Sadly my family and I just moved to New Orleans. Just wondering what is the best way to keep a long-distance relationship alive; phone, Facebook,Skype, other?

Sometimes, it's best not to keep a long distance relationship going.
How far away did you move? If it is a short distance (I'm assuming not, or you wouldn't be asking) then maybe give it a chance, but if it's far away, then I would just say to move on.
You don't want to put yourself through the hassle of long distance relationships, and eventually, they'll end in a non-pleasant way if it goes too far.
Seeing as you are only thirteen, I would just say to end it now, and move on. You will have plenty of time and chances to get into more relationships; one's that will most likely be healthier, and may actually have the potential to go somewhere.

I think all be it you are feeling down about this, you might find better answers here.
Depression, Loss, Grief :arrow: Relationships and Dating. You will also find other threads in this section that have been highlighted before about how to keep a long distant relationship.

I have to agree with Steven on this one. If the distance was short I would say it is possible to keep the relationship going because you at least have a chance of meeting up. However, if the relationship is an incredibly long distance when you have little chance of meeting up on a semi regular basis then personally you might want to think about the future of your relationship.

How long have you been going out? I mean if it is not a long period of time then I would suggest you break the relationship off. However, if you have been going together a long period of time you can make it work.

You're only 13 you have your whole life a head of you. :)

Texting, phone, skype/facetime... they're all great ideas, and if you both feel strongly then go for it! Just be aware that 99 times out of 100, long distance doesn't work. It might be best to stay friends, but peacefully end the relationship rather than gradually growing apart.

I think you have to use everything and then some, like write and post a letter or card something they can just have you know under a pliiow or in the purse/wallet thing. so much digital stuff you maybe need a keepsake thing. Hope this helps

I agree with the posters saying you may need to move on. If you're only and hour or 2 away then skype, facebook, text, anything that's communication.
But if you previously lived in, say California, then just move on.

Good luck!
