Arguing As A Distance Couple

It’s likely to happen. Sometimes you can’t stop it from happening. When 2 separate people with a slight difference on their views are put together, there are bound to be a few disagreements. But don’t fret because it’s perfectly natural to have a few arguments with your lover as long as it isn’t too frequently. That’s why I’ve given a handful of recommendations below to bear in mind when you are fighting, and the steps to take after fighting in a distance relationship.

In The Argument

Choose Your Words Cautiously
Often when 2 people get into an intense disagreement they totally lose control and they usually say things to each other that they wouldn’t dream of saying in a normal conversation. We know you will be very angry. And sometimes it may be their fault entirely. And you may actually be an angel. But remember to choose your words carefully. Take some deep breaths and think it over before you say anything. This will help shield your significant others feelings and will speed up the making up process down the road.

Stop Talking Until You Both Are Calm
Until you have cooled down it isn’t going to do any good talking to your significant other. It’s probably best to cease all communication until you have cooled down and are ready to make up with the other. No Skype. No phone calls. No text messages.

The Making Up Process

It’s Not About Who’s To Blame
It’s not about who’s to blame for the argument. It’s about the cause of the argument. If you have disagreements something that they don’t like about you, then maybe it’s time to change the something they don’t like. A lot of couples have an, “I won’t change for no-one” attitude in a relationship. Take it from me and a few other experienced couples, the ones that can change and do change are the couples that have a strong life-long relationship with one another.

Remember That You Are On Your Significant Others Side
As you grow closer together, you have to learn to make important decisions with each other. The choices that will determine your future. If you love each other, and are both active in the relationship, then you will both want to work towards the same positive outcome. Remember that you are both on the same team.

Mail An Apology Letter
A nice touch after you have made up is to write your lover a letter explaining that you are sorry about hurting their feelings. Let them know you don’t want to argue anymore, but be sure to let your feelings be known about the situation. You might send a present along with it to try to make amends.

Things To Do When Meeting Your Internet Sweetheart

Imagine this. After traveling for miles and miles, you finally get to see your long distance partner. You decide to go to the movies. You’ve picked a good movie to see. You’ve got the pop-corn. And as the theatre lights go down you both fall silent.

Does anyone else see what’s wrong with this picture?

So you may be lucky enough to get a full weekend together, or maybe just a few hours, however long you are planning to spend with your partner, choosing a date where you are both silent for the entire time is NOT a great idea.

A better idea would be to pick some dates where you can chat and bond with one another. If you really think about it, i’m sure there are plenty of great dates you can have. But in the case that you are struggling, we have mentioned our favourites below.

Star Gazing

Drive 20 minutes away from the city lights. Take a blanket and some warm chocolate.. For the true astronomers, there is an iphone application called “Star Walk” where you can monitor the constellations and stars. This is an awesome opportunity to chat, share stories and really bond with your partner.

 

Ice Skating

A date at the rink can be one of the most fun of all. Chances are you will end up holding onto each others hands and wrists to try to keep yourself from falling. If it’s your first time then you may find that you fall a lot. But you shouldn’t worry, even the professionals fall over on the ice now and again. Gentlemen, never forget to give your lover a hand when she is getting up. And Ladies, please try not to snicker too much when he falls over. This date can get rather physical and pretty soon you’ll be pretending to fall just so that you can grab onto them.

Walking

Pack a picnic, a map, and go spend the day together in the wonderful great outdoors. Be sure you take a camera for those perfect picture moments, and remember to bring along a makeshift first aid kit and plenty of liquids to drink. With this date you will learn to develop your abilities to make good decisions together.

Aquarium

An aquarium is a fantastic place to spend the day with your long distance lover. Chances are during the morning it will be quite quiet and it will offer some impressive sights of dolphins swimming through the tanks. You can sit all day and talk with each other, learning cool stuff about the animals, and also learning more about one another.

Dining

It doesn’t have to be anything expensive, although it can if you wish. Sometimes your sweetheart will really be grateful for you preparing a meal for them. No matter where you pick to have a dinner date, nothing quite beats eating by candles burning and a rose on the table. And gents, let me give you some guidelines. A lady just loves it if you cook a fancy meal for them. Pasta is my personal favorite. Just remember spaghetti isn’t just for a couple of cartoon dogs to enjoy.
