I think my relationship is dying

Well I have been talking to this guy for 5 months now. He says he loves me and I love him too. Lately we haven’t been able to talk as much because I’m tired from step practice at school and I get home later then normal. At this present moment he has gone back to his home area because his mom is sick. So we are at a distance. Just a few weeks ago he had to leave me for a week because he was getting put out of his apartment. So we did not talk at that time until he found a place to be. Then few weeks later he wants to go visit his mom for about 2 weeks. Next he said soon he will be looking for a job for sometime too so that’s more distance. I’m having a feeling that he is talking to an old girlfriend because he always has to be gone for sometime. I really don’t know though. When I ask him questions he starts to tell why he would not cheat and that he loves me so much. I believe he loves me but I’m not sure about the cheating part. Could you tell me what you think?

hi,

Im not sure if this is going to help, but sometimes you need to do the old ‘cliche’ and let him sort himself out. Personally, from a male point of view it is obvious that the “reasons” hes away from you are trivial. Now im not sure about your personal situation whether your still at school or in the workforce but If the love was strong on his half wouldnt he make you involved in his job hunting?

I think your right about hes cheating ways… why would he need to constantly re-assure you of his faithfulness. Im sorry if i sound so negative but i believe the world is a large circle…. what you give… you get, I have pushed away every one that meant something to me! Its ended with me very lonely. I used the lines your man has used but on that same note it would be very unfair to assume that he would be like me. You sound like you love him so maybe you could confront him, ask him what youve just written above. ask him if hes seeing an ex. asking if he really loves you…. Im sure the answer is he loves you, if its not…. It will hurt, but darling its better to know now than down the track.

Best of luck gravis
