1 . How to Keep Long-Distance Friendships

Don’t let distance keep you away from your friends. Use these tips to stay close with your friends.

    1     Because of kinds of reasons, you and your friends might not be able to chat on the phone every day or even every week. Anyway, you should try to find suitable time to chat with your friends. My best friend from high school is a new mom and we are in different time zones. But she makes an effort every few weeks to call me on her drive home from work. When I go back home our friendship feels like I’d never left.

Share small things.     2     It can help you know about each other. My friends and I text each other about the small things like having to work late or losing an earring.

Use social media. Using social media is a good way to keep your long-distance friendships going. It allows you to keep up with your friends’ lives. It can also help you learn more about their other friends.     3    

Vacation together.     4       One friend and I haven’t lived in the same state for 5 years, but I can see her on trips. By going on trips, we can not only stay in touch, but also can create new memories together.

Not every friendship is a friendship that can survive long distance.     5
