Online Degree and Romance: Can there be any connection?

It is again that time of the year when men go hunting around for mushy stuff and women bring out their red or pink party gowns. As I was searching the net for Valentine’s Day gift ideas, I came across this interesting article on the Directory of Schools website. The article analysis how Online Education can enhance one’s love life. The ideas and suggestions are simply wonderful and I thought it would be good to ponder on them a bit.

Anytime:

What every relationship requires is quality time spent in communication of love. This is very difficult in case you pursue a regular degree at a university. The demands of campus time, lab classes, etc. make sure you have no time left for romance. Even otherwise, all this coupled with the travel time makes sure that you are too drained for cuddling.
However, an Online Degree eases your love life. It nullifies travel time and campus time, thereby giving you an opportunity to strengthen your romance.

Anywhere:

Another big advantage of Online Learning is that you don’t have to be at a particular place to pursue your learning. Whether you are in Singapore, Maldives, Mauritius or Himalayas, you can continue your learning as long as you have a computer and an internet connection. So, you no longer have to drop out of a romantic vacation in the Hawaii for the sake of education.

In ‘Teaching Children to Love’, Doc Childre says,

“Harmonizing heart and brain through love is what can establish a complete intelligence, a complete self, where a child can look at life and realize there are no dead ends, there are always possibilities.”
As long as you have the foundation for a strong relationship based on love and laughter, there are always possibilities on making it work – be it through online education or otherwise. What is needed is an understanding of the emotions of another and communicating your feelings.

When you are doing your late night or weekend studies, tell your love that it is for your bright future together. Similarly, the other party can also try and convey love by making those cookies or hot chocolate when the studying partner is breaking the head over project work.

Remember as Luciano de Crescenzo rightly said,
