Actress Amanda Seyfried explained to InStyle in its latest issue how her long-distance relationship with boyfriend Dominic Cooper isn’t always easy. So how does she do it?

“We Skype,” she says. “It’s boring, but it’s true. We don’t even sit in front of the computer.

“The other day, I was cleaning, he was cleaning. We couldn’t see each other — we were just scrubbing away and talking like we were in the same room.”

This wouldn’t be the first time long-distance couples seek refuge in Skype, an internet telephone service. And sometimes there can be something strangely adorable about romance that blooms over the phone. What do you guys think?
