Middle-distance relationship

A middle-distance relationship, or "MDR", is when two people find themselves living with *JUST* enough distance between them that they can’t see each other as often as they'd like — shorter than the distance between Taylor Swift and Adele's vocal ranges but longer than the time it takes to master the catchy lyrics to Tay Tay’s latest chart-topper. Commonly used for a relationship with a significant other, friend, or friend's pet that lives more than 30 minutes, one bridge or a very large hill away.

Person 1: How often do you see your BFF?
Person 2: Um, like once a month TOPS. She lives all the way in Oakland.
Person 1: Ew. I hate crossing the bridge.
Person 2: I know, but I love her. She makes having a middle-distance relationship totes worth

Dude: I sit next to her in history, she's a total distance chick.

O.D.A. (Optimal distance of attraction)

The distance at which a person is most attractive. Beer goggles decrease the ODA between persons.

"That chick has a long O.D.A. (optimal distance of attraction). I thought she was fine from a distance, but once I got up close, I realized she had a face like a horse."

distance learning

(n) staring at a teacher on a computer screen instead of going to in-person school because the schools are closed; getting an education from teachers through Zoom calls; going to Zoom school

Distance learning sucks because everyone is getting headaches from too much screen time and it is difficult to learn from teachers who are teaching from the computer instead of in the classroom. Some kids like distance learning because they can log-on with their cameras turned off and play video games all day instead of doing their school work.

Long distance life

A term to collectively describe the friends, family and other social networks that live far enough away from you that you're limited to communicating through phone calls, sms, AIM, facebook, etc.

I've been doing a bad job at living my long distance life lately, I haven't talked to my old college buddies for three weeks.
