- The hardest thing about long distance relationships is that you can’t just rip each other's clothes off but that doesn't mean you have to miss out. There are plenty of ways you can keep the passion alive when you are in a long distance relationship. Even thought it’s harder you can still keep the passion alive in a long distance relationship.
Always ask
Some people are turned on by pictures whereas others like phone sex and some prefer text messages. Even if you’ve been together for several years and think you know what your partner likes it’s always important to ask. While they may be sensational in person they may not enjoy phone or video sex but they may like receiving dirty pictures. The best thing to do is ask before sending a picture rather than just making assumptions. You can ask your partner simple questions about what they enjoy more and what they like when you’re apart.
Use long distance sex toys
No matter how enjoyable your video sex is and no matter how much pictures turn you on, there’s still a little bit of distance from your partner because you’re still just pleasuring yourselves. Long distance sex toys can help you bridge the gap even if you’re thousands of miles apart from each other. We have a range of sex toys that connect wirelessly through Bluetooth and remote control. What’s even better is that the sex toys interact and work together so it will be just like having sex in person even though you’re physically apart.
Sexting
Sexting can be a really great way to keep the passion alive and let your partner know that they’re on your mind when you’re apart. It’s a great tool when you’re in different time zones and it can also add excitement because you never know when you’re going to receive a dirty text.
It’s up to you and your partner how graphic you want to get. Before you sext it’s good to think about the timing. If they’re in an importance business meeting it’s probably not a good time to tell them that they’re making you hard or wet. Just like regular sex you need to focus on the foreplay and build up slow. The more descriptive you are the better and don’t be afraid to reminisce about the times you’ve shared together. Thinking about past sex you’ve had can be just as much of a turn on as future sex.
Phone sex
While it’s not as spontaneous as sexting, phone sex can be just as, if not more intimate than video sex. It increases intimacy because without the visual aids you solely rely on the tone of voice and the word choices to build the mood. Talking over the phone removes any self-consciousness that a camera can create and it can allow you to explore things that you otherwise wouldn’t talk about. Unlike sexting you need to plan ahead and let your partner know the details. They can’t see you so if you’re touching or stroking yourself then tell them and don’t be afraid to get noisy. Your neighbours won’t know it’s just phone sex.
