I (24 m) met someone on hinge, she (23 f) lives in Bangladesh and I live in Canada. She has plans to move to Canada, near where I live, for a master’s program next September. We are 12,000 km and 12 hours (time difference) apart. We have been talking for nearly a month and we hit it off extremely well. I’ve never felt this way about someone before and I really want it to work out, I think she is the one.
Her love languages are almost exactly equally distributed, but my love languages are highest in physical touch followed by quality time. I know I can get quality time with her when we are on video call, but for obvious reason I cannot get physical touch. Does anyone have advice? Anything is appreciated, advice, something I could buy, etc.
TL;DR long distance relationship, need advice cause my love language is physical touch

When you say next September do you mean 2022 or 2023? Cause if it’s this year, I would imagine you could just hang on with the idea that you only have about 3 months till she would be there. If 2023, I don’t think starting off a new relationship long distance for over a year would be fulfilling for you.
Have you heard of these things called planes.
Although if you’re already like this a month in maybe LDR really aren’t for you.
Sounds like you should’ve set your mileage range lower on hinge.
Relaaaxx, enjoy every moment you guys get to FaceTime or call each other. The 12 hour difference is rough but getting to see her on the phone for even 30 minutes is something. When my boyfriend left to the military I asked if he would sent me a shirt of his with his scent on it and he did just that. With the way time is going, September 2023 will come by so fast. I know flight tickets are expensive but the best days to fly would be on the weekdays Monday through Thursday as those days are the cheapest.
When you say physical touch, do you mean sex or cuddling or some combination of the two? Because sure you guys can do sexy things over the phone or video call, but cuddling…man, if that’s what you need the most to feel loved, a LDR is not a great place to be. I don’t think there IS a way to deal with the need for physical affection when your partner is so far away.
