Distance Relationship

The best piece of long distance relationship
advice I can give is establish ground rules in
the beginning. I think the fundamental
differences between a long distance relationship
and a standard relationship is such that
participants need to be more proactive at the
onset in establishing a framework to build the
relationship in.
3
The framework I am speaking of is truly the
foundation that your relationship will be built
upon. Rome wasnt built in a day and neither will
your long distance relationship. A good way to
start though is to establish a set of ground
rules that you and your partner agree upon and
think will be a solid foundation on which your
relationship will build.
4
Establishing ground rules is something you will
want to do at the onset of your relationship.
This will eliminate any surprises that can have
some major consequences.
5
To date or not to date that is the question- You
both have to agree on this. You will want to
discuss whether you can see other people or if
this is going to be a monogamous relationship. If
you do agree on an open relationship then you
will also need to discuss the ground rules of
those other relationships. There has to be a
clear line that cant be crossed.
6
Chatterbox- You dont get to see each other or be
physically with each other so you have
communicate often. Setting up ground rules about
communication will be very helpful to your
relationship. You should discuss how often to
communicate, the methods of communication and set
up a schedule for communication.
7
Discuss the different ways you may want to
communicate. Today you can use the telephone,
instant messaging, email and many other options
thanks to technology. If you lose the
communication then your relationship will suffer,
so it is important that this is a major focus of
your relationship
8
Visiting each other- You will want to try to have
regular visits with your long distance love. This
is an area that could be a challenge, but you
both need to commit to visits. You should discuss
how to handle things is there is an issue and
someone will miss a scheduled visit. You dont
want anyone to end up with hard feelings if a
visit needs to be rescheduled.
9
I hope the above will help you in finding a
where to start in your long distance love. The
most important piece of long distance
relationship advice I can give is to really
stress at the onset of where you are, where you
want to be, and how youre going to get there. By
setting ground rules at the very beginning I
think your relationship will be able to achieve
happiness in a more efficient manner.
