A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

hi im 16 and i have been going out wiv my boyfriend for about a month and a half. we see each other everyday at school and every saturday. so thats only 1 day of the week that we dont see each other!

i believe that saying (i have forgotten what it is) but something about the heart grows fonder if you have time apart.

i would prefer to see each other less because the excitement will go from the relationship if we see each other all the time!

how can i see less of him? cos i still wanna have days out wiv him on saturdays cos they are fun.

so there is no way to see each other less is there?

flatpack84 agony auntYour lucky enough to still be very young, so don't feel its the end of the world if you decide he isn't the one for you. You should be enjoying your time not thinking about how to see him less! This could be a warning that you're better of as friends.

Perhaps try suggesting to him that you'd like to spend a bit more time with your friends/family/hobby etc and see how he responds. I'm sure if he's a nice young chap he shouldn't mind; being in a relationship doesn't mean you have to live in ecah others pockets!

Good luck :)

You could cut down how much you see him every saturday if you see him most of that did or instead of seeing him every saturday you could see him one saturday a month. That way you won't be seeing him all the time apart from one day.

The only way that you will be able to see whether that saying works (absence makes the heart grow fonder) is by trying the suggestions that i said above. It will make the time that you have together more precious and you will look more forward to the saturdays that you spend together. If that's not the case then i think that you should re-think about whether to carry on the relationship or not.
