Tips To Survive A Long Distance Marriage
Gone are the days when being married meant living under the same roof. Nowadays, we get to see all kinds of marriages. Long distance marriages are now a professional necessity. Sometimes, married couples staying apart are in different cities or even counties. Making a marriage work is difficult in itself. And thus, long distance marriages pose even greater challenges.
There is a famous saying that long distance relationships do not work. So imagine the plight of married couples who are forced to stay apart due to their jobs! Being married is not a promise of permanence anymore. So you have to put in lots of effort to keep your marriage going while staying apart.
Some simple steps can help you connect with your spouse living miles away from you. You also have to rely on your instinct to understand how your partner is feeling. And as distance makes the heart grow founder, your marriage might actually work out better while staying apart.
Here are some of the ways in which you can make a long distance marriage work for you.
Talk Often But Don’t Nag
When you are staying away from your spouse, you obviously need to talk very often. But that does not mean you bagger your husband/wife in the middle of an important meeting. Understanding is the key to lasting relationships.
Don’t Say I Miss You, Show It
Saying ‘I miss you' ten times a day doesn't help. But if you actually send your spouse gifts or say something thoughtful, the message will be clear.
Discuss Everything, No Secrets Spared
Just because you are staying apart does not mean you do not need to discuss everything. Tell your spouse everything that happens in your day. That will help you stay connected.
Long Distance Relationships Also Need Space
Space is important even in long distance marriages. So do not try to suffocate your partner by calling 50 times a day or constantly asking questions about their whereabouts.
Written Words Mean More
When you say something, it might not make such a big impression. But the same words when written carry loads of weight. That is why, writing love letters, emails and text messages help to make marriages work.
Surprise Surprise!
There nothing more exciting than turning up at your partner's house to surprise him/her. This also allows you check what your spouse is up to (read extra marital affair).
Trust Is Your Only Resort
When you are living apart, you have to trust your spouse. If you are insecure, it will disturb your peace and also harm your relationship. Sometimes it is best to have faith.
Be Intimate If Not Close
You cannot be physically close to your spouse in a long distance marriage. But make your talks intimate to keep the fire burning.
Video Chatting, A Gift From Technology
Video chatting is now available even on your mobile phones. So the lack of proximity is all but made up for. Use technology to be in touch with spouse.
Never Stop Having Fights
Fights and arguments are essential for healthy relationships. So don't stop having fights when you are living apart. It keeps things natural and interesting in a marital relationship.
