5 Fun Online Activities For Long Distance Relationships

Love knows no distance.

In the old days, couples communicated using pen and paper. In contrast to today, with various technological developments, we’re now using smartphones and computers to send love and regards to our beloved.

In a way, the internet has shortened the distance between couples from different continents. It has helped long-distance couples survive and thrive. And if you’re one of these people, here are fun ways you can use the internet to your advantage.

Activities You Can Do Online with Your Long-Distance Partner:

1. Have a meal together or share what you’re cooking.

Whether it’s take-out or something you’ve cooked, it’s fun to share what you’re eating while talking to your beloved. Share what you love about it while she can share what she loves about what she’s having.

You can also mix it up by ordering similar dishes or different dishes from the same restaurant chain. This allows you to share your impressions of the cuisine or the quality of the restaurant you ordered from.

You can also video yourself while cooking in real-time, so your partner can see how well you are in the kitchen. You can even cook at the same time while on live chat.

2. Watch a video together

Schedule an online movie night. Is there a new film on your favorite online streaming platform? Ask if she’s ever seen that movie or series or see if she would be interested to watch it with you. Maybe she has a film that she’s been wanting to see. Take the initiative.

3. Take a stroll around town and show her the sights.

Share something great about where you live. It might be a sight that can be seen from the top of a hill. Maybe it’s a beautiful sunrise or sunset. Maybe it’s the trains you find beautiful. Maybe something that catches your eye when you go through your local park.

How about her? Maybe you can ask the great things about her city. She would be more than happy to share what she finds interesting about the place she lives in.

4. Play online games together.

The point is to do it together. It can be competitive or cooperative. It can be something you haven’t tried playing. It can be a quiz game. Or, if you want to mix it up with friends, the more the merrier. If it’s a puzzle game, these can get pretty competitive as you play. Find one that both of you are comfortable with.

5. Send handwritten letters, flowers, or gifts.

Nothing beats a physical show of affection. It doesn’t matter how good your penmanship is, the fact that you took the effort and it is written on a fine piece of paper is a good gesture of your affection for her. You can put a love letter with rose petals enclosed and a wax stamp if you can find one.

Sending flowers is wonderful. If you can arrange one with a florist near where she lives or works, you can contact them and ask that flowers be delivered to her on a specific day or time. You can hint beforehand that a surprise is coming. It will truly make her day.

Any sort of gift goes a long way. It’s not what you gave or how much it cost but the fact that she was on your mind and heart when you picked it out for her.

As long as it’s about both of you, she’ll love it.

It’s for both of you. That’s all any event needs to bring good vibes. When you eat, watch, travel, or play a game, even if she’s physically far away, it still keeps both of you present in each other’s minds and hearts. When you send gifts her way, the fact they came from you will make her heart beat.

There are many more ways you can have fun together even if the both of you are far from each other. You just need to be creative. Good luck!
