Worried about being away from my boyfriend?

my boyfriend is going away for 3 months soon and i'm worried about how i am going to cope..





we have been together for over 2 years now and we both feel very strongly about each other.. i guess that we are what both of us consider to be ';in love'; (no cynicism intended)..


he is touring with his band and we will have little opportunity to talk due to the cost of overseas calling and limited internet access - i have had people tell me that old cliche that ';boys will be boys'; on tour but it seems ridiculous to break-up in anticipation of infidelity. surely guys don't morph into sex-hungry debauched animals just because they're tripping around in a van with some guitars?





i just wanted to know whether anyone has ever been in a similar situation and whether their relationship survived..Worried about being away from my boyfriend?
My boyfriend went away on an internship for 3 months when we had only been dating for about a year and 5 months. I worried at first that the distance would make him not want me anymore, for whatever crazy reason (even though he was coming back in just three months for school no matter what). Well wasn't I stupid. It's hard to get over the whole not being able to see him when you want thing, and you'll miss him like crazy, but you'll cope with that part fine.





Now, as to YOUR boyfriend in a band...well that adds a risk factor, doesn't it? Here's the question, do you trust him? Fully, 100% trust him? If you don't, then do some soul searching. Is he the kind of guy that always checks out other girls (even if you're there with him), or says ';Oh this girl hit on me today'; (in a sort of proud or cocky way) or ';That girl is hot'; (even if she is just a movie star)?


If your answer is NO to all of those, then don't worry a bit.


Another thing to consider...are YOU willing to make the long distance work? You say that you both are ';in love.'; Now, does that mean that you THINK you are, or really you truly are? In my opinion, it means that neither of you consider another person worth your time (dating-wise) and that unless someone better comes along, you two will end up married someday. My boyfriend and I are at that point, and have actually decided, together, that we are getting married in a couple years.





And lastly, talk to him about it.


Best of luck!Worried about being away from my boyfriend?
There are internet cafes all over Europe. They won't be able to go to any city without having access to communicate with you. In most areas, the internet access will be free for up to two hours per day with a minimal charge after that. If they stop somewhere for lunch or coffee, he can send you a quick note or can make arrangements for you to be on at the same time that he expects to be on. If he does not have a laptop, get him one as a gift before he leaves
My boyfriend and i ended up going to college 5 hours apart from each other. I was worried because he was in a fraternity and he parties a lot so i thought that he might get drunk and do something stupid. He never did, we understood that we loved each other and that we would do everything to make our relationship work, if you decide that before he leaves im sure everything will be ok.
Nicky says, ';you should be worried'; as you're about to feel ';reality'; in a nutshell. While away with his band, he will experience copious amounts of alcohol and female genetalia while you'll be considering your own ways to cheat, unfortunately you wont have any effect on him at all and will only ending making urself look like a skank haha. yup, reality in a nutshell.
I have a boyfriend and we are in the same situation. I live in another state and only see him every three or four months.





The thing I have found to work best is just to keep your mind on something, then when you do get to talk to him, enjoy it, and love every moment of it
well i have a bf and we live kinda far from eachother so its really hard to see him...sence i am young i have no car its really hard.i lasted almost 2 months without seing or talking to him but when we did eventually talk everything was perfectly fine if you trust him it shouldnt be a problem it is going to be hard but you'll wait for him if you really love him
Well some times when I went out of town my relationship survived and he called me every single night but if that does not work since he will be over seas then write him a letter or send him a post card.
two years is a long time to be together remember that all the time. Chances are he will not. And if he does try not to care just simply break up with him!
No, guys behave on tour.
