Celebrating a Long-Distance Valentine’s Day
How to Make Valentine’s Day Special in a Long-Distance Relationship
Valentine’s Day is a day to show your love and affection for your significant other. For many people in a long distance relationship, this day can be a reminder of the distance between them. Even if you can’t spend the day together, there are ways to celebrate your love. Here are some tips to make your Valentine’s Day special.
Have a Date Over Skype
Even if you can’t physically be with the person, you can set up a Skype dinner date. Both people can make their favorite meals and then set your camera up so you can have a virtual date. Crack open a bottle of wine and celebrate each other’s company.
Send Them a Love Letter
Receiving a handwritten note is rare these days, so sending one will be more special than a text. A week or so leading up to Valentine’s Day, get your pen and paper out and think about what you want to tell your loved one. You can include special memories and photos, or even tickets to an upcoming show for the next time you’re together.
Flowers and Special Deliveries
Take advantage of delivery services such as floral shops or food. You can send your loved one a surprise with their favorite pizza and a bouquet of flowers; just use their address when ordering. Try a service like DoorDash to drop off a Valentine’s dinner and then you can cheers over FaceTime.
Surprise Trip
Luckily, Valentine’s Day falls on a Friday this year. If you can swing the cost of a plane ticket or time off work, give your significant other the gift of your presence. Showing up unexpectedly will be a romantic and fun way to start your weekend together.
Send a Care Package
Send your loved one a package including all their favorite things. Care packages on Valentine’s Day should be more about expressing feelings and showing them you care. Include things like photos of the two of you, chocolates, jewelry or a bottle of champagne. Use a Valentine’s Day address label to mail your care package.
Plan a Valentine’s Day Date for Another Day
If you’re unable to visit your partner on February 14th, plan to celebrate Valentine’s on another day. If the next time you’ll see each other isn’t for a few weeks, surprise them with a full out Valentine’s Day date. It will be a fun and romantic gesture they will appreciate and won’t soon forget.
