I'm 18 and a senior in highschool. My boyfriend and I have been together since freshman year, and we've only split for a couple of weeks at a time. Is this normal?
I get hit on a lot at school and out of school, but I don't want to be with anyone else. My boyfriend is in college right now, and we've been doing the long distance thing. But I've never felt that I didn't want to be with him or anything. Is our relationship healthy? I've been told that it isn't, and I decided to go to you for advice since you seem to know your stuff. =P
Thanks,
Cami
It seems to me that your relaionship is healthy and fine, but maybe it's going downhill a little bit because now it's become long distance. Long distance relationships are possible to get through and I don't want you to think that it's not, but you have to work at it. The both of you have to put in as much effort and energy you have 100% in this relationship.
About what other people are saying about your relationship being unhealthy, they are probably thinking this because it's long distance. They might think that your boyfriend might be out partying and cheating or something. Whatever the reason may be, ignore it unless it's something you might not have told me. (Any kind of abuse...)
What you should do is always stay in touch with your boyfriend when the opportunity comes. Talk about your feelings and what you've been up to. Don't let it be a conversation of just not saying anything. Keep the relationship running like it's normal course.
But more importanly you should stay active with your friends. Go out and have fun. Don't be afraid that he will call one night, you two will be able to talk.
I really hope I helped you in a way. Just send me another inbox for more questions!
