A female United States age 30-35, *han14 writes:

Me and my bf have been in a long distance relationship for about a year.Just recently his father decided he doesn't like me and punished my boyfriend off the phone with ME for 2 YEARS. This made me so mad. My boyfriend still sneaks and calls only like 4 times a week and it hurts because it's not how it used to be when we talked for half the day. This is really making me feel upset and like i'm not in a relationship at all. I've talked to him about how i feel but he says it's not his fault because his dad is always around.I don't know what to do anymore and i'm tired of feeling this way.If anyone has advice it would really help.Thank-you for reading.

Jamer70 agony auntLetters and email are a good idea if not

Also as the dad most likely pays the bills he has every right to cut him off when he wants as hes the adult and your bf is the kid. Unfair right! no not really but it does seem that way

Another way to actually talk is for your bf to try and earn some money and buy phone cards to call long distance.

You could try sending each other letters or emails. I know it's not the same as hearing the other persons' voice but it is a way to express your feelings to one another. Plus letters can be saved and reread whenever you want.

lexilou agony auntAs a parent I think of the practical things, is it possible that he is running up huge phone bills and this is why his father is acting this way. My son did this and it cost us three times as much in one month then we normally pay as he was calling a girl on her cell phone. In uk we have different call costs at different times is it the same where you are?? If so see if he can compromise with his father and just ring when its cheaper and share the costs between you, i.e. you ring him twice a week and he rings you twice. x
