Hello again, my dear readers! Hope you enjoy reading my blogs and find the info useful, I am always happy getting feedbacks from you! Today I would love to discuss one urgent topic – Is it possible to date and find your love during the pandemic? Since the Covid-19 started, most parts of our lives had been impacted, including our interpersonal relationships. For instance, those of us who've just started dating someone new, are now experiencing a particularly tricky scenario and most lose hope and prefer to stop communication…
To my mind, dating during the COVID-19 pandemic is perfectly OK (there are even some benefits), but the inability to see each other face-to-face comes with inherent challenges. While tricky, dating remotely at this time is certainly feasible. Below we’ve outlined specific, actionable ways you can stay better connected and continue fostering your budding relationship.
The most important piece of advice when it comes to staying close and connected with your partner is giving them your undivided attention when you’re together (even if you’re physically apart).
Social distancing doesn’t have to translate into emotional distancing. Whether your relationship is brand new or you’ve been dating a few months, consider this an opportune time to get emotionally closer to your partner. Simply communicating regularly and continuing to feel out your connection is a great place to start.
Shared experiences bring us together and give us something to talk about. For example, while social distancing you could both choose a book to read at the same time and then set times to discuss it. Not only will it personally relieve stress for each of you and serve as a break from the news cycle, but it’ll promote a deeper connection.
Other ideas might include crafting individually and showing off your end results or having a cook or bake-off. The idea is that you’re doing something similar that will allow you to bond even though you’re physically apart. Working out together also can be great motivation!
There are a lot of different ways to keep the interest and spark alive and then, when we can get back to normal life, you can meet face to face and already have very deep and intimate connection!
Do you know your ways to keep connected? It will be very useful for me, if you share them!
Thanks for reading and have a great day! Ekaterina
