By Jack Roberts


After committing to your long distance relationship for a few weeks, you will notice how hard it can be to keep the romance alive. It is vital to keep in close contact with your partner while you are away from them, which can prove to be quite difficult at first, but with these helpful (and free) tools, your relationship will be much easier to maintain.

The Post

You got it, The Post Office! Emails are easy and instant messaging is fast, but do you remember many years before that when we would mail our letters to each other? Research has found that long distance couples who send love letters to each other have proven to have an exceptionally strong bond.

Relationship Advice Books

Or any other long distance relationship guidance reading material for that matter. Once you feel yourself getting into a bland routine, seek out some great relationship building questions to talk over. You will learn a heck of a lot more about your partner which will strengthen the bond between you.

Online Movie Streaming

Streaming services are regrettably beginning to outdate DVD and BluRay. But that means you don't have to get separate copies of one movie to enjoy watching it together. You can easily sign up for an account, click play together while talking on webcam, and have yourself a cosy night in.

Online Phone Service

And what good would a long distance relationship tools checklist be without a good old internet webcam service? This is by far the greatest and most essential tool you can have for your long distance relationship. It's easy, fast, and free to use. This will allow you to see each other on webcam every minute if you want to. But we really advice against couples spending longer than four hours per day talking together. While talking for long periods of time will initially help you to deal with the distance, it's also healthy to go outside and have independent lives too.

Instragram

This tool is a great way to share your snaps! Instagram is a photo sharing and social networking website. You can take pictures of yourself, implement a filter to them, and share them on Facebook or Twitter for your loved one to check out. You can create an album for each day or week of your time apart, edit their captions so that you can tell them about each part of your day and make it feel like they have been there with you.
