When bae is away, our inner romantic comes out to play. Here are a couple of Valentine’s Day ideas for long-distance couples.
Long-distance relationships are difficult, but does your Valentine’s Day have to suck? Not on our watch.
Here are a couple of pointers and Valentine’s Day ideas to ensure that your remote Valentine is feeling the love.
1. Send Them a DoorDash
Girlfriend abroad for the semester? This is one forget-me-not that sends a message. Sven from the next hostel over won’t stand a chance.
This is one power move that we can recommend for pretty much anyone. Toss in a bouquet and maybe a box of chocolate for an extra kick of romance.
2. Make Their Home Smarter
If your significant other isn’t one for the frivolity of flowers and other overly-sentimental gifts, try giving them something practical. A smart home assistant or appliance will stand in for you as a constant reminder of your devotion.
Robot vacuums are very cute, very useful, and pretty affordable. If your partner loves to cook, you may also consider any of a number of smart kitchen gadgets or premium apps.
3. Throw a Virtual Movie or Game Night
Whether you flip on your all-time favorite, something brand new, or even just that show on Netflix that you’ve both been meaning to binge, this is one awesome way to spend a low-key evening with your favorite person. The same goes for gaming; whatever floats both of your proverbial boats.
Kast is one popular app for simultaneous watching from any two places in the entire world; it’s even got picture-in-picture if you invest in the premium version. You can indulge together from any device—tablet, TV, or even just your laptop or smartphone.
4. Send Them a Playlist
Do we even need to mention this one? It’s classic, heartfelt, and adorable. If you’re long-distance, take this opportunity to create something with a lot of thought behind it.
Once you’ve finalized your masterpiece, you might also need to set the stage for a great listen. If their set-up is lacking, a new premium soundbar is one perfectly discreet gift that requires little hassle to get up and running.
Valentine’s Day Ideas That Bring You Closer Together

Make this Valentine’s Day one to remember with these simple Valentine ideas for long distance couples. They’re the most romantic way to show them that you care, short of simply showing up on their front doorstep by surprise.
