tinkerbell29 agony aunthi hun,

all i can say is you need to talk openly with your boyfriend and let him know how you feel.I am also in a long distance relationship myself, my partner is in the army and was stationed locally when i met him. Although after 3 months he was sent 4 and a half hours drive away. I too was scared to express how I was feeling and scared that the distance would cause problems.When I eventually told him how I was feeling I learned he was feeling exactly the same. We have now been together almost a year and things are great, we are in a strong loving relationship and are engaged to be married. Tell him how you feel and do the little things like writing him letters, sending cards, text messages and e mails to show him how strong your feelings for him are.I wish you the very best for the future and hope you find the true happiness you deserve. take care xx

pagan agony auntjust an idea but why dont you try writing letters to each other.

i was in a long distance relationship (70 miles) and we now live together. we wrote to each other as it made it just as special as a kiss or a hug. to get a hand written letter is personal and it may help your relationship :)

Andy00 agony auntIn answer to how to avoid being shy: Do whatever you feel comfortable with. Say whatever your heart tells you and don't regret it.

To keep the relationship alive takes a lot of work. My only advice I can really give is; have things to talk about. Go out and do things in your day. New things. See friends reguarly. Do lots of things for fun. That way, you can tell him about things you got up to at the end of the day. He can ask you about what you did and have in interesting conversations. Too often in my long distance relationship did I have nothing interesting to tell my girlfriend, and I think she began to grow bored of this. Please don't let the same thing happen to you.

jtaunton5410 agony auntI had a long distnace relationship once. He lived in Arizona and I lived in California. I know thats not too far but we only saw eachother like every 2 or 3 months. Eventually since we couldnt see eachother, we just kinda lost touch and communication over time. That doesnt have to happen to you because I think that if you communicate with him and tell him your feelings, let him express his you two should be ok. Try and talk on the phone alot, send sweet letters to eachother, email etc. there are so many things that you can do to communicate to him, it is just all a matter of whether or not you both want to take the time to do it.
