A few days before the coronavirus pandemic swept through New York City, transforming everyday life as we know it, my best friend went on a date.

My interview with Sylvie Bigar at the Washington Post offers some guidelines: Some traveled for work, some traveled for fun, but some of us also traveled for love. Until last month, couples managed their long-distance relationships — be it across the ocean or a campus — as an intimate negotiation.
