The problem is he joined the Army a few weeks ago and I'm really missing him. I miss him so much that it is affecting the rest of my life. I can't sleep and can't concentrate on my studies. I think my friends are going to start getting annoyed with me soon, because even though I try to avoid it, all I do is talk about him. The thing I need advice on is I'm thinking whether to end it or not. I get it straight in my head that the next time I talk to him I will tell him it's over but I can't actually say it to him. I love him so much and want him in my life, but being with him is making me so unhappy. If you were in my situation, what would you do? Any advice would be truly appreciated xXx Reply to this Question Share |

Please don't rush into ending your relationship!
Talk to your friends, explain how down you've been since your boyfriend went away and that you know you've probably been boring them to death about him ... you'll probably be suprised at how much they understand and feel for you! Your friends are a great support network and if they know how you feel they'll be there for you.
It's never easy when a loved one is away and I know it hurts but the time you have together and the knowledge of what you could have in the future should keep you going!
Talk to him, tell him how difficult you find the situation. Ask him to send regular letters that you can read when you're missing him and want to feel him near. Send him pictures of you that he can keep with him and ask him to do the same for you.
The time he's away will be over and gone sooner than you think. I also had to spend time away from my partner in the forces for a long period of time and found these regular little contacts really kept both of us going until we saw each other again.
I'm so glad we didn't give up. I hope you don't either.
