LDR Window Shopping

Different couples have their own list of fun activities or things they would like to do on dates. For my boyfriend and I, that would be shopping. I never thought I would find a boyfriend I don’t feel awkward shopping with. I don’t like being rushed or for him to be waiting for me. If you and your ldr partner enjoy shopping, this could be a fun activity for you :)

He studies in Arizona, while I in Singapore. But that’s not going to stop us from going on window shopping dates. This was not really planned, it just developed through our skype time together. He loves to look through Amazon and would often send me pictures of sneakers, coffee machines and bags. I would open the link and tell him what I think about it. From there we would scroll through the site and share links to the items we thought were nice through the skype chat.

One day we decided to get couple running shoes so we went searching for a matching pair. The process of sharing our thoughts and what we liked in shoes was an enjoyable one. This can apply for any product you would like to purchase together! It allows for us to exchange our taste and preferences and it also gives us running dates to look forward to until we see each other again during our summer break in May :)

P.s. We got the Adidas Performance Vengeful M Running Shoe, light blue sole for me and blue for him. They both have this red accent at the side which i think gives the black shoe more excitement! wheeeee!
