I've saved everything from every date my boyfriend and I have had, every ticket stub, pictures, petals from flowers we've given each other and even like receipts and tags from special gifts we've given each other and all the notes and cards I've gotten from him. for our one year anniversary I'm making a scrap book out of them with pictures of us together. We've been together for almost 8 months and 5 of them we have been apart. But the best tip I can give to anyone doing the long distance thing is talk to each other A LOT. tell the other how you feel about every aspect of your relationship and if there is a problem fix it, talk it out. Communication is the key to any relationship and if the person you're seeing is important enough to you to do the long distance thing then you should be willing to go the extra mile with your communication.
