Fun Activities for Long Distance Relationships

As I have spoken about before, I have several long distance friendships. It can be hard to sometimes to stay connected and keep our friendships strong. It’s a very unconventional way to be friends or have a relationship with someone, it’s almost alien to us as humans. We crave human contact and social interaction, so you have to become quite creative in your relationships to keep that level of interaction up.

The main way we ensure we do that is by being intentional with one another. Putting aside time to speak on FaceTime or sending letters and care packages to name a few. In todays post I’ll go through some things you can do to keep your long distance relationships thriving!

The 5 Types Of People You Should Surround Yourself With

I regularly speak on the types of people you should surround yourself with and how it has such an impact on who you are as a person.

Learning About Toxic Relationships

Learning About Toxic Relationships

[Guest Post]

Hi everyone. I’m Lima, a Relationship and Lifestyle Blogger and I happen to love tasting the waters, so I have made a lot of mistakes as a Christian. I am not exactly proud of everything I have been through that’s why I teach people how to avoid them. You can read all about it here.

I remember sitting in my room and looking through the wedding invites I have for the remainder of this year, some I have to attend and others I can just watch from home. I was delighted at first about the union until I thought about the number of people that might end up rushing into relationships just because they have one or two friends that are about to say I do or are a happy couple. This still remains the major reason people try to tolerate a toxic relationship, and try to manage the hits.

Why Long Distance Friendships Are Worth It

For most of my adult life I have had long distance friendships. Me and my friends maintain a pretty regular friendship with 4,000+ miles between us. We met when they came here to the UK from America. They came here for a semester (around 4 months) to study and work at the church I attend. Long distance friendships, similar to long distance relationships can be hard to maintain but I’m here today to tell you why they are so worth it.

How to Lovingly Let Go of Friendships

I wrote a post a few weeks ago called ‘How to Lovingly Let Go of Relationships” and it mainly focused on relationships in the sense of romantic relationships. And I thought it would be good to talk on the subject again, but this time about friendships in particular. I think at times when friendships end it can be harder than relationships, depending on the reasoning behind the friendship ending.

Letting go of any type of relationship isn’t easy, especially when you can feel that things have shifted or changed between you. I hope to make it easier for you by going through some advice from when I have been through it myself. Its not easy letting go of anything, but we should do things in love always.

Sweetening our selves for some other person’s taste can often be tempting, especially when we are romantically interested in them.
