It's been said,
Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
But when it comes to relationships, I believe that's a load of bullsh*t because, let's be real, being apart from the person you love most really sucks.
Keeping the romance alive in a relationship can be pretty difficult when you and your partner are separated by thousands of miles.
So then, what's the key to making a LDR work?
Well, thanks to one secret-spilling app, we may now have the answer.
Recently, Whisper asked a bunch of people in long-distance relationships to reveal what they do to stay close with their significant others.
From phone convos to long-distance date nights -- there are all sorts of things couples do to minimize the miles. But apparently, the real secret to making it work is getting digitally down and dirty with steamy Skype sessions on the reg.
Take a look at the pictures below to see couples reveal all the ways they make their LDRs last.
