How to Be Romantic during a Video Chat
Contents
Overseas romance has come a long way over the years. Initially, the only way to bond with your mate was by calling them. Now you have texting and video chat applications that help you get connected. Whether you are in a long-distance relationship being romantic while having a video chat can come in handy.
Most communication skills are nonverbal and having a video chat is the best way to hang out with your partner. You can get nonverbal cues from your partner’s gestures, posture, and facial expressions to make the conversation more intimate. In this article, we are going to look at how to do that.
Be Creative in a Video Chat
Think outside the box when having a video chat. You can have a real-time dance party from your houses or even play an online game. You can also dine with each other by cooking the same recipe in your kitchens or enjoying the same takeout.
There are endless possibilities but the main idea is to create traditional date experiences in the comfort of your houses.
Learn a New thing Together
Video chat enables you to know each other better due to nonverbal communication while discussing deep things. Play guessing games such as the Two Truths and a Lie game and enjoy guessing the legit facts while bonding online.
You can also learn a new subject or new skills together. Start an online class with your partner or even listen to a podcast or a video chat to discuss the topic under discussion. Check out some of the online virtual museums and may realize that both of you share the same passion for art, science, or history.
Consider the Lighting during a Video Chat
Lighting comes in handy when creating a romantic mood. Therefore, consider how your environment is lit before the online chat. Natural light is perfect since it is smoother than artificial light. If you do not have a convenient place to video chat you can make sure that you have two light sources that are directed to your face for your partner to see your face.
Be Ready for Your Close-up
Make a good impression by putting on makeup, styling your hair, and dressing up to boost your confidence. This will make you feel good about yourself on your chat. Lighting will affect the way your makeup looks while video chatting. Therefore, ensure that you check yourself out on your camera, laptop, or tablet to see if you need to make any changes. Self-grooming increases attraction and will make you more romantic.
In summary, thanks to technology couples can connect from far and wide via a simple video chat. You can have a romantic experience together by coming up with creative ways of hanging out together online in real time.
