Newsweek asked dating and relationship experts how couples who live apart can ride out the pandemic successfully.
advise that in order to protect themselves, people should maintain at least a 1 meter distance between anyone who is coughing or sneezing. This is known as social distancing. This is because when someone coughs or sneezes they spray small liquid droplets from their nose or mouth, which may contain the virus. If too close, people can breathe in the droplets, including the COVID-19 virus if the person coughing has the disease.
Other ways for couples to do this include Netflix Party, which is available on desktops and Google Chrome, Zoom, and Discord.Dating expert and writer Andy Jones empathizes with couples going through separation. Jones also believes that while many consider romance to be spontaneous, couples need to get organized with their romance if they're apart."This sounds unsexy, but —for long-distance couples — it's good to be organized when it comes to romance."Sex would naturally be spontaneous and romantic at home, but, now you're apart, it's all off.
Burke also suggested talking to your partner about how you are feeling and offering support in return. Self-isolation might also help couples feeling the anxiety associated with COVID-19 and any negative emotions associated with not seeing their partner. Wash hands after coughing or sneezing; when caring for the sick; before, during and after food preparation; before eating; after using the toilet; when hands are visibly dirty; and after handling animals or waste.Avoid touching your hands, nose and mouth. Do not spit in public.
