I'm closing my account after being on this site for longer than I can remember right now.
I would like to say thank you to all the columnists that I've met through this site, may your hearts of gold continue to shine through this site.
My reason is simple: I no longer feel I have a use for it anymore. I once was a person who couldn't help other people because of certain difficult situations in my past, but all that has now changed. This site allowed me to be who I really was and for that I'm so grateful for that. It played a very important role in my life and I'll never forget it!
The questions which I answered allowed me to reflect on my life and where it was going, and gave me the opportunity to really appreciate the life that I have, which I'm now living with open arms.
I wish you well for the future,
Triquetra....signing off for the last time.

18/f dating an 18/m
Ok. I live in Illinois and I'm in a 4 month long distance relationship with a boy who lives in North Carolina. We met a year ago and when he was in town over new years we finally decided to try the long distance thing. we mostly talk every day through texting and over the phone and through MSN and stuff. so from January all through March things are going amazingly well. We spent two weeks together over spring break, and he's coming here this weekend for my prom. I know I'm head over heels in love with him.
But, lately he's been kind of distant.. like I have to be the one instigating the conversations and I have to seek him out. We don't really have a lot to talk about except make little jokes and mild flirtation. THe other day I called him twice and he didn't answer or call me back at all until the following day. My friends keep saying he's being an asshole and I should tell him, but I really don't want to be "That bitchy, nagging girlfriend". I'm crazy about him, and he says he loves me, but the distance is really making em paranoid.
What should I do? I've gone to bed the past few nights almsot in tears because i'm getting so frustrated by him ignoring me... I have thoughts about moving in together and such. I'm so in love, and he's the funniest, most romantic person I know (and the first guy to make me feel wanted and loved) but I think we've lost the spark due to the distance. Please help!
Thanks so much in advance. (link)

Well, ever thought about the fact that he could be busy?
You're quite right not to listen to what your frineds say about him, because it's your own choice as to what you want to do. If you're in love with him, then that should be enough for them.
Now, as for your boyfriend. Usually, I would tell couples to get Skype for a long distance relatioship, but it seems you've got that covered so well done on that!! But in case you do want to try it, here's the website for it and see what you think: www.skype.co.uk
When you next talk to him, ask how his day has been and whether it's been busy lately and those kinds of things and if he asks you, then you tell him. Even the smallest stuff can help generate a good conversation. Ask how work is going because then he knows that you're interested in what he does.
Just a word of advice, don't try and chase him for a conversation. If he wants to talk, then he'll call you when he's got the time.
I hope this helped,
triquetra
