I've been dating my 18 year old boyfriend for half a year and he went off to university this year, we've been continuing a long distance relationship. I have recently found it hard to trust him and he hasn't even done anything to make me think this. I don't want to break up with him but I've been feeling really disconnected from him, like I'm not getting as much attention from him as I used to. I really need advice please!!

It's very difficult to carry on a long-distance relationship. And now that he's in college, he's going to be very busy with his studies and activities in college, and meeting new friends. You probably won't be hearing much from him.

Why not do your own thing? Meet new friends, or pal around with your own friends. Go out and do things, and have fun! Don't tie yourself down. You should be enjoying your teen years and not pining away for a guy who's away enjoying HIS life. He might feel differently when he comes home for a visit -- you never know. I don't want to depress you, but just want YOU to have some fun, but to know what to expect too.

Best of luck & God bless. Hugs, Lee

As the above poster mentioned, long distance relationships are tough. I suggest that you go about your daily life and go out and have fun. Don't sit around and wait for him to call.

Yes, I agree, Dont waste your life away, hoping and waiting, for something that may never be. Your a young person, eventually all the emotions you are now feeling WILL pass, Spend time with your friends and start having a good time, I wonder if he is ? I do wish you all the best and hope all works out for you.
