People constantly shy away from long distance relationships, not because it involves work but because they are convinced that the relationship will never work.

Being involved in a long distance relationship isn’t a piece of cake but a happy ending is possible!  Here are five ways you can make a long distance relationship work:
1. Get texting
Not only is it cheaper but it is also faster. We understand that lengthy phone calls can be tough to make, texting is boon for all you busy bees. Texting isn’t a cop out, it doesn’t mean you don’t call your partner regularly but sending a couple of texts during the day will make you’ll feel connected.

2. Reaping The Smaller Benefits
The lesser time spent with a partner always ensures more time with friends and family, imagine a life with no arguments, tantrums and anger outbursts and the pleasure of seeing your sweetheart again after a long absence? It is possible with a long distance relationship.

3. Bring on the Challenge
What’s life and love without a little blood, sweat and tears? Long distance relationships are tough but it gives you the time to take up enriching hobbies. They will keep the both of you busy till you meet each other and have ample amount of things to talk about.

4. Stop being a control freak
Realize that you do not own your partner’s life, so stop acting like you do. Constantly informing each other about mundane activities and seeking permission for the small decisions kills the romance in any relationship. Being a control freak does not do your relationship any good but it’ll do enough to wreck havoc.

5. Drop by
Make the time to visit each other once in a while. A relationship cannot sustain itself if the only thing you have is a phone to communicate. Spend some time with your partner, fix a date and mutually stick to it.
