Wow! I disagree with most of the posts on here. It is pretty obvious that your boyfriend adores you and I think every woman in her right mind would love to have a man that loving and sensitive by her side. Not everyone is good at dealing with long distance relationships, they can be extremely stressful. His behavior is perfectly normal, it is that of a man deeply in love with a woman he misses way too much and can't wait to be with. Sensitive men with a good heart are very, very rare nowadays so please hold on to what you've got. Give him a bit of reassurance because I think that is what he desperately needs from you. If you love him, don't be afraid to show it and say it. Send him a nice romantic e-card, surprise him with a little gift, small details like that can make a tremendous difference when you are separated and it'll make him feel a bit more appreciated.

If he calls to check on you, what is wrong with that? Aren't you really committed to him? Aren't you being faithful? I wouldn't mind my boyfriend checking on me at all unless I was doing something I wasn't supposed to. Controlling and jealous people don't really bother me because I've never given them reasons to be suspicious at all, but that's just me. People have different needs when it comes to relationships and maybe you're both not compatible.
