Drifting apart while in college. How can we work on the long distance relationship?

Question - (4 December 2011) 3 Answers - (Newest, 5 December 2011)
A male United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Me and my girlfriend have been dating for over 2 years now. We are both now in college and are drifting apart. It has gotten to the point where she has told me that I annoy her all the time. We are both busy and when I try to talk to her she will ignore me instead of letting me know whats going on. I have told her I understand if she can't talk, but she just has to let me know instead of ignoring me. When I tell her this she gets mad and finds a way to blame it on me. I feel like she doesn't respect me anymore. We'll be chatting online and she will sign off without saying goodbye and won't text me for the rest of the night. Its only 2 more weeks till we're both home for winter break, but I need to start doing something now. We are an amazing couple, but can't seem to figure the long distance thing out. How can we work on the long distance relationship? How can I get her to be more respectful and caring towards me?

So_Very_Confused agony auntShe has told you that you annoy her all the time. She is ignoring you.. What else do you need/want her to do to let you know that she’s done?

She gets mad and blames you…. You feel disrespected, I think you need to find closure at winter break and realize that the relationship has run it’s course.

I think that actually if this is how she is while in a LDR, it would be far worse if it were not an LDR.

hello.. im also in a long distance relationship.

i totally agree with everything notdoneyet has said.

the only thing a long distance relationship has to rest on is an emotional connection (no physical) so with out being able to communicate well, theres no way to continue building that with eachother.

if you can read between the lines, youll start to see that your fights with her are either the highlight of her day, or they arent. if they arent, then the question should be "what is"
