How To Have An Awesome Long Distance Valentine In 5 Steps

It's not easy, we know. But why don't you make the best out of what you have? This is what we did, it's your turn now!

Let's be honest. You can't. It sucks.

Valentine's day is one of the worst days in a LD couple. Unlike other love birds, this day reminds them of how far they are and how lonely they can feel. And I'm not gonna lie to you and say that this day will be awesome if you handle it well, because nothing can beat spending this day -more than any other day- in the arms of your other half.
