Long-distance relationships can be hard to maintain over long periods of time apart. If you’re away from each other for weeks or months on end you need to make your love realize you’re thinking about them.

What can be a better way to do this then by sending cute and romantic gifts and messages, that show her how special you are, and how much you think of her. 

Do some research and find out what he or she likes. If you know your beloved very well then this shouldn’t be a problem. However, if you’re in the early stages of a romance then you will need to a little bit of digging.

1.) What movies does your love like? Choose one or two from Amazon and have them mailed out. Buy a ticket online to the cinema or theatre and go and see the film as well. You can talk about it after you’ve both seen it.

2.) You don’t have to wait for Valentine’s day to send flowers. A bouquet of red roses and gift basket with her favorite chocolates and cookies will surprise and delight her.

4.) Embroider a heart on a pillowcase and spray it with your favorite cologne or scent. If you don’t know how to embroider, look it up online, it’s very easy, you could make or buy a template for the outline of the heart. You could also add your beloved’s and your initials next to the heart. Don’t worry if it’s not perfect.

5.) Make some homemade sweets or cookies and send them to your love. You could even use heart shaped cookie cutters and pipe their initials with icing. Some countries have strict regulations on importing food so check first. You may be required to fill out a form.
