Display your creativity by composing a song or writing a love letter/poem for your girl. Send her “good morning” and “good night” messages. These will remind her that you keep on thinking about her.

 

4. Give her assurance about your love every day.

Say “I love you” every day. These words may seem common and overused, yet they mean much which can give her romantic excitement.

12. Consider “snail mail” and “open when letters”.

Focusing on the distance that separates the two of you can be despairing. That is why you have to find ways to keep the love vibrant and flourishing.

Aside from using gadgets and going online, you can choose the classic ways of conveying sweet messages. Let her feel your love by sending a “snail mail” or giving her “open when letters”.

Though it takes time, snail mail is a great opportunity to send personally handwritten romantic messages. But for faster delivery, you can use a graphic tablet or smartpen to capture your handwriting and send them via email.

Open when letters, on the other hand, can be given to her before you part ways. She can read them every time she needs encouragement and assurance of your love.

 

13. Buy “couple shirts” or “matching jewelry”.

Couple shirts and matching jewelry are popular with lovers. They signify the strong connection or bond of the two lovebirds. Whenever you wear the jewelry or shirt, you are reminded that even distance cannot separate her from your love.

 

14. Make plans about your future together.

Let your girlfriend know that you see a future with her. Do not feel awkward talking about the progress of your relationship with her. Tell your girl, “I am looking forward to being with you for the rest of my life.”

Aside from making plans about your future together, you can also discuss your next meeting or reunion. Outline the activities you will do together when the long wait is finally over.

 

15. Pray for her.

Never forget to include your girlfriend in your daily prayers. Praying for her is one of the most loving ways you can perform as a boyfriend. Though you cannot be there for her 24/7, embrace her with your prayers. Pray not only in times of crisis but when everything is going well too. By doing this, you invite God into your relationship and put Him at the center of it.

A mixture of bad and good things happens in every relationship. With the help of prayers, you allow God to move in your midst as a couple. Pray for protection, strength, joy, and all other concerns. Thank the Lord for bringing her into your life.

 

Despite the distance, keep the fire burning.

If you really love your girlfriend, you will find ways to exhibit your love for her. No matter how far the distance is, you will do anything to keep the relationship working.

Furthermore, having a long distance relationship with her requires a lot of courage, dedication, commitment, and trust. When all these surpass the distance, you can surely get through the challenges and struggles.
