Archive for the ‘Long Distance Relationships’ Category
Long distance relationships are on the rise and they don’t seem to be slowing down. The internet chat/dating sites have opened the world up to us right on our computers.
While most people do not consider long-distance relationships, for all those that don’t work out long-term – there are those that do. However, there are some basic rules to follow if you are both really interested in working it out over the distance you have between you.
1. Keep in touch – that is a must
2. Spend time on the phone as well as chatting and email
3. Be available at regular times to communicate – this builds trust in each other
4. Do not fight using texts – it is much better to pick up the phone and work it out with live voices.
5. Spend some in-person time when you both can
6. Sent gifts – they are powerful messages
These are just a few of the things I hear over and over again when doing readings. Regular and consistent communication is a real effort sometimes, but, you need to be available even though you make it shorter than usual.
There does need to be some ground rules, especially when you are upset in the relationship. Discuss this long before it happens, what you will and will not do while you are upset. The other person needs to know what to expect when you are angry or upset.
1. Do you just ignore the other person? If so, for how long? Everyone knows their own style when it comes to being upset.
2. Do you change your communication? i.e., if you are used to chatting, do you revert to emailing instead?
3. How long do you stay upset?
The solution lies directly in communicating effectively. Punishing the other person by ignoring them could prove fatal to your relationship. Decide how you will both handle being upset with each other and the things you will and will not do. Since the other person is not around you, they need to know you are still ‘there’ for them. Communicating is the only true answer here.

Most of us have looked for true love at one time or another. Some find it, some never do. Most of us are destined to meet someone eventually that brings us contentment and true love. If you have been searching and not finding your perfect man, here are some tips to help you hook up.
1. Cut down on that long drive to/from work. You might have to move, but, this will free up some time for finding love and establishing a relationship.
2. Join a gym, or workout at home; women who are in shape attract men. It tells them you care about how you present yourself. There are lots of single guys at the gym.
3. Get involved in any activity that you are passionate about. This increases your chances of finding your ideal mate; you’ll have something in common.
4. Take a vacation with your girl friends; you know that men will be hanging out; they are looking too, so, book that singles cruise or group hike.
5. Take goal oriented vacations or short, weekend trips; like a jazz theme, guest ranch, or combine it with a workshop.
6. Volunteer at a local charity organization. You will find like-minded prospects.
Write down your goals and stick to them. Plan at least once per week doing some activity that supports your goal. Getting together with girlfriends regularly to attend a function that stimulates your interest will put you in a relationship-rich environment. If you like what you are doing, chances are, your future mate does, as well.
Just dreaming about your future relationship will not make it happen. Sitting home with no plans is a sure fire way to make sure your dream remains just a dream. The Fed-Ex or mail man doesn’t know that you are looking. Putting yourself out there, puts you in touch with people.
Hope is not going to get you anywhere, but, taking an action will. This will put you in a position of meeting more people. Take your neighbor or co-worker up on any invitation to that summer BBQ. Everyone loves a chance to enjoy some great food and social good times.
Organize a block party or a beach picnic and tell your friends to bring someone you don’t know; make sure he’s male! Let your friends know you are looking. It is amazing what they can do for you. You never know when their cousin or brother’s friend may come to town for a visit.
If you have a dog, get out there and walk it and often. Dogs are great ice-breakers for initial conversations. Taking classes where you and your dog participate is a great way to meet a future partner. If you are the shy type, let your dog do the barking!
Just putting a little effort out there, along with networking among friends, neighbors and co-workers, will keep it fresh in their minds that you are seriously looking. This greatly enhances your chances of meeting your soul mate.
He’s out there! Set your sites on a future mate and before you know it, you will end up with the love of your life! Believe in your dreams; they really can come true!
