Couples in long distance relationships often need to be creative to find ways to keep the romance alive, though. The rewards of working on the relationship can be well worth the effort.
Snail Mail
Keep the postal workers busy by sending romantic tokens to your boyfriend through the mail. These should be sentimental tokens of your love and a way to show him you are thinking of him. Send something small you saw at a flea market that reminded you of him, a scarf or a hat.Send a mix CD you made for him, or a love letter. Send a puzzle you made from a picture of you. Make a silly video and send it to him.

Movie Date
Have a weekly phone or web cam date where you both watch the same movie together. Talk and laugh on the phone or web cam during the movie. Having a shared experience brings you closer and gives you something additional to talk about.
Dinner
Have a surprise dinner delivered to his house by a local restaurant. Call him that day and ask what his plans are to be certain he will be home that night. When the food is delivered, you can both have dinner together on the web cam or phone.
Save for later
