A female Spain age 41-50, *ilyrose writes:

My boyfriend and i have been in contact for 3 years. We started dating in our country before he moved to Paris.In our country,he would call me everyday,see me every week because my mom wanted that way.Alhough my mom and my sister let us see each other,we were very close. Everything was perfect.Until october 14,2005 he went to Paris. I lived in Madrid and he was in Paris,he would call me every day. My mom got very mad at me. She told me to not contact my boyfriend because he is poor. Anyways, everything was perfect. We called each other without my mom and my sister knowing. On june 2006, he bought me a plane ticket to Paris and i went without my mom and sister knowing who i went to visit. He introduced me to his family. Everything was perfect.

On june 2007, he went to Portugal to get a residence. He called me and i called him. Everything was perfect because we got much closer to each other.

On november 15,2007, he sent me money for me to buy a plane ticket for me to meet him in Lisbon. (My mom and my sister doesn't know that i went to meet him in Lisbon). He was still that guy that i first met. He worries about me and everything. Until the year 2008 came. January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August and September everything was great. He called me and we kept in touch. Everything changed when October came. I wanted to test him if he loved me. On October 27, i lied to him that i am in Lisbon at a guy friends house. I was pretending that i was in Lisbon but i am really in Madrid. When i told him that i am in Lisbon, he told me why didnt i tell him that i was near him? and that if he knew, since he misses me, he would go to the airport to pick me up and we would stay together for 3 weeks. He found out that i was lying to him. I am in Madrid, he is in Lisbon i get worried if he sees another girl at any moment. I was in danger. Then came the nightmares. He did not call me like he used to. He changed. Long distace relationships are a nightmare. He just cauldnt take it anymore. Guys get tired very quickly. I think he just got tired of me because, we couldnt see each other like we used to when we were in our country. Our relationship just did not make any sense at all.

I am here in Spain with my mother, she tells me a lot of stupid things. But if me and ex boyfriend stayed together, i am sure that my mom wouldnt leave us alone. We have been in this struggle for 3 years. He is poor but i love him. I know my ex boyfriend very well. He just tired and moved on whith his life. What do i do if my mom keeps on telling me what is wrong and right for me? Just because he is poor?
