This is my first ever LDR, so I’m still learning 😙 but so farrrr from what I’ve learned:
1) Make him feel included & involved in your daily life to compensate the lack of physical existence. Kalo aku caranya dengan send selfie tiap hari, tanya pendapat pas beli barang, vidcall.
2) Make time to talk & feel each other’s presence.
Kalo sibuk or cape biasa kita tetep telponan meskipun ga ngomong. Kadang telponannya sampe tidur juga dengerin ngorok. Simply because we find comfort in each other’s presence.
3) Communicate things clearly☝️
Ga suka sesuatu, ngomong. Butuh sesuatu, ngomong. I tell him what I want, what I need, what I’m uncomfortable with. Also ask him if he’s okay if I’m being clingy etc.
4) Know that each of us have our own life to live.
Ga harus 24/7 sama-sama & ngabarin. Se-clingy nya gue, gue tetep ngertiin dia punya kesibukan juga. Paling kita kayak “ya udah sibuk dulu ya, nanti malem bobo bareng lagi”.
5) Keep the balance. Don’t forget to take care of yourself.
Still, treat yourself, do things that you love, go out & meet your friends.
6) Discuss timeline beforehand.
Gue pribadi dari dulu suka gelisah kalo dikabarinnya belakangan & orangnya ngilang. Jadi gue minta, kalo mau sibuk kasih tau dulu, “sibuk sampe jam 8 ya”, jadi dia ngilang pun gue ga nungguin.
7) Make plans.
I feel like ldr relationship make me question about “kita abis step ini mau ngapain” a lot & I’m happy that he includes me in his future plans.
We also talk about our next meeting, “nanti mam mie karet bareng ya”, “kita ke Bandung ya” etc.
8) Expectations.
This is not only for ldr relationship but for all kinds of relationships.
Feel enough about yourself. You’re good enough, cool enough, smart enough, pretty enough so you don’t expect to have that feelings come from other people.
9) Sending gifts.
The closest we could get to each other physically is by sending & receiving gifts. Beda negara jadi kita saling titip-titipan temen 🤭 tapi sekarang udah bisa saling kirim karena ada taobao 😎
10) It takes two to tango.
Semuanya berlaku untuk kedua pihak. Ga cuma satu. Tips ini kalo dijalanin sendirian juga ga bakal berhasil.
11) Feeling secure.
I feel secure, so is my boyfriend. So we feel secure enough with each other that it left no room for being doubtful, insecure & curigaan.
Though sometimes I wish we met each other sooner, but this is the best time for us.
Kita jadi bisa fokus sama diri sendiri, longing for each other (っ- ‸ – ς) & lebih appreciate hal-hal kecil. Intinya, kita bisa karena kita punya tujuan.
