Love is in the air. It’s almost Cupid’s favourite holiday, and spending it apart from the one you love can sting.

Valentine's chocolates

1. A Romantic Dinner
Going out to eat can be a little overrated! It can cost a pretty penny to paint the town red, and no one wants to solo.

If you can’t be together on Valentine’s Day, why not treat the one you love to a special meal, anyway? Many specialty stores take care of shipping fresh goods for you, eliminating your need to stand in line at the post office.

2. A Bottle of Wine
Do you and your beau like popping a bottle of your favourite vintage together? Why not still do so across the miles?

Send them a bottle of one of your top Valentine’s Day wine picks, selecting one for yourself at the same time. Meet via the magic of technology and virtually toast your love over Google Meet or Facetime.

3. Long-Distance Touch Photo Frames

You probably keep a photo of your beloved by your bedside. How often do you caress it while you think of them, wishing they were by your side?

Let them know you’re thinking about them without saying a word. These long-distance touch photo frames light up when one person touches them, letting the other partner know they’re loved.

4. A Questions for Lovers Book
Chances are, you spend hours on the phone or Facetime with your long-distance love. Why not liven up your conversations?

Get them the gift of 469 questions that can breathe a new spark into your love life. You’ll discover more about each other across the miles than you ever could watching TV in silence together.

5. A Weighted Blanket
One of the best parts of being half of a committed whole is having someone’s arms wrap around you at the end of a long day. However, you could feel barren and empty if they’re stationed on the other side of the globe.

A weighted blanket feels like a comforting hug from the one you love. If you close your eyes, you can almost imagine them rocking you gently to sleep. Get one for each of you to curl up under when your hunger for physical touch becomes too much.

6. A Pajama and Robe Set
Few things are better than curling up for a lazy binge-watching afternoon with the one you love. You can still enjoy it together via the magic of technology.

You can make this special time even cozier with the right pyjama and robe set. Look for sensual, sumptuous fabrics like silk, satin and velvet.

7. An Indulgent Bath Set
One of the best parts of getting ready for date night is relaxing in a luxurious bubble bath beforehand. You don’t have to go out alone and trip the lights fantastic to enjoy the pregame festivities.

Delight your long-distance love with an indulgent bath set so they can sink into relaxation at the end of the day. Look for one specialized for their skin type. For example, the sodium lauryl sulfate in many bubble baths can aggravate dry skin, but bath oil beads leave them silky when they emerge.

8. Personalized Jewelry
Jewellery is a traditional token of love. Why not surprise your long-distance love with a set of relationship bracelets — you each get one. It’s the perfect way to highlight your union if you aren’t quite at the engagement ring stage yet.

Another idea is a monogrammed watch. You can even include a personalized message on the back of the timepiece.

9. A Handwritten Letter and Scrapbook
What if your wallet is a bit threadbare this Valentine’s Day? You can still delight your long-distance love with a homemade token of your affection.

Bring back the old-fashioned art of writing love letters. You can also craft a scrapbook full of photos of shared adventures and perhaps ideas for future holidays you can take together.

Love Across the Miles
Spending Valentine’s Day away from the one you love isn’t much fun. However, you can make each other feel closer by sharing a token of your affection across the miles. Delight your long-distance partner with one of these nine romantic Valentine’s Day gifts.
