Problemang LDR

DEAR Manang,

I’m in a long distance relationship. I love my boyfriend and I know he loves me.

We have been together for two and a half years, but now I think things are not working well. Since he has a business, he is always busy. One time, we did not see each other for two months. Everytime we chat, I could not stop myself from nagging him.

Before, hewould send me messages and even call me. But now he has too many excuses. I really don’t know what’s happening with him.

I feel like he has lost interest. I feel like I am not important, that’s why I started ignoring him, too. I really love him but sometimes i feel tired of our relationship.

I just want to feel like I am also his priority. Although he always says he loves me and can’t live without me, I no longer believe him.

What should I do?

Please help!

REPLY: Napakahirap ng LDR o long distance relationship and I only have the distance between the lovers to blame when things don’t work.

Apart from the distance is the breakdown in communication.

So may I suggest you should talk to him directly and point out what makes you uncomfortable with your current situation? Or maybe try to figure out what’s bothering him, too.

My good guess, baka he has some issues too that he can’t tell you right now. So, be gentle and let him know you are there to listen kung ready na si’ya.

Respect this and also understand his needs. Baka naman busy or stressed talaga siya sa work or may personal struggles din siya.

I would like to point out that you also have to be extra loving and caring because that will help you keep him and your relationship. Be patient my dear
