The holidays are here. Gift stores are packed full of variety of gifts that can be presented to loved ones during this Christmas. However, for some couples, they do not have the luxury of being together as they would wish. This should not in any way dampen affection or sour the joy of the season. Couples in long distance relationships can have as much a rewarding celebration as couples who are together during this period.
A private getaway
According to Yewande Adekoya-Abiodun, a.k.a. Kudi Klepto, actress and producer, she desires a private weekend getaway for herself and her spouse with no distractions. A partner can pay a surprise visit to the significant other. Considering the reason for the compulsive separation during this period, the getaway doesn’t have to be for an entire weekend. Just a few hours together is enough to do the trick.
A Skype surprise
Taking advantage of the cheap and available internet subscription plans, plan a Skype video chat. A video chat is preferable because it creates the intimate feeling of being together. You can see each
other and almost exchange touch. You could even play dress up and take still pictures of the environment where you are to give the partner a feeling of being in the same place.
Gift chocolate
With the availability of online shops, it is now less of a hassle to buy gifts online and ensure delivery to the significant other. Romantic gifts to commemorate the holiday season include wristwatches, sunglasses, teddy bears and chocolate. Even men love chocolate. The holiday is the perfect excuse to indulge. Besides, chocolate has been proven to have certain health-improving properties.
Ecards/animated illustrations
Electronic cards and animated illustrations that come alive when the email is opened are inexpensive gifts that can help to make the Christmas memorable for partners in a long distance relationship. A variety of options are available online. Just be willing to search a bit deeper into the Internet so the gift doesn’t seem commonplace.
Love-themed throw pillows
Order and exchange nice and soft feathery throw pillows with cute illustrations that symbolise love. When both partners sleep at night, the dreams are better imagined. Besides, just holding the pillow close will feel like holding the significant other physically. The holiday will sure be worth spending apart.
