3 Survival Tips for a Long Distance Relationship

The success rate for long distance relationships is pretty slim.

Here are 3 tips on bettering your odds and protecting your relationship from being destroyed by distance.

1. Use any and all means to stay connected. Skype, Facetime, emails, Facebook, texts, postcards, love letters in the post and personal visits whenever possible.

2. Plan your future together. Set milestones for visits, vacations, and the eventual reunion. Create a fun way to count down to the next time you’ll be together.

3. Make your communication meaningful. You need to move beyond, “how was your day” and “missing you” if you want to draw closer while you are apart.

I highly recommend Michael Webb’s 1000 Questions for Couples. You can get all the questions at once or he will even email them to you 3 or 4 a day for 300 days. That way you can spread out the questions and grow deeper in your relationship over a 10 month period of time.

P.S. I’ve seen studies that show that over 80% of long distance relationships do not survive. But, those who have “good communication” daily have over a 65% success rate.

Michael was in a long distance relationship with his wife early in his relationship so he knows what questions are vital to your success.
