5 Pieces of Advice for Long Distance Relationships


Long Distance Relationships are always seen by others as a stress-enduced thing. Here are some ways to eleviate the stress and have a happy and healthy relationship!

  1. Always Communicate
  • There are a lot of obstacles in an LDR. Having a good source of communication maintains the strength of your relationship. Video chatting is a great way to talk to your significant other. Skype, Facetime and Facebook Messenger are a few of many apps that will keep your communication skills on key. 2. Share your Passions
  • It’s always a great thing when someone has the same passions as you. Opening yourself up and sharing things you love with people who are important to you makes you feel connected on a deeper level. If you never ask, you will never know!

3. Send Some Love

  • Mail from your significant other is an amazing feeling. Sending sweatshirts with your scent on them is really romantic, and they won’t miss you every night because you will be right there with them. Sending letters seems old-fashioned, but it’s super adorable. Like as adorable as a puppy..

4. Let them know about what you’re doing.

  • You don’t have to necessarily tell them at each moment of the day, but a few updates keeps your partner feeling involved and loved. Send them pictures of your surroundings. Text them about exciting things. Involve them in your life.

5. Love knows no bounds.

When you find the right person, distance doesn’t matter. Even through the distance, there is still love and happiness. Once you share that with the perfect person, you will be set for life.

Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
