6 romantic ways to celebrate Valentine's Day in a long-distance relationship

Couples in most parts of the world plan ahead of February 14 to create fond memories. But when you are all by yourself, and your significant other is somewhere miles away, it can be tough.

 

Nevertheless, you can still have a romantic time this Valentine together with your partner even while he is away physically by following these steps:

The 'I love you' call

This might sound cliché but trust me it’s so important. You probably call your partner every day, but on this special day, don’t forget that romantic “I just called to say I love you” phone call. You can do this first thing in the morning. The fact is your partner hearing you say “I love you” as soon as they wake up can make them feel good, loved and special for at least the whole day.

You can have a movie marathon over the phone

You might in the process laugh at some of the funny scenes together or get horny over the romantic ones. This will surely make your night.
