A female United States age 26-29, anonymous writes:

Ok, so me and my boyfriend have been together for about 7 months now. We have known each other for a long time and fell in love with each other.

Im writing this because he is going to trucking school for 3 weeks and i am going to be stuck here almost 400 miles away from him and by myself. Im terrified im going to lose him and i feel like im not good enough for him.

He always tells me that im the best thing thats ever happened to him, but ive been hurt so much in the past that im scared for him to leave. I always tell him that he deserves better than me and he always replies saying that no one deserves someone better than an angel but i have one and its you.

He is so sweet but i dont know why im so worried for.

Sensible Alice agony auntIf he is going to trucking school then he is training to be a truck driver I take it? If that's his career path then this won't be the first or last time you're apart for long periods of time. And any truck drivers wife will tell you it won't be easy, but a relationship can be managed. But it will need to be maintained just like any other. Just get over this first separation, then deal with what comes next. Try not to make the parting any harder on yourself with what-if's. Just take his assurances of love and wrap yourself up, snug in the knowledge you have such a wonderful guy! The time apart will make the reunion all the sweeter.

Honeypie agony auntIf you think he will cheat being away for 3 weeks then your relationship must be rather weak. 3 weeks is nothing. Just stay in touch with each other (and NO not while he is in school/training, but after.

And you need to stop with the "pity party for 1" You have been hurt in the past, got it, but that doesn't mean you CAN PRESUME that every guy will hurt you too. Or that you need to constantly remind him how fragile you are or you WILL push him away. You can not HOLD past actions of an EX over the head of your current BF. It's not his fault your ex (or exes) were douche bags. LET the past go and ENJOY the NOW. Enjoy living.

Why would you not be good enough for him?

If he is GOOD enough for you, you are without a DOUBT good enough for him.

Try to get over your insecurities. not every guy is bad. if he is yours he will come back to you. three weeks is not such a long time. just keep in touch on a daily basis and before you know it, three weeks will be over and the two of you will be together again.
