Six Ways To Make Your Long-distance Relationship Work Better by Hrmkingobi(m): 3:09am On Sep 17, 2019
But the truth is long distance relationships can work. Although dating is hard and takes a lot of commitment from both parties, there are ways you can keep your long distance relation going.
Below you will find tips on how to strengthen your bond with your partner:
1. Avoid too much communication
Generally, the standards as to what is considered too much communication varies from couple to couple. There are two extremities: the couple that communicates too much and the couple who doesn’t communicate enough. You don’t need to compensate for the distance by strangling each other with possessiveness.
There are couples who can last without speaking for three days and remain married for thirty years and there are some who speak every hour and break up after two months. Sometimes when you are calling for too long, there are some jealous questions your partner might want to ask, maybe because your partner hears the voice of a guy around you or that of a female as the case may be, essentially.
The best thing to do is to just go with the flow and do what is normal for your relationship, avoiding too much communication. Some people even spend the whole time quarreling with their partners on phone about past events than discussing relevant and present issues. Remember too much of everything is bad.
2. Keep your outing with friends on a low
Some partners are the jealous and overprotective types. They won’t want to hear that you’re hanging out with a friend, be it male or female. Some male partners get jealous when you hang out with your female friend or a with male friend except if the female friend is someone they have met before. They might have the feeling that the female friend is teaching you some bad things like cheating, partying, clubbing etc.
Your partner might even get angrier when he gets to know that you are handing out with a male friend. You know your partner more than I do, you know what can upset him, so be wise it is not every place you visit you’ll tell him or her to avoid, jealousy and anger.
3. Do things together.
Doing things together can mean a variety of things. visit site for more[https://dailyworldtip..com/2019/07/how-to-make-friends-and-create-strong.html][https://dailyworldtip..com/2019/07/how-to-make-friends-and-create-strong.html]

LDR are a waste of time and can't work.... you need physical contact with someone to make a r/ship last.

But there are people who've done it and it's successful. Relationships where the partners are in contact physically still break.

LDRs are just buffers for simps to claim that they are in a relationship but we liken it to the act of an ostrich burying its head in the sand too afraid to face the harsh truth.....

The above you wrote is very "simple", to say the least ... so because some few people have successfully being in LDR it's right to do it AND, because people in normal r/ship do break up then it means LDR r/ship are ok to get into?! Well, I guess, if we should think in such manner, since married people divorce then it means it's best not to get married, abi?

The reality is that the majority of LDR are a failure and the majority of normal r/ship aint.

You generalized and used the word "can't." That it's never possible for it to be successful. Yeah, and how do you know that "majority" of LDRs don't work? And physical relationships are mostly successful? LOL.

It's only people it never worked for that comes online to vent and bitch about it. The ones that are in it successfully, they don't post or share online...how can you accurately know their numbers?

For physical relationships, ... being together doesn't mean success. Or what's your definition of success here?

Because they still fight, lie, cheat and have all sort of relationship issues. So many people are together for a lot of reasons. Reasons that have nothing to do with LOVE and COMPATIBILITY.

So, how are they successful, if you mean it always work out?
