Long-Distance Relationship Gift Boxes That Make Miles Disappear

Updated by Timothy Paradis

While it's definitely true that distance means so little when someone means so much, there's no denying that long-distance relationships present some unique challenges. Living apart from your significant other –– connecting only through text or video chat –– adds an extra layer of stress to long-distance love. Thankfully, monthly subscription boxes make it easy to send a little love to any time zone in the world!

Just imagine the smile on your bae's face when they open a sweet reminder of your love with a monthly care package of curated, romantic gifts. Take it beyond the standard love notes, greeting cards and digital gift cards and send a thoughtful gift across the country or overseas with ease. Whether you're searching for a special Valentine's Day Gift, a fun Christmas gift, or a lovebox to spice things up, these gifts for long-distance partners (and long-distance friendships, too) say "I love you" in a special way!

Customer Review

“I have been getting Finders Seekers boxes for over a year, and I cannot lie, I'm obsessed. The mysteries are a lot of fun, and they are so much fun to do with friends, especially those that haven't done something like this before. Occasionally, the puzzles are evil (I'm looking at you, Paris box!), but the fact that after a year they can still challenge me is a good thing.” - Rachel C.
