them somewhere special so you can go back and read them whenever you miss him.





i've also heard that WebCams are good for keeping in touch.





To make the time pass, don't dwell too much on how much you miss eachother. i know it's hard..been there, done that. But you have to create your own little life apart from him because if you don't you'll just isolate yourself and think about him all the time. That's not healthy. Actually, it ruins relationships. Focus on the positive.





Hope it helps!
