How to Get Over a Fight in a Long Distance Relationship

By Tony Andrews


There's nothing you can do to stop it. When two separate people with a slight difference in views are placed together, there is sure to be a few disagreements. But don't stress because it's perfectly natural to have arguments with your companion as long as it isn't too often. That's why I've laid out a couple of tips below to bear in mind when you are arguing, and the actions to take after arguing in a distance relationship.

During The Argument

Pick Your Words With Care

Some people end up saying some terrible things when in a heavy argument. We understand that you might be mad at each other. And it may totally be their fault. And you may be a total angel too. But remember to choose your words thoughtfully. Take in some long deep breaths and think it over before you say anything. This can help to shield your significant others feelings and is sure to speed up the making up process.

Use Limited Contact Until Your Tensions Have Levelled Out

It's no good talking to them while you are still upset with them. The best idea is to end all communication until you both have cooled down and are ready to make up with each other. No text messages. No phone calls. No Skype.

After The Argument

It's Not About Who's To Blame

It's not about who's to blame for the argument. It's about the cause of the disagreement. If you disagree about something that they don't really like about you, then maybe it's time to change that something they don't like. A lot of people have an, "I can't change for anybody" attitude in a relationship. Take it from us, the ones that can and do change are the ones that have a stronger relationship with one another.

Remember You Are Both On The Same Side

If you're going to improve as a couple then you're going to have to learn how to make important decisions together. These decisions will shape your future. If you love each other, and are both active in the relationship, then you will both want to work towards the same positive end result. Never forget that you are each on the same side.

Send An Apology Letter

A nice gesture after you have made up is to send your sweetheart a letter saying that you are sorry about hurting their feelings. Be sure to let your views about the issue known, but remember to let your significant other know that you don't want to argue anymore. Maybe send a photo of you both to help remind them of the joyful times you've shared, along with a small gift.
