Frequently asked questions

Lower scores indicate areas where intentional change can strengthen your relationship, while higher scores show consistent, healthy long-distance practices.
Start small: schedule a recurring check-in, use voice or video to add warmth, celebrate milestones intentionally, and set clear expectations about contact. Try one new habit for a month (e.g., weekly video calls) and track how the relationship changes.
Retake the quiz after noticeable changes (a move, new job, or major life event) or every 3–6 months to measure progress and adjust your strategies for maintaining the long-distance friendship.
