The Most Common Problems in a Long-Distance Relationship

problems in a long-distance relationship

Ever wondered why the distance that’s supposed to make the heart grow fonder leaves you grappling with unexpected challenges and emotions?

Long-distance couples face many of the same problems as those in geographically close relationships. However, certain issues are unique to a long-distance relationship due to distance and extended periods apart. Unresolved problems can strain your relationship and turn it into a struggle instead of an enjoyable experience. In the absence of physical closeness, emotional connection becomes even more significant. With clear and effective communication, you can develop the necessary level of understanding and resolve long-distance relationship problems as soon as they arise.

In this article, we’ll give you an overview of the most common long-distance relationship problems. In each section, you will find a link to an in-depth article that explores that particular topic in much greater detail. Here, you’ll also find some ideas on how to fix these problems along with workbook suggestions if you are looking for a more hands-on approach.

Not Handling the Distance

In long-distance relationships, you have to deal with problems that come from being in a romantic relationship, and also the problems associated with geographical distance.

On the bright side, once you understand what is a long-distance relationship and how distance affects your relationship, you have a better chance to make it work.

A long-distance relationship is a romantic relationship where a couple is separated by geographical distance. As a result, you can not see your partner every day as you would in a regular relationship.

Distance affects the way you communicate and be intimate. As a result, many couples struggle to maintain a healthy long-distance relationship.

A long-distance relationship can be great to get to know someone online or maintaining an existing relationship for a few months.

Until you move in together, physical intimacy is only possible during your visits. That’s why a long-distance relationship that can be quite exciting and fulfilling for a short while, becomes increasingly harder to maintain for longer than a few months.

Feel free to learn more about how distance affects a romantic relationship in our in-depth article.

Handling the distance involves:

  • Maintain an emotional connection with effective communication.
  • Maintain physical intimacy with frequent visits.
  • Set specific goals and realistic expectations from the very beginning.

Trying to maintain a healthy long-distance relationship for a long time can be challenging.
If not handled properly, problems that come with the distance, can bring a lot of suffering and ruin a whole relationship.

Long-distance relationships can be hard to handle. If you treat them like a normal relationship, you are likely to run into many problems.

Unrealistic Expectations

Navigating long-distance relationships comes with its own set of realities. Understanding what to expect and what not to expect can help you approach the journey with a balanced perspective:

What to Expect:

  1. Communication challenges
  2. Personal growth
  3. Emotional rollercoaster
  4. Trust building
  5. Shared effort
  6. Honest communication

What Not to Expect:

  1. Constant Connection. While communication is vital, expecting constant availability can lead to unrealistic pressure and disappointment.
  2. Immediate Fixes. Challenges take time to resolve. Don’t anticipate instant solutions for every issue that arises.
  3. Perfection. No relationship is flawless. Expecting perfection sets an unrealistic standard that can lead to unnecessary frustration.
  4. Complete Independence. While personal space is crucial, expecting total independence might create emotional distance.
  5. Avoiding Conflicts. Conflicts are natural in any relationship. Long-distance ones are no exception. Expecting no disagreements is unrealistic.
  6. Physical intimacy.

Understanding these expectations can help you approach your long-distance relationship with a pragmatic mindset, fostering a healthier and more fulfilling connection despite the challenges that distance may bring.

To manage expectations try the following:

  1. Become aware of the false, unreasonable and unrealistic expectations.
  2. Recognise the reality of your situation.
  3. Set more realistic expectations.

Take a look at our in-depth article to learn more about managing expectations in a long-distance relationship.

Absence of Clear Boundaries

To build a healthy relationship and set healthy boundaries, both you and your partner should discuss your values and preferences. In other words, talk about what is really important for you to have and do a certain way and what can you be flexible about.

Being aware of your personal boundaries will help you develop an understanding of where you can respect each other boundaries. In doing so, you will create harmony and avoid unnecessary arguments.

Not Having Specific Goals

Many long-distance couples do not set specific goals for their relationship. Couples tend to have a vague idea of how they would like to be together and in some cases discuss their ambiguous future. Having specific goals is crucial for a successful long-distance relationship.

Start by setting the following goals:

Reflect on the reality of your situation. And, once you know your options and limitations, you can create more realistic goals, that will set your long-distance relationship in the right direction.

Since it is a challenging task for many long-distance couples, we have created a workbook that you can use to set specific goals for your personal life and your long-distance relationship step by step.

Once you have clear goals, it’s time to make a plan on how you will achieve them.

No Plan & No Timeline

When making a plan, remember to consider your personal life goals and ambitions. In a long-distance relationship, you have an opportunity to spend time on your personal development.

To maintain a healthy long-distance relationship, one of the items on your to-do list should be a plan for moving in together and a strategy to manage a lack of physical intimacy until then.

Having an end date for your long-distance relationship and frequent visits will help you maintain physical intimacy.

Every good plan has a timeline. If a goal is “What” you want to achieve and a plan is “How” you will achieve it, then the timeline essentially answers the “When” question (i.e. when will you achieve what you want). It helps to have mini achievements along the way towards a bigger goal.

Having a timeline in place will guide you through your long-distance relationship until the moment you can move in together. Without a clear plan and timeline, you’ll face numerous uncertainties that can add extra stress to your life.

Making a plan and having a timeline will set your long-distance relationship in the right direction. It will also provide much-needed reassurance in a time of great uncertainty.

If you don’t have a plan for your long-distance relationship or if it lasts a long time, a lack of physical intimacy can lead to sexual frustration. Growing frustration can result in anxiety and will gradually turn your whole relationship into a struggle.

Making a realistic and achievable plan proves to be quite a challenge for long-distance couples. Many find it extremely helpful to have some guidance and go through this plan-making process step-by-step. If you are one of them, consider our workbook. It’s a small investment for all the peace of mind and practical insights that can make a significant difference in your long-distance relationship journey.

Communication Problems

Effective communication lies at the heart of every successful long-distance relationship. Without physical contact, online communication through phone calls and video calls is the only way for long-distance couples to stay emotionally connected.

Many long-distance couples face the same problems and those who find the balance can make their long-distance relationship work the best it can. If you don’t talk enough, you can start drifting apart, and with time your feelings may fade away. If you talk too much, it may lead to boring conversations. In an attempt to stay connected, partners end up spending a lot of time on the phone, even when they have nothing to say.

Most common communication problems

The most effective way to handle long-distance relationship problems is by having open, honest, and clear communication. Effective communication can help you maintain emotional intimacy and resolve most of the issues you might face.

How to fix communication problems

  1. Talk to your partner about your concerns.
  2. Take time to hear their point of view.
  3. Listen to their feelings.
  4. During a face-to-face encounter, observe their body language.
  5. Tell them back what you heard them say.
  6. Ask follow-up questions.
  7. Build on this understanding.

Tips to develop effective communication:

  • Communicate regularly
  • Use phone calls for more casual conversations.
  • Take into account the time difference if you live in different time zones.
  • Freely express your thoughts, feelings, doubts and concerns to maintain an emotional connection.
  • Make it a rule to have honest communication, no matter what.
  • Learn about body language and facial expressions to make the most of your interactions during video calls.
  • Make every video call special by going beyond casual conversations.
  • Spice things up with intimate conversations and virtual sex.
  • Keep text messages and phone calls for more casual conversations.
  • If you want to discuss something meaningful with your partner, it’s best to do so face-to-face or via video calls.
  • Express yourself clearly to avoid misunderstanding and confusion.
  • Don’t talk constantly about the same things.
  • If you feel sad, say so, and tell them why you feel that way.

Many long-distance relationships fail because of bad communication. Poor communication can lead to confusion, unnecessary arguments, unresolved conflicts and strained relationship, most of which can be avoided.

Signs of bad communication

  • Misunderstandings
  • Assumptions
  • Lack of active listening
  • Ignoring emotions
  • Negative tone
  • Avoidance of difficult topics
  • One-sided conversations
  • Repetitive arguments
  • Excessive silence
  • Inconsistent messages
  • Digital dependence
  • Defensiveness

Online communication means the only way you can express yourself is through words. The primary means of communication in a long-distance relationship are text messages, phone calls and video calls. This is in contrast to geographically close relationships, where you can express yourself through physical touch, which allows you to convey your emotions more effectively than in extended conversations.

Check out our in-depth article to learn all there’s to know about communication in a long-distance relationship.

Key Takeaways

  • A balance between the frequency and quality of your interactions is key to having a healthy relationship.
  • Effective communication allows to build trust and intimacy.
  • When you communicate via online means, misunderstandings are easy to create and hard to fix.
  • When you feel comfortable talking about any topic, you can discuss any issues, and find a way to fix them.
  • Most long-distance relationship problems can be fixed with transparent, open, and honest communication.
  • If your partner wants to talk constantly, suggest ending your call and doing something more interesting or productive. It’ll help you avoid excessive communication.
  • Effective communication is how you build and maintain emotional closeness when you are away from your partner.
  • The success of your long-distance relationship greatly depends on your ability to share your feelings, listen to each other and resolve problems.
  • Syncing your schedules with the time difference can be challenging. So, if you live in different time zones, the time difference can get in the way of your effort to communicate regularly.
  • Establishing a regular schedule for phone calls, video calls and messages can bring a sense of predictability to your interactions.
  • Occasionally, the only time you can video call may not align with your partner’s availability. It’s okay. Be understanding of your partner’s point of view and adapt when plans change, showing your partner that you’re flexible and supportive.
  • Tools like dual time zone apps or world clocks allow you effortlessly coordinate your communication over different time zones.
  • Create a shared calendar and identify the slots where you can spend time together talking, playing games or enjoying virtual sex.

Intimacy Issues

A complete romantic relationship involves physical intimacy. Without physical contact, you are missing out on a huge part of the reason why you have a romantic partner in the first place.

In a regular relationship, when you live with your romantic partner, you see each other every day and physical intimacy is part of your daily sex life. However, distance makes physical intimacy non-existent. The only time you can be physically close to your partner is during your visits.

Many couples do not have the luxury of visiting each other regularly. And, after some time, the lack of physical intimacy can manifest as sexual frustration. Sexual frustration can affect other aspects of your life, leaving you frustrated about various things most of the time. Sexual frustration can impact your whole relationship and your well-being.

As a result, you may begin to feel increasingly distant and after a while may start drifting apart. Frequent visits are essential to maintain physical intimacy. And staying emotionally connected in between your visits is crucial if you want to make your long-distance relationship work.

Here are common intimacy issues for long-distance couples:

While distance makes your relationship a touch more complicated, extra time and space give you a chance to do something exciting with your own life. You can then share this excitement with your partner.

Too much space, however, may lead to emotional distance. The difficulty arises when one partner wants more time to spend together, while the other partner needs time to focus on their own life, family and friends.

Spicing up your long-distance relationship can give you a sense of physical connection. Having something you can touch that you associate with your partner can give you a sense of closeness during times when you feel alone.

Tips and ideas to maintain intimacy in a long-distance relationship:

  • Discuss deep and meaningful topics
  • Have dirty talks with each other via sexting
  • Play naughty games online
  • Enjoy virtual sex
  • Have virtual dates
  • Send gifts and care packages.

If you do not have the means to visit each other as much as you would like, you rely on emotional connection to maintain your relationship. But it is only healthy for a short while.

Just remember that nothing can replace the physical touch of a romantic partner.

Here is a workbook to help you address intimacy issues and build a more intimate long-distance relationship.

Trust Issues

Trust is a foundation for any healthy relationship. In a regular romantic relationship, partners see each other every day and feel each other’s demeanour and presence. In contrast, long-distance partners don’t get to see each other face-to-face and can’t feel each other’s presence.

Without tactile feedback, the only way emotions and feelings can be shared is through words. This is where effective communication can help to keep your long-distance relationship alive.

Without physical intimacy, you can expect to be sexually frustrated. And, when you combine sexual frustration with the lack of physical connection and potentially poor communication, it becomes hard to keep your long-distance relationship healthy.

Personal insecurities mixed with inherent uncertainties of a long-distance relationship lead to jealousy.

Trust issues in a long-distance relationship and sexual unfulfillment may lead to cheating.

You can address jealousy and cheating by building trust through open and honest communication.

Use our workbook to fix trust issues in your long-distance relationship before they negatively impact and ruin your romantic relationship.

Losing Interest & Drifting Apart

In a long-distance relationship, geographical distance can sometimes lead to emotional distance as well. The initial excitement and passion might slowly give way to feelings of uncertainty and detachment.

Losing interest is a concern that both partners should be aware of and address. The absence of daily physical connection can lead to a decrease in the novelty factor, potentially affecting the emotional connection. Maintaining physical intimacy in a long-distance relationship requires ongoing effort and dedication.

Drifting apart can occur gradually, often as a result of evolving separate lives. As both partners have routines, form new friendships, and pursue individual goals, there’s a possibility of growing in different directions. To keep your relationship alive, work on improving your communication and engage in fun activities to bring some excitement into your lives.

Open conversations about changing interests, plans, and aspirations can help prevent this emotional drift and ensure that you remain aligned on your journey together.

Here are some tips and ideas to prevent your long-distance relationship from getting boring:

  1. Keep communication fresh
  2. Surprise with thoughtfulness
  3. Engage in shared activities
  4. Plan virtual date nights
  5. Play video games
  6. Play naughty games online
  7. Delve into meaningful topics
  8. Spontaneous visits
  9. Joint goal setting
  10. Harness digital tools
  11. Learn and grow together
  12. Cultivate personal interests
  13. Diverse conversations
  14. Share daily moments

Personal Issues

We’re all human, and that means facing personal challenges along the way, even in a long-distance relationship. Here’s a glimpse into some of these challenges:

  • Fears, Uncertainty, and Doubts
    Distance brings a lot of uncertainty into a relationship, leaving you with doubts about how things will unfold. It’s okay to share these worries with your partner. They might be feeling the same way, and discussing your fears can bring you closer.
  • Insecurity
    The distance can sometimes make you feel a bit unsure about where you stand. Remember, open communication is key. Sharing your feelings of insecurity can help your partner understand your emotions better and reassure you.
  • Stress and Anxiety
    Life’s stressors can pile up, and distance might amplify them. Talk to your partner about your worries. They might offer a different perspective or suggest ways to manage stress together.
  • Depression
    There might be moments when the distance intensifies feelings of sadness. Don’t be afraid to reach out for professional help if needed. Sharing your emotions with your partner can also provide much-needed support.
  • Negative Feelings
    Feeling down or frustrated is normal, especially when dealing with distance. Instead of bottling up these feelings, discuss them with your partner. Together, you might find ways to turn things around.
  • Feeling Sad, Lonely, and Disconnected
    There’ll be times when the miles between you seem endless. Let your partner know when you feel sad or alone. And, together, you can brainstorm ways to bridge the emotional gap and maintain an emotional connection.

Personal issues have a great deal of influence on your long-distance relationship. You can ask your partner to help you deal with your personal issues, as long as you remember the limitation of how much they can do and say from a distance.

Remember, everyone goes through rough patches. Being open about your personal challenges not only deepens your bond but also gives you both a chance to support each other through life’s ups and downs.

That said, it is up to each person to sort out their individual issues. Share your personal issues with your partner, but don’t expect them to solve these issues for you.

Staying in a Toxic Long-Distance Relationship

Staying in a toxic long-distance relationship can be detrimental to your emotional well-being and personal growth. Here’re the reasons you should consider ending your existing relationship:

  • Toxic relationships can drain your emotional energy, leaving you feeling exhausted and mentally strained.
  • Toxic relationships can stunt personal growth and development. Instead of nurturing your aspirations and pursuits, you might find yourself trapped in a cycle of conflict, negativity, and emotional distress.
  • Prolonged exposure to toxicity can lead to anxiety, depression, and decreased self-esteem. Being physically apart doesn’t exempt you from the emotional toll of a toxic dynamic.
  • In a toxic relationship, effective communication becomes nearly impossible. The physical distance can magnify communication problems, hindering any chance of resolving conflicts or addressing concerns.
  • Physical distance can make it even harder to rebuild trust, leading to a cycle of suspicion and insecurity.
  • While investing time and energy in a toxic relationship, you might be missing out on opportunities to connect with positive influences, build new friendships, and explore personal interests.
  • Being in a toxic long-distance relationship can make you feel isolated emotionally. The lack of physical connection makes it challenging to seek solace or emotional support from your partner.
  • The hope that things might change can keep you trapped in a toxic dynamic. The distance might create an illusion that things will improve once you’re physically together, but change often requires joint effort and willingness.

Recognising the signs of toxicity and taking steps to free yourself from a damaging relationship, regardless of the distance, is crucial for your well-being. While the decision might be difficult, prioritising your own happiness and growth is essential in the journey towards healthier relationships and fulfilling life.

Long-distance relationships become unhealthy when a partner doesn’t resolve their problems. While issues can be ignored for a short while, over time, unresolved problems lead to a toxic relationship. Take a look at our article to learn how to break free from a toxic long-distance relationship.

If you feel that your long-distance relationship is becoming too much, and you can’t handle it any more, consider the following:

  • Take some time apart.
  • Tell your long-distance partner that you would like a week apart to get in touch with yourself and your feelings.
  • Reflect on your relationship.
  • Rediscover what you want from your partner and from this long-distance relationship.
  • Encourage your partner to reflect as well.
  • Share your discoveries.
  • Tell your partner why you feel a certain way.
  • Share with your partner what you think is not working.
  • Choose your next steps together, instead of giving them an ultimatum.

After a week apart you may find that you can see things more clearly and have solutions for your problems. You may also find that your long-distance relationship is not working for you and you may want to end it.

Before you try to fix your long-distance relationship, ask yourself if it’s worth it. Sometimes, a long-distance relationship does not work, and it’s time to let it go.

Many long-distance couples tend to struggle in their relationship feeling powerless in the face of circumstances. While some challenges are expected, staying in a toxic relationship without resolution can negatively impact a partner’s life and well-being.

Not Getting Professional Help

Problems are part of life and are completely normal for a long-distance relationship. It is failure to address these problems effectively in a timely manner that leads to a broken relationship.

However, some problems can be beyond the partner’s capacity to work them out.

As long as you have understanding and willingness to hear each other, you can find a solution that works for both of you.

However, sometimes overwhelming emotions can make it extremely difficult to look at your situation objectively. So, in an effort to address issues, you may end up with more problems.

Professional input can go a long way. Be it communication problems or sex and intimacy issues, we are here to help. So, if you have a burning issue you would like to discuss, book a coaching session or check out our coaching options.
