1. communication
2. communication + be dirty on fone
3. communication + reveal ur daily escapade
4. communication + be romantic on fone. this is almost like being dirty bt a bit different.

The watch word is communication. Never loose it. And never make it boring.

Just my piece.

I need some help on how to keep my long distance relationship alive. We've been together for almost 2 years, the first year we were in the same city but he moved away almost a year ago. We've been fighting so much and with our wedding next July it's worrying. I was hoping I can get some ideas on keeping the romance in our relationship.

Communicate DAILY. Open and honest communication

very very nice reply. Such people are so so timid. They can't say nutty things on fone. It's very anoyin. They are scared of u thinkn dat they r spoilt hence they wana be very careful with their choice of words.

It can be really frustrating and boring at a point i tell you but a distant relationship that survives only grows stronger. I'll share some of my personal tips from experience with you which has helped and is still keeping us going.
1. Visit each other; if you're lucky to be in the same country, visit each other. And if in different countries, still visit. Spend time and money on travels.

2. Video calls/ chats; being able to see each other regularly and talking about EVERYTHING develops intimacy. Send photos, take shots specifically for him.

3. Make an effort and be determined to make things work; if he's a very busy dude like mine, my sister you have to really try. U jst have to pin him down to get things sorted. The longer issues linger, the gap becomes wider.

4. Keep yourself busy; focus on your life too, develop yourself... apart from the personal benefits you gain from this, it tends to take your mind off the thoughts of him for a while. And i'm sure he'll even respect u more for that.

5. Set some rules; in my case, i made it a standard that we should never sleep over a disagreement. We must settle it before it before we both go to bed...i've gone to bed 3am on an occassion because we just had to straighten out things.
We know each other's schedule for the whole day

6.talk dirty to each other and be very romantic; you know what to do tongue
Plus, tell him when you're angry or unhappy about anything because he is not with you physically to see your expressions.

These are the ones i remember for now, i hope they were helpful? Hang in there sis
this my sister must be an Igbo because only Igbos have sense like this. The rest are packets of salt
Re: Keeping A Long Distance Relationship Alive by nkemdi89(f): 12:24am On Apr 03, 2016
Considering the economic situation of the country, the quest for greener pastures has led most partners to live apart, it's all about understanding. My childhood friend in the army always watsapp me to call the wife that he is online due to his inability to make voice call in borno. The important thing is for both parties to be busy as that tend to reduce boredom, what if your partner is always on transfer, does it mean you will relocate every where with him or her?.

Then, how do u guys communicate? He can't be too busy to talk to you for even 15mins a day now. Fine, the video calls can be fixed somehow not the chats...communication is what holds the relationship dear.

I quite understand your current state.
However, I want to let you know that it is something that can be controlled.

One major reason why you both fight when apart is that one or both of you have trust issues. Believe me it can destroy any relationship (both long distance and close relationships).
If one keeps bringing in comments that tend to question the other's commitment, either the other is guilty or not, they'll find a way of exonerating themselves. It may be by just getting angry or doing some silly stuffs or even putting in some kind of provoking reply, and fight begins.

So what should you do?

1. Do you have defined purpose or goal concerning the relationship? Yes, I know you said you're both planning to get married. But is the purpose for your intended marriage clearly defined?

2. Is he trustworthy? Marriage is a long-term relationship. So you must at least be sure of certain traits in your would-be spouse; one of them is trust.

3. Are you trustworthy too? You can lie to everyone but you cannot lie to yourself.

4. Are you sure you are not the annoying one in the relationship? Check yourself very well to be sure. If you are, quickly make amends; that way, he'll see the changes in you and your relationship would have been saved.
If he's the annoying one, and you're sure the things you did at those times you've fought each other shouldn't have provoked him, then he needs special counseling.

If your purpose is clearly defined, both of you can find a way of trusting one another and fix the issue of asking needless annoying questions, it'll most probably work out for you two.

In long distance relationships, you must completely trust one another irrespective of what outsiders say.
So, stay if you can both trust each other and leave if one or both can't.

Add the things Layla said in the earlier post and you're good to go.


All the best dear.

PS: I'm also in a long distance relationship and this thing works irrespective of what majority might say; but it only works when both parties are committed to it.

All the best dear.

Exactly ma dear.

I don't even feel the distance, we talk like we are together, play same way, talk naughty, no matter how much we fight, we always find a balance, and finally transparency is utmost important, trust is one of the things that kills long distance relationship, so try and be transparent to him.
Best of luck.

Communication is key. Keep it up sis
