When you are separated by the demands of life, you have to know how to strengthen your relationship while being separated.
Whether it’s a job that requires travel, training that takes you away for a period of time, or even mission work, separation puts a strain on marriage.

However, you don’t have to fret over the time you will be apart. You can get through it and deepen your relationship.
This has been modeled to me by my parents for my entire life prior to my father’s passing.
And I too have experienced separation from my husband while we were dating and in our marriage.
How to strengthen your relationship while being separated?
“If you want to survive separation, you must connect with intention. But so many of us connect by chance.”
And that chance is no planning. You just happen to be in the same room, the same place, at the same time.
Think about when you dated. You scheduled a time to meet up, go to dinner, go to the movies. You connected with intention.
Yet what’s going on today? You eat dinner together if he gets home in time before you’re off and running to different kids’ activities. You may snuggle if you go to bed at the same time.
That kind of connection will kill a marriage and you’re seeing each other every day.
So how do you connect while being separated?
The K.I.S.S. ~ Connect with Intention!
- Make time for each other.
- Do it with purpose.
- No excuses.
- Be creative.
