I read that the authors are considering updating the book - great idea Please consider including non-hetero relationships in the discussion, and bringing tech discussions up to date.
The section on sexual intimacy was pretty judgey, maybe work on the inherent biases before you offer advice to others on this important aspect of LDRs.
Another topic that received almost no airtime is how to handle the views o This is a good and much needed book. Another topic that received almost no airtime is how to handle the views of family and friends - they aren't always supportive and this may create added tension.

Give advice at what to do to keep things going. It was nice but it didn't apply to my long distance relationship currently.

I was hoping for some more inspiration or motivation through the lonely times of this, but it hit on ways to keep relationships positive for people in different US cities. It is good book but not what I was hoping for. Feb 16, Roxanne rated it really liked it Recommended to Roxanne by: Fritz.
Shelves: nonfiction , self-help. This book is exactly what the title says. Fritz bought it for me several months ago; he has a copy also, and we've been working our way through it a chapter at a time and talking about the different strategies and issues.
Definitely a valuable read, although most of the discussions it sparked consisted of "Yeah, we do that. Yeah, we do that too.
Yeah, we're good at that So it was good for the affirmation, and we also got at least a few ideas we might not have come up with on our own. Jun 10, Jessica rated it really liked it.
I am currentlyin a long-distance relationship and have faced several communication issues along the way. This book has provided strategies and ideas that have been helpful for me in learning to face these challenges with greater confidence. While I have not yet finished the book, I know it will be a valuable asset as my long-distance relationship continues.
A bit outdated, worrying about calling plans and mentioning you might want to consider buying a mobile phone. No real mention of texting or video chatting. It focuses heavily on anecdotes of other couples, some who live less than miles apart which I find laughable to call long distance. Still, it has some good recommendations and food for thought.
