Hi

Im gonna sound like such a bad gf but here goes

My bf works in the working away for a few months Obv working (never the same hours two days running) is a good reason that he can not reply to my texts all the time and i understand this (when im thinking logically)

Thing is thinking logically doesnt seem to be coming easy at the moment and most of the time if i dont get a text back i start freaking out I dont get angry with him just with the situation

His texts just seem to mean the world to me I try to keep myself busy but feel so down He is my every thought

I know these might be normal feelings but i have never had them before Its like i wanna be in contact 24/7 and he needs his own space

Toria agony auntWe can't always reply to a text that comes through our phone for whatever reason, I'm sure he replies as soon as he can and at least he does reply, I've been in situations where I've texted and not got a reply and when I've asked why I've got the I saw the message couldn't reply at the time and just forgot answer.

This is going to take you abit of time to get use to but you need to remember your boyfriend is working and this slow replying isn't down to him it's down to the situation therefore it isn't his fault so not fair for you to get mad at him because of this.

What you have to becareful of is if you keep getting mad at slow replies he may get to the point where he thinks it's been too long since the message came through and if he replies now you'll get mad because he took his time so he doesn't reply at all.

Good luck :o)
