A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

my boyfriend of 3 years is working abroad for the next 3 months and i'm really worried he's going to cheat on me. he's never cheated on me before but he was a bit of a whore before we got together and most guys can't last 3 months without sex, right? i think what worries me most is if i did i'd probably never find out. what can i do to stop myself flipping out? he's working on quite a remote island so phone/internet sex isn't really an option.

do you trust this guy one little bit?

'most guys can't last 3 months without sex, right?'

i'm pretty sure thats a genrelisation.

if he's the man who tells you he loves you & who you love, then don't worry! you'll only push him away

person12345 agony auntYou're just going to have to trust him. Don't worry about the horniness thing, he'll just masturbate. Even if he slept around a lot before you, doesn't mean he will now. He decided to become monogamous for a reason didn't he? Plus 3 months in you guys are probably still in the honeymoon phase. He'll miss you a lot too and won't be able to wait to be back with you! I agree with the suggestion of keeping busy. My boyfriend went away for a month for school and I had nothing to do but sit around watching TV alone. I went totally crazy and was convinced that if it took longer than an hour to answer a text he MUST be cheating. But then I went away for over a month and was constantly busy and even though I missed him, it wasn't all-consuming and didn't ruin my trip. So get together with friends, enroll in classes, volunteer to walk dogs, do anything you can to keep busy. It will be over before you know it.

Hi there.

Well i hear you, i have the same issue, but i the one going to a remote island for a month and a half. ok its not far as long but i know what your on about.

Look, from what i know, u have to really trust him.I mean u have been together for so long, and if its meant to be, there should be no problem, and the fact u guys have been together so long, means u shudnt worry.

Guys do "sleep around" when unnatatched and not commited, but u guys r committed. Trust each other and the worrying should go.
