I feel so lonely. I leave in NYC and my boyfriend lives in VA. I attend college here in NY. We've been together for over a year now and it feels as if i need to be with him all the time. I rarely see him physically. We call each other every day but it isnt the same. Help, i need tips/advice...I need help...what should I do?

Hey, i COMPLETELY understand what you are going through, because I did the exact same thing u're doin with bf for 4 yrs. Actually, I'm goin to be in New York next week visiting my friends. What school do u attend? I attended Pace University last semester, so I'll be in that area. I know it's tough, and I know exactly how u feel. Let me know if u wanna talk. lilcatapillar@hotmail.com

Never having been through this, I can only imagine how you are feeling. Long distance relationships are extremly hard to maintain and require alot of patience, trust and understanding. It seems though that you are both trying if you guys usually make contact via telephone every day...that says something...that you are both conciously trying to make this work, which is awesome and more than alot of others can say.


My advice would be to continue to take things one day at a time...Have you ever thought of making a video tape of you and sending it to him, and him doing the same for you?(no,no...not another Paris video,lol).Sit down with a camcorder, or have a friend tape it for you, and
