Sounds like you are doing a great job being strong! A one year long distance relationship is not easy.

To keep from missing him so much, make sure you keep a good group of friends around you and keep busy. It is important to be social and not cut yourself off from the rest of your surroundings. This seems to happen for a lot of people in long distance relationships.

Try not to "pester" him too much by calling every five min etc. Let him know that you like when he calls, emails, texts, etc. A simple message saying that you are thinking of him and would love to talk sometime works wonders. Just be honest and open with each other.

Sophie-Lou-X agony auntIt's perfectly normal to miss someone you love if you don't see them very often.

You need to ask yourself something first of all - can you see this relationship lasting if you see so little of each other?

If yes, good for you! I think that shows that you ARE being strong in this relationship, a lot of people couldn't be away from the person they loved. But I think what you really need to do, is not dwell on it. If you're thinking about him 24/7, you're going to cause yourself so much pain. Why not try occupying yourself with something else, such as going out with friends more or finding a hobby? Trust me, it works!

If no, I would say now is probably the time to end it before you cause yourself even more pain.

It's all about how hard you are prepared to work to keep your relationship strong :) x
