reader, anonymous, writes (4 August 2006): A relationship involves spending a certain amount of time together, otherwise you basically saddle yourself with all the fetters of having a boyfriend with NONE of the perks. I mean, it's fun to tell people you have a boyfriend, but if you can never see him, what's the point? You need to work out a way to see him enough so that you're satisfied. If that can't be managed, then it's not meant to be right now.

I am glad to hear that your parents care about you enough to stop you going out late. I see your dilemma but I am guessing you two must get work breaks and lunch breaks in your respective jobs? Use that time to see each other. If you two really like each other then you should wait until the end of the season and see each other at 'normal' times then - he won't be working weekend shifts from hell all his life.
