How To Spice Up a Long-Distance Relationship Sexually

It’s no secret that long-distance relationships are hard work. Physical distance and long dry spells aren’t exactly ideal, but it’s possible for a healthy relationship to thrive even when you’re miles away from your partner.

There are even some practical ways to upgrade your partner play. Here’s how to spice up a long-distance relationship sexually so you don’t have to say goodbye to all the fun stuff that comes with an in-person relationship.

Get Kinky with Mutual Masturbation

Sex is a normal (and healthy!) part of any relationship. And when you take that out of the equation, it can take a toll. The good news? Just because you’re not physically with someone doesn’t mean you can’t both get off.

That’s where mutual masturbation can take your LDR to the next level. It’s one of the best long-distance relationship activities to build intimacy with your partner. Think about it: you masturbate. Your partner masturbates. And when you put them together, that can be crazy hot, too.

It might feel a little awkward at first, but mutual masturbation can make your next FaceTime or Zoom session extra kinky. Try treating your video calls like dates—get dressed up, top it off with some sexy lingerie, and get down and dirty…virtually.

If you really want to spice up your Zoom calls, let your favorite vibrator do the work. Your next mutual masturbation sesh is the perfect opportunity to show your partner how you get yourself off—whether that’s teasing yourself with gentle vibrations or turning your vibrator up to the highest setting. Either way, it’s the ideal moment to show your partner exactly what gets you off.

Unleash Your Dirtiest Fantasies with Sexting

It doesn’t matter who you are, what gets you off, or what your kinks are: sexting is one of the hottest ways to connect with your partner. Even if you’re newly dating long-distance, sexy texts can help you explore fantasies and kinks in a safe space.

Just like mutual masturbation, sexting can feel a little weird at first. Especially if you’re a first-time sexter, finding dirty things to say to your long-distance girlfriend (or boyfriend) might feel cringe-worthy…but it doesn’t have to be.

Before you start snapping nudes or sending WAP-worthy texts, make sure your partner is on board. And remember: just like any type of sex IRL, you can change your mind about sexting at any time, even if you’ve already given your consent.

Need some sexting ideas for long-distance relationships? Don’t be afraid to get creative. Some light flirting can clue you in to whether or not they’re open to the idea, so start with something simple, like “I can’t stop thinking about you.” From there, you might mention what you’d do if they were there right now—or unleash your dirtiest fantasies for their next visit.

Tease Your LDR Partner with Sexy Surprises

Because everyone loves getting fun mail (read: surprise gifts, not bills). Sending a naughty Polaroid in the mail is a sexy way to show your partner that you’re thinking of them. But if sending non-digital nudes isn’t your thing, you can always surprise your partner with a sex toy.

Let’s face it: no matter how kinky your Zoom calls get or how hot your partner’s nudes are, there’s always a tiny bit of disconnect during an LDR. With a dual-action vibrator, you can both indulge in seriously good sensations—even if you’re miles apart.

Don’t Forget About Self-Pleasure

When you live miles apart, it’s easy to get sexually frustrated when you’re horny and infrequently in (physical) touch with your partner. So, even if you’re sexting every day and hopping on FaceTime every night, take the time to treat yourself to some self-care.

Masturbation allows you to connect with your body, tap into your desires, and find out what gets you off. The best part? Self-pleasure is amazing for your health. It can help you sleep better, manage stress, and boost your mood.

And if you’re feeling guilty about your solo time, don’t worry—it’s good for your partner, too. The next time you see your partner, you’ll be all over them. Plus, you’ll have the confidence to show them exactly what makes you tick. Win-win!
