Five Long-Distance Hook-up Tips

Distance can kill a relationship—if you let it. The alternative is finding ways to maintain the spark, despite the hundreds or even thousands of miles that make hook-up a special occasion kind of thing. Our No. One peak: embrace technology. For tips on how to do this with tact, we talked to Nick Savoy, president of Love Systems, who clued us in on how to turn a smartphone into the ultimate contraption for keeping an LDR alive.

The once-a-day check-in is excellent and all, but let’s face it: We have our needs, too. So, spice up your talk with some dirty talk. Very first, get convenient—nobody can have fine phone hook-up while pacing around the living room. Then, choose scripts that you can both visualize.

"Talking on the phone is superb because you can hear her reactions, tone, and bellows," Savoy says. "And neither of you needs to be using your forearms to type."

Skype Hook-up

“Skype can be a superb way to showcase her you miss her figure as well as her face—and women want to be valued for both,” Savoy notes. So, when things get steamy over Skype, ask her to dress the part. (There’s nothing wrong with a little over-the-screen role play.) In exchange, display a few valuable items while you have the chance.

Textual Intercourse

Let the conversation unfold naturally, and don’t attempt too hard to come up with something supersexy to say. Your fucking partner loves you for who you are and expects your quirkiness to reflect in your messages—even the dirty ones. "You want to remind her that you’re not just another text message, and that there’s a man behind each message that she’s connected to," Savoy says.

When things get hot and strong via text, suggest switching to the phone.

E-Male

“If you’re going to use e-mail, then take advantage of the one benefit it does have: Instead of, say, one hundred sixty eight characters in a text, you have as much space as you want," Savoy notes. "Women like the buildup, the sexual strain, the escalation, the temptation, etc., so give it to her. Don’t worry, you don’t have to channel Shakespeare or Cyrano de Bergerac, just describe a night with her, take your time each step of the way, and leave room to tell her how the different things you’re imagining make you feel."

Picture This

"If you’re going to send her sexy pictures, don’t just snap and send," warns Savoy. "Take a million pictures and choose the best. Also, be more creative than just standing in front of a bathroom mirror. Display her how turned on you are by her, not just with your figure, but with your eyes and face as well."
