My emotionally challenged, never-home boyfriend! How do I cope?

Tagged as: Dating, Long distance, Troubled relationships<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (10 April 2008) 1 Answers - (Newest, 10 April 2008)
A female United States age 36-40, *ane says writes:

My boyfriend and I have been together since August of 2006. He was in the military, discharged and has been working for a government contractor. He has been deployed for eight months of our relationship and will be gone for another three. I knew, when we began our relationship, that he was not an emotional or affectionate person and while he is home I am able to deal with it but it has become problematic during his deployments. How do I deal with this? Is this something I should learn to accept or is it something he should work on?
