爱情打败距离：5招教你异地恋应该这样走下去

You don’t have to be in the same zip code to have fun together. Every Sunday night at 11, my boyfriend and I have a standing date to talk about the latest episode of Breaking Bad. Your “thing” doesn’t have to be a TV series you’re addicted to -- maybe it’s watching a weekly movie together, or playing Words with Friends -- but make sure you have something to talk about that doesn’t involve the words “I miss you.” It’ll make your phone calls a lot more pleasant.
你们不一定非得在同一个地区才能一起玩。每周六晚11点，我和男朋友会有一次固定的约会，一起聊聊《绝命毒师》的最新剧情。当然你们的‘话题’不一定非得是你们热衷的电视剧，可以是在网上一起观看每周影院，或者是大家一起玩填字游戏，要知道的除了“我想你”这些甜言蜜语外，你们有其他的事情可以谈论，这些事情会让你们的电话聊天更愉快。

No.4 Plan At Least One Visit In Advance
第四招：至少提前安排一次会面

Maybe you’re a spontaneous kind of guy. Don’t be when you’re booking travel. Things go much more smoothly if you have a trip or two in the books ahead of time. Your wallet will thank you -- and so will your girlfriend. Saying goodbye at the end of a visit is a lot easier when you already have another to look forward to.
也许你是一个很随意的人，但在计划旅行的时候就千万要谨慎啦。如果你能提前安排一到两次旅行的话，事情会更顺畅。你的钱包也会感激你的，当然还有你的女朋友。如果你们已经计划好令人期待的下一次会面时，那么在这段旅途结束时说再见就会容易得多了。

No.5 Say What's On Your Mind
第五招：说出你心中的想法

Girlfriends can tell when something’s bothering you. And when you don’t explain what it is -- no matter how dumb you might think it sounds -- we assume we’re the something that’s bringing you down. A girlfriend who’s worried that you might dump her isn’t a great person to be in a relationship with. So just tell her that you missed the game-winning shot at your pickup basketball game already and put it behind you.
女朋友通常都能感觉到有事情烦扰着你，不论你多么的不想说话，如果你不去解释，我们就会以为是我们让你感到厌烦。作为女朋友会猜疑，担心你是不是要跟她分手。所以你要直接的告诉她，你是因为在之前的篮球赛错失了制胜球而心情烦闷。
