Long distance relationships can be very tough on every relationship, especially on the physical intimacy side. Although sex is noteverything, it is something that most of us crave. We have curated our favourite ways we like to keep the passion alive in an LDR.

We would like to personally thank whoever invented the technology allowing us to see our partners. Nude and all. There are no excuses to let your sex life suffer even when apart (thanks to our phones).

An LDR doesn't always have to be a negative when it comes to your sex life. It can be a new way to experiment with your partner. Talk about sexual things you wouldn't usually do (or have the confidence to face to face). Use this time apart to tease each other more and build excitement for when you both reunite.

We have put together 7 tips (excuse the pun) for you to experiment with your partner. Remember, these are only our suggestions, use them as inspiration to get as creative as possible. Sexless LDR are staying in the past.

FACETIME

Use this as a way of not just hearing your partner's voice but being able to see them too. To initiate the conversation, you could start slowly taking your clothes off to get your partner in the mood. Use this as a time to self-pleasure together. Just because you aren't in the same room doesn't mean you still can't watch each other orgasm. It's almost as though you are there yourself. Watch how they like to pleasure themselves so you can reenact it.

PHONE SEX

A classic, If it's not broken, why fix it?

This is especially great if you don't feel as confident being on facetime. Still just as sexy. Hearing the sound of your partners' voice and what they want to do to you can be such a massive turn-on and will build stimulation as they imagine how you look whilst moaning their name down the phone.

SEND NUDES

Send it when they least expect it, leaving their imagination running wild.

USE TOYS

Long-distance vibrators are a thing. Who even needs their partners to be in the same room these days to make them orgasm?! Not you. Let your partner control the sex toy from a distance by using their phone or remote. Meaning there is always still a way of them having complete control of making you orgasm. How hot. Make it fun trying new toys, such as; remote control eggs that fit in your underwear. The chair vibrates during your work meeting. What's more risque than that?

LEAVE YOUR SCENT

Next time you visit them, spray some of your perfume on their pillow, then when he is talking to you over the phone, he can smell you as he orgasms. Make it feel like reality. You could even leave some of your underwear hidden as a surprise.

SEXT

Be descriptive. Don't hold back.

PORN

Your most watched adult films, share it. Watch them together over facetime to start building up that fantasy & talk about reenacting it. A great way to see if there is something you are both into which hasn't been mentioned before. Don't be shy. This could transform your sex life.

We hope these tips encourage things to get steamy. Always only do what you feel comfortable with, and most importantly, have fun!
