writes: I'm 35 and my g/f is 33 and we have been in a long distance relationship for 9 months now. We see each other when we can and I am foolishly in love with her.One of the aspects that I struggle with is that she very very rarely expresses her feelings ... the last time she told me she loved me was over a week ago.This is new to me as in my other relationships it had always been me being less expressive and now I am faced with this.How do I cope with this? I really need to feel her love but recently I have not. Am I expecting too much?

Long distance relationships are HARD! I'm not going to lie to you. Ok I'm only 22 but I have been in one for the last 3 or so years, but they can work.
I don't think you are expecting too much. I would suggest talking to her about it and seeing if she feels its too much. She may be scared of expressing her feelings, or may feel its a little to soon. But you wont know until you ask :)
The best piece of advice I can give anybody in a long distance relationship is to talk about everything and anything. From the littlest thing that bothers you to how you are feeling. It takes a while to get the "hang" of talking that much to someone so far away because close distance relationships are easier because you do see the person a lot more.
Good luck hunni!

Hey in my opinion:As a girl I think it's very hard to tell a guy you love him more then a couple of times and make sure you mean it, it can make or break a relationship and it's very hard to see which It will do. Some women feel the need to say "I love you too" so as not to upset the other. You are not expecting too much everyone needs to feel love in a relationship. I just think you need to give her time to decide and make sure she means it. If you feel waiting does not seem to work then try confronting her without putting her on the spot. Hope this helps :D
