Long Distance Dating


Question Posted Thursday February 3 2005, 8:46 pm

O.K. heres the deal. I am a female and 15 yrs old. I have a b/f in a diffrent state i talk to him on MSN and the phone but I also don't want to be hurt by someone else. I have many people from his high school that i have talked to and even met, but still I'm not sure if he might be cheating on me or not! i would like to know your thoughts on long distance dating and what you think I should do. Do I ask him outright or ask a friend of his? Do I get a girl from his school on my cell or MSN and ask her?? I'm just really not sure what to do. I met him at a camp I went to earlier in the year. I really have only been with him in person once. Please give me some advice as to what to do! Thanks a ton!

Dear Long Distance Dater,


Relationships are always hard on the heart. Long distance relationships not only tug at the heart strings but like wise on the mind.


It's funny how the eyes and heart must work together to have perfect trust in another person.


Trust is the key word here. Has your boyfriend given you reason to doubt that he is faithful to you? Do you and your boyfriend have a strong enough relationship to be able to trust each other?


It sounds like you do not. There seems to be another issue at hand here. Perhaps you should discuss with him how you are feeling. You should never devise a plan against someone you care about but instead rather be able to openly communicate about your problems. Tell him you are concerned that your relationship is too distant. Explain to him that you do not feel you both are as close as a normal couples are. Do not directly tell him you have doubts he is faithful to you but rather say you care about him and are unsure about your status in each others lives. The point here is to make sure that your concerns are for your mutual benefit.


Long distance relationships will always leave you unsatisfied one way or another. Keep this in mind.

You might even want to reconsider your relationship. Obviously long distance relationships require a great deal more effort than normal relationships. Perhaps you will find it easier and more enjoyable to have someone you care about closer to you.


Distance creates confusion and mistrust. Honest relationships can only come from direct contact. Keep your eyes open for love a little closer to home.


Best of Luck,


She Screams.


P.S. If you find my advice helpful, please rate me and be sure and tell your friends.
