Long distance love

[**StRiPpEd*AwAy**]

Hey guys,
been in a long distance relationship with my boyfriend for a year already, and now he just left for ANOTHER year of college... :(
I'm really upset about this, and I was wondering if you guys know of anything that could help me cope with him being away? Also, anything sweet that I can do to keep some spark and romance in our long-distance relationship even tho he's away? Like what kinds of things would you guys out there love to have in a care package that I can send him? (stuff like food, love notes, cd's,...what else?)
thanks so much!!! xoxoxo

Try and send him love letters every other day or every week... make sure you put perfume on them and stuff to make it all perfect smelling and smell like you.

Put some pictures of you in there hehe wink wink you know what i mean ... naked ones

Send him carepackets of your cooking... or just things you did together... things he likes things you bought for him that made you think of him and give them to him

Say you are spending a weekend over your friends house and instead suprise him at his collage if you don't have anything to do that weekend.. just have fun with it and be creative

I think I'm a master at this answer. We went from long distance to living together back to where we're long distance again.

I dont suggest doing the letters every other day. I think spontaneous letter writing is better. You didn't say how long the distance was but someone could drive to the other for a couple days or something. Get your cuddle/sex on then and have some romantic time. About the only thing I can tell myself is that I'll just have to deal. And dont mean to burst your bubble but whatever you do, it wont be the same as being there but you can do little things to make it more liveable with. Luckily with the internet, webcams, and high speed being so popular you could at least see each other even if not in person. It makes my day to just see her face every day.

I just couldn't help but to reply to this one. My husband and I used to have a long distance relationship, we met online. It was really hard at first, but things started to get easier. We chatted about everyday if only for a few minutes. We sent each other emails. Sent cards and letters snail mail.
Even though we are married now, we don't get to spend much time together due to different schedules. So the ways we keep in touch with the more romantic side of our relationship are great. We both keep journals. We write about things we have done over the past week, our thoughts and many other things. This means more than just letters because you don't always put things in their right order. Just whatever pops into your mind at that paticular moment is what you write. You connect all over again each time you read/write. After a couple of weeks we trade journals and read what the other has written. You could mail your journal entries or make copies of them to send. This should be fairly cheap.
Make a dating book for him (guys can make one for her). Take all the pictures and love letters and other items that you have and compile them. It doesnt have to be fancy, just enough to get the message across. Write about what you felt and especially write the days and where you went on your dates. Or just anything else you can think of. *Its especially *good for long distance relationships because when they start to miss being with you, all they have to do is grab the book you made for them and they relive every moment all over again.
Another way is to make home videos and send to your beau. Those are great and you can always rewind and watch again!
*There is also something else that could be done. This would all depend on your taste, and if you have a digital camera. Make him an invitation stating that he is entitled to 1 semi-nude, sensual, romantic photoshoot. He gets to be the photographer. Mail the invitation to him. While you are waiting on your next visit with him, stock up on cheap but nice props. He'll be dying to get to you. It's every womans dream to be a centerfold and its every mans dream to make love to one.
You can even take this a step further. Print out your pictures and make him a magazine. Make it look just like one, only you are the topic of everything in it.
Holding onto romance and spice in a ldr is fairly simple, all it takes is some creativity.
