Hi, I'm Donna Barnes, I'm a life and relationship coach and owner of NY Dating Coach in New York City. In this clip, we'll talk about how to handle a long distance relationship. It depends on how long the distance is really and how long of a time its going to be a long distance relationship. If you're permanently going to be in very far away cities, that's really hard thing. But if its only for a short time, you can actually go back to the old age of romance and get into writing love letters to each other. Its a really great thing. And yeah, e-mail is instant, but if you really take a hand written card and mail it, that's a nice thing. If you are in separate cities, you need to make sure that you talk daily and really keep that interaction going with each other. And then if you've met while you were living in separate cities and now you're talking about moving together, make sure you really spend long periods of time together because it can be a false identity on the relationship that its absence makes the heart grow fonder and you have these exciting little trysts every weekend when you see each other, but all of the sudden when you're living in the same town, it might be a completely different relationship. So make sure that it is what you really think it is. This is Donna Barnes, life and dating coach in New York City.
