Hi, My boyfriend has gone to the other side of the world to work for a few months. Where he is gone is pretty remote so he will only be able to ring me maybe once a week. I'm feeling very down about this, he only left yesterday..I am desperatley worried he will meet someone else, or maybe not want to come back. I know I'm being paranoid as I know he loves me and will miss me... I just can't shake these feelings.

Any suggestions on how to make this time go a bit faster and better for me... All suggestions will be greatly appreciated

I had trust issues and i feel like that contributed to me and my girlfriend splitting up, it took splitting up for me to realise. My advice is dont just ignore the problem, sort it. If you have trust issues find out why and get them sorted! If your relationship means anything to him then everything will be fine! like someone else said it will make it stronger. Dont worry, keep busy but at the same time sort the problem!

LIERIN agony auntHi there

I hear your pain! My BF is going away for only 10 days this summer and I am already going nuts. I am affraid he will meet someone or maybe will figure out that beeing without me is much better and he is happier that way etc ... its BULL SHIT ... don't worry about it. If he really loves you, this time off from each other will make your relationship even stronger. You guys will find out how important you are for each other and how much you miss each other ... it will all be good. Can you maybe go for a lil voccation on you own? go party with your friends and do fun stuff? Dont sit at home and cry because he left! Make yourself busy .. that way time will go much faster and you will get over it faster as weel.

Good luck to you girlie!

Trust me, it will be just FINE

Hi i was in a relationship, and my partner worked away, you will probably find that for the first couple of weeks, you will miss him, in between you will be happy and content on your own, and when he is due to return you will be soooo excited to see each other!!! Then the time you spend together when he is back will be so special!!! If you two have true love, he will not cheat... and remember absence makes the heart grow fonder... i think you will fine!!!! x

bammy agony auntsorry to hear that you'll be parted from your other half its hard to try pass the time without thinkin of them all the time..try keep as busy as possible that will help pass the time. It probably seems like the time will go realy slow but you'll be surprised how fast time flys by & you wont feel it until he's back in your arms."Absence makes the heart grow fonder" so try look at the positive side of things,chin up & instead of feeling bad because he is gone try look forward to when he gets back x x

mikejb73 agony aunthi there, this will either be the making or breaking of you both...im sure that you both love each other but only time will tell, if he's a decent guy (which im sure he is) everything will fine...the only thing you can do is make the most of the time you both will have by speaking to each other via the telephone!!! good luck and hope everything works out for you both!!
