Maintaining a healthy relationship requires a lot of effort - while maintaining a long-distance relationship is an art form. It requires a lot of self-awareness, a high level of trust, confidence, and of course, a solid set of communication skills. With the advancement of technology over the last decade, long-distance relationships have become much easier to manage than in the past but it is still a lot of work. Would you be in a long-distance relationship? How long do these types of relationships last? What does it take to overcome distance, time differences, and geographical separation? How to make it work? In the times of social distancing that eliminates physical proximity from each other, we all are in some sort of long-distance relationship, so it is time to learn from other's experiences.

She starts her day with 30 min run before the sunrise and practicing yoga in the evening, he sleeps late and is watching the sports channel from his favorite couch. Can these individuals find happiness inside of dating/relationships? Is it important for those in a relationship to have similar lifestyle priorities and habits, especially physical activities? To make a relationship work, do both people really have to be going at the same speed in the same direction at the same time? How do lifestyle differences connect to shared values?

Times are changing and so are some rituals and rules of courting. The older generation keeps saying that the way millennials date can’t be called “dating”...well, wait until Gen Z starts setting dating trends. What was once unacceptable is considered to be the norm today and vice versa. How has dating changed through ages? How are people from different generations adapting to new realities? We've been lucky to get together an amazing group of people in our big ole beds to discuss this hot topic. We are not subject matter experts we are merely talking it over and sharing experiences: What do you miss about the dating of 70s and 80s? What has most surprised you in this new dating reality? Where do you see it going? Now let's pull back the sheets...

It is probably the best time to validate cliche phrases like: 'Love knows no boundaries or distance'... or 'When two or more people are meant for each other, no distance is too far, no time is too long', and no virus outbreak can break them apart. While dating or looking for love in the era of social distancing, what new measures should we take? Can we look at a new unfortunate reality as an opportunity to be creative in finding new ways to maintain relationships, communicate on a deeper level, learn to talk it over and become more intimate without physical contact? Perhaps it's time to dust off the old book "Love in the time of cholera" by Gabriel Garcia Marquez or as we can now apply to call it "Love in the time of the coronavirus".
