writes: I was just wondering if I call my boyfriend too much? I call him any time I need to talk. If he doesn't answer the phone I will wait about an hour and then call again until he answers the phone. If he doesn't answer the phone by the time I go to bed I just don't bother and I go to sleep and hope that he will answer the phone the next time that I call. The phone will ring until it goes to voice mail and I will leave him a voice mail and he will not call me back. At this moment I do not have my cell phone. So he says that doesn't like calling at my parents house because he doesn't want my dad to answer the phone so I call him it is running up my phone bill by doing this because he has a long distance phone number. I don't know what to do. Please help.

Have your boyfriend's responses ever indicated that HE thinks you're calling too much? If not, then I wouldn't worry: Sounds like your problems may be circumstantial -- like, he can't call you back late at night because he doesn't want to wake up your parents, so that puts the burden on you.
Long distance relationships can be hard, and in them much emphasis is put on the telephone! Do you have e-mail with him? that could help, or hopefully you
could get another cell phone. I hope that it works out, and that you get to see him in person in the near future! You and he could set up a certain time in the evening when you could call to save money.

When i went out with my bloke i used to get so anxious if i didnt get a phone call or text, but some blokes are like this. They dont text or ring when we want them to. It just isnt as important to them as it is to us, so we get either mad or down about it. Try and see it from their point of view. They are busy etc and the phone keeps ringing. This can annoy some people, so try and back off a bit. Instead of waiting an hour before you ring, add another hour onto that. Then keep putting it back. If you dont ring one day, how would you feel? I bet if you didnt ring him, he would be on the phone to you. Let him do the running for a change. Make him phone you.
take care
