16 Relatable Songs For Couples In A Long-Distance Relationship On Valentine's Day

Lily Snodgrass

If you are in/have been in a long-distance relationship before, then you know how hard it can be to maintain a connection. This is particularly true when you see other couples being cute for Valentine's Day. If you're not going to be spending this February 14th with your s/o, then these 16 relatable songs are for you!

1. "Colder Weather" by Zac Brown Band

"Oh, I wanna see you again, but I'm stuck in colder weather."

2. "So Far Away" by Carole King

Grab your tissues.

3. "One Call Away" by Charlie Puth

There's a 10/10 chance that you'll wish your s/o really was Superman and could just fly to you after listening to this.

4. "Ho Hey" by The Lumineers

A sappy song about not being with the person you love? Perfect.

5. "Already Home" by A Great Big World

You just know that the creator of "Say Something" is going to wreck you again.

6. "Hey There Delilah" by Plain White T's

Hey there, Delilah, you and your boyfriend are every long-distance couple's goals.

7. "Right Here, Right Now" by Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens

#throwback to the 2000s because this is actually such a relatable song for any couple who are about to leave each other.

8. "We've Got Tonight" by Bob Seger

As someone who loves old music, this one is particularly good.

9. "Faithfully" by Journey

Wrecked.

10. "Wouldn't It Be Nice" by The Beach Boys

It really would be nice actually, yeah.

11. "A Thousand Miles" by Vanessa Carlton

"I would walk a thousand miles if I could just see you tonight."

12. "I Want Crazy" by Hunter Hayes

Country music fans, this one is yours!

13. "Come Back... Be Here" by Taylor Swift

The old Taylor knew a thing or two about missing your s/o.

14. "Home" by Michael Buble

"But I'm just too far from where you are and I miss you, you know."

15. "I'm Already There" by Lonestar

Honestly, if this doesn't make you tear up you might not have a heart. Whether or not you have kids, this is still a summary of what it feels like to be in an LDR.

16. Your song

Inevitably, the most meaningful songs are going to be the ones you share with each other. Go listen to your song on repeat.

Minus your song, you can find this playlist on Spotify here.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
