Virtual Date Nights
Light some candles, whip up the same meal (bonus points for delivery!), and set up a video call. Movie night with simultaneous streaming? Absolutely! These virtual dates recreate the fun of spending time together, even from afar.
Surprise Each Other
Who doesn’t love getting a gift in the mail? Send a handwritten letter, a care package filled with their favorite treats, or a small token that reminds them of you. These unexpected gestures show you’re thinking of them.
Plan Your Next Adventure
Even if it’s just a tentative date, planning your next visit together gives you both something exciting to look forward to. It also reaffirms your commitment to keeping the connection strong.
Share a Journaling Journey
Start a shared journal where you write about your day, thoughts, and feelings. Exchange it during visits or mail it back and forth. It’s a personal way to stay connected and learn more about each other’s worlds.
Game On!
The internet is bursting with multiplayer games, from board games and card games to exciting adventures! Find one you both enjoy and have some fun bonding over virtual competition (or collaboration!).
Make a Mixtape (or Playlist!)
Create a playlist filled with songs that hold special meaning for your relationship. When you miss each other, hit play and let the music transport you back to shared memories.
Become Book Buddies
Choose a book to read together, discussing it as you go. This unique shared experience fosters conversation and deeper connection.
Learn Something New, Together
Take an online class or workshop that interests both of you. Whether it’s mastering the art of sushi making, learning a new language, or tackling a fitness challenge, learning together keeps things exciting and gives you plenty to chat about.
Find a Shared Virtual Hobby
Do you both love painting, writing, or photography? Explore your passions virtually! Sharing a hobby allows you to connect on a whole new level and create something special together.
Celebrate from Afar
Birthdays, anniversaries, and other special occasions don’t have to lose their magic just because you’re apart. Send gifts, cards, or plan a virtual celebration to make the day feel extra special.
Surprise her/him with a spontaneous visit
