Show genuine interest in what theyâre doing even when youâre not around!
Text them often to let them know youâre thinking of them!
Plan stuff for you to do together online (like games or movies or Skype)!
Plan or play out hypotheticals of what youâd do if you were to together! (Say âif I were there Iâd snuggle that cute face to oblivion!â)
Give them constant reassurance and update them frequently on what youâre doing so they donât have to worry and feel like the most important person in your life!
If youâre out and see something that reminds them of you, tell/show them! Take pictures of cute stuffies or coloring books and let them know it reminded you of them!
If you can afford it, buy them some of the aforementioned coloring books or stuffies or whatever they may love and assemble a care package to send them!
Write them cute poems or letters and include them in the care packages, or read them to them on Skype or text them to them to wake up to!
Let them know when youâre thinking of them or that you wish they were with you while youâre doing whatever youâre up to!
Read them bedtime stories or watch over them while they sleep on Skype (or FaceTime or Discord or whatever) if youâre able to!
Change your phone background to a photo of them so they know you see them throughout the day and that theyâll be on your mind every time you use your phone!
Let them know how you feel about them with a gentle âI love youâ every ten to fifteen seconds so they donât die from lack of attention.
Involve them in decisions in your day to day life occasionally, like asking them what you should eat or wear. (Even if theyâre too little for decisions and will leave it up to you, it still helps to make them feel involved)
Fantasize about a future together, let them know if things were to work out what kind of life youâd enjoy living together. Itâs important to have a strong long term bond with distance!
Check in on them and make sure theyâre safe frequently to show that youâre concerned about them and their well-being!
Send them lots of selfies! (Apparently they like seeing us, or something weird like that)
When possible try and align your sleep schedules so you can spend as much time talking to each other as possible! (This one can take adjustment on both sides)
When are schedules arenât aligned, send cute texts for them to wake up to, I promise it makes their day much better!
Make them feel better about insecurities but still be supportive of change, like if they donât like how short their hair is you let them know you love it but youâll be happy if they grow it out too!
Make some silly tumblr post like this one letting them know you were up all night thinking of them to the point you didnât even get done some of the stuff you were supposed to because you love them a lot and canât get them off your mind!!

There are so many more things you can do than this, but if I listed everything you could do youâd be scrolling to the moon and back! If youâre struggling to make them feel loved then just use your imagination to think of how you can involve them more in your life, because this is often key to a strong bond which is doubly important with distance!
