Long distance can be achingly difficult, no matter how long you’ve been together or how far you are from each other. No matter if you’ve been separated by land after years of being together, or if you met online and have never even seen them in person, if that person is your entire world it can totally be worth it. Sometimes sending simple gifts is an easy way of showing how much you love your long distance partner, so here is a short list of a few gifts that will remind them how much you care!
- Letters
Sometimes a good old fashioned letter is the best gift! It’s a nice surprise and the words come from you. Spray the letter with the perfume you wear so your S/O smells you when they read your letter!

- T-shirt
Send your favorite shirt for your S/O to wear or to just keep close to them, and if it smells like you that’s even better.
- Promise Ring
If your relationship is serious enough for you to consider spending the rest of your life together, get each other promise rings to show your commitment.
- “Open When” Letters
Open when…you’re happy, you’re sad, you’re sick, you’re annoyed/mad at me, you’re having a bad day, you’ve accomplishes a goal, you need a hug, you miss me…the list goes on and on. Add small surprises too like confetti for when it’s their birthday.
