Bf and I have a very physically close relationship. Terrified of long distance.
Hi everyone, we are 22F and 25M
My boyfriend and I have a very physically intimate relationship. For me, sex is one of the biggest ways I feel connected to him. I love him so much, and honestly, he feels like my person. But soon I’ll be moving to a different state for work, and the thought of being away from him is genuinely killing me a little. I’m scared that without the physical closeness and sex, we might start feeling distant from each other. Sex. is not the only way we get along with each other. We have a lot in common, we can talk about random nonsense for hours, we understand each other deeply, and I genuinely feel emotionally safe with him. But physical intimacy is a huge part of how I express love and feel loved, so I’m worried about how the distance will affect us.
For people who have been in long-distance relationships, how did you maintain intimacy when you couldn’t be physically close?l really appreciate any advice, especially from couples who were very physically affectionate before going long-distance
