How do you cope being apart from your partner?

Ive started someone who lives a few hours away and I just want to be with him all the time (I know this isnt possible, as we both have jobs) I dont want to scare him off but telling him how I feel, I get the impression he is pretty keen on me, but I cant cope with just seeing him once a week, as we both have lifes away from each other.

how do you cope when you are not with your partner? how often do you see them?

DJ8433 agony auntFor me, I stay busy doing other things to keep my self esteem up. For her, I try to do things for her even if she's not here. I try a new recipe, and cook it for her when she comes back. I buy her a nice gift and send it to her. I talk to her on the phone at least twice a day. It depends on what you both want from the relationship and if you both are wanting to make it long term. I think you should give him some time though to decide how he really feels about you. Be there for him when you are together. Tell him you miss him when you talk. Tell him you love sleeping next to him. Make him feel like a king. Over time you will be able to see if he loves you like a Queen and wants to be with you long term. Love, live life and be happy, it'ds too short not to.

Ladyme agony auntHey

I know how you feel, my boyfriend has a job and i don't get to see him much either. I can definelty relate to you when you say about not wanting to scare him of with your feelings. The best thing to do is tell him that you miss him when hes not around and try to keep in contact with him as much as possible for example little texts or phonecalls. But the best thing to do is just tell him how you feel.
