so there's this guy that i met at a camp about a month ago, but he lives almost 2000 miles away. Because of money, we wouldnt be able to visit each other ever, so I decided we couldnt have a real relationship.
The problem is, we still talk on the phone almost every night for several hours. I enjoy his company and all, but I cant continue this because I just wont have the time. But hes homeschooled, so he has absolutely no experience in the love department. Hes become very attached, and i dont want to hurt him because i still like him, we just couldnt work out.
How do I slowly detach myself without hurting his feelings or totally losing contact?
