1. Do not be too clingy and possessive.

"Many couples thought that they need to compensate for the distance by doing more," Life Hack shared. "It's really about teasing at the right moments and tugging at the right spots." Being too clingy and possessive is just going to make your long distance relationship even more unbearable.

2. Look at your long distance relationship in a positive light.

Rather than looking at your long distance relationship negatively, look at it as a test of your love for each other. A relationship that collapses and dies because of not being together physically is one of the biggest signs that you do not have a strong enough love for each other. A couple that is truly in love with each other will not give up on their relationship even if they are physically apart.

3. Set some rules and boundaries.

One of the best tips for making a long distance relationship work is to set rules and boundaries for each other and to do your best to abide by them. "The whole point of a relationship is to be open and close with someone, to grow and trust each other and to love one another," Attraction Institute shares. "You should set rules and boundaries to make your life peaceful."
