Love from a distance

You’re a trucker. You love the road. But you also love your spouse.

Fortunately, those two loves don’t have to be mutually exclusive. What you need is love from a distance.

Next time you’re wondering how to make that special someone at home feel, well, like a special someone, remember these handy tips:

1. Send surprise flowers or other gifts to your home while you’re away.
2. Use email to answer a list of questions back and forth.
3. Put technology to work. There are a number of ways to stay in touch, including Skype, apps, games, e-cards and virtual hugs.
4. Take and send random pictures of places you visit or send loving video messages.
5. Simply call to say, “I love you.”

Although you might be surprised to learn absence really does make the heart grow fonder, you should still make sure you’re connecting with your loved one while you’re away.

Don’t let the road get in the way of you and your partner. Take time to connect and turn long distance into love distance!
