Miss You Issues: Two Men & A Baby?
Dear Miss U, I cheated on my LDB who is underway with the coast guard, should I tell him? I will also start by saying, we fell in love online. We used to go to school together however we hadn't ever interacted. We started talking more and more every day till we realized we were in love and decided I would move there. Since he is in the US Coast Guard and I live in Europe, we knew we needed to wait for the right time for me to move there since he was also being transferred. Come summer, he visited ... -
Miss You Issues: Clashing Dreams
Dear Miss U, My boyfriend & I have been together close to 4 years now (long distance a little over 1 year). I'm graduating college in 1 year & had originally planned moving back home, to my boyfriend, family, friends & finding a job there. However, I am in the middle of an internship with an amazing company that challenges me (in a good way) & is everything I could want & more! I never thought I would enjoy what I'm doing this much & didn't ever really think about the possibility of not retu... -
Miss You Issues: Excessive Pornography
Dear Miss U, I have been with my boyfriend for 2 years later this month. He moved in with me at the beginning of last year, so has been living at our place for 1.8 years... the first year was fine we lived together. I started working away for 2 weeks home for 1 at the beginning of this year. So my question is (finally) is it normal for him to have excessive amounts of porn on his laptop - I don't think he was like this when we were living together (although I never checked.) He also has b... -
Miss You Issues: No Pity
Dear Miss U, I am a 16 year old girl who recently moved to Perth, Australia from England. We've been here for nearly 3 months. It wasn't a choice I was happy with. I moved with my family and we moved because my parents found better jobs here. Everyone seems to be happy with the move except me. I don't cope well with change and I've had issues in the past that have needed me to go to therapy classes. It helped and I still use the techniques I have learnt. The main problem for me is that I'm stil... -
Miss You Issues: Pushing For More
Dear Miss U, I live in Australia and my (now ex) lives in Pakistan. I first knew that he liked me back in 2010 when I went overseas, I tried finding him on Facebook after a year when I returned. We got to know each other and became friends. He then asked me to be his gf, we dated for two years. We talked nearly every weekend and a few week days. He was caring and respected me then. He promised me that he would ask his parents about my hand in marriage when I went to Pakistan. We had a few trust... -
Miss You Issues: Love Waits
Dear Miss U, My boyfriend and I have been dating for 4 months since February 1, 2014, we met online, and we already met 4 times personally. I am a single mom, I have a 2 year old daughter, though I'm already working, I'm studying law and I'm at my 4th year, he wants us to be together now, he wants me to transfer to his place, but I thought, to do that meaning I would have to stop my studies and look for another job. My dream is to graduate and become a lawyer.. And that would take 1 ye... -
Miss You Issues: Questionable Behavior
Dear Miss U, I have had a great couple years with my bf who lives roughly 8,000 miles away in New Zealand while I live in Michigan. His personality suits mine to a "T" and he has always been there for me but recently co-workers I have talked to have stirred my always growing worry of if I am letting this go too far when so many signs point to him being some random person. Those include him not showing his face on cam, sometimes giving me pictures of him when I have given my all (body and soul) i... -
Miss You Issues: Holding Off
Dear Miss U, My boyfriend is about to go into boot camp for the US marines in September. We're in a very committed relationship, despite how young we are. However, despite how committed I am, he wants to start a family, get married, and have me make all these crazy life changes so I can be with him, all in the next 3 years. I'd like to do all of that with him, but I need to go to college to get a further education. I'm scared I will make all these commitments with him and in many ways ruin m... -
Miss You Issues: The Beginning Of The End
Miss U, A year before last I contacted and eventually met my college girlfriend after 30 years. She and I have families now and spouses. We have seen each other off and on talked about where our lives have gone after 30+ years. She and I have 'hung out' so to speak gone to a movie, had lunches and just talked. I made plain that I was not after her for sex, not my intention. Just wanted to be friends and see her from time to time. I still love her and would love to finish out my life with her, I... -
Miss You Issues: Worst Case Scenario
Dear Miss U, I'm currently in a relationship with some who is currently incarcerated. We found each other while I was doing 45 days at the county jail. We started out as pen pals and when we first saw each other it was like love at first sight. He's now 9 hours away and we haven't lost contact in the past 1yr and a half. My issue is that I stress myself out! I feel has for writing him my worries all the time but then I don't want to fake either and pretend everything is okay. I care for him a l...

Dear Miss U, I have been having a tough time going through the distance. I love my boyfriend with all my heart, and I want nothing to come between us, but that is very difficult with my parents. My parents are very strict, I can't make any decisions in my life, and when I try to make a decision, I am usually yelled at and hit. Making me more and more depressed. The worst that has ever happened is that I have been choked by my own father by a decision I tried to make. Me and my loved one talk on...

Dear Miss U,
I recently realized I had to move away from my boyfriend of 3 months, I want to know if there's anything I need to know about starting a long distance relationship? My boyfriend knows and really wants it to work as well.
Zelda Dear Zelda, I feel the only thing people need to know about starting a long distance relationship is that you need to treat the relationship and your partner the same, regardless of proximity. That means making time for ea...-

Dear Miss U, Me and my boyfriend have only ever met once and he proposed to me to be my girlfriend through phone calls. He's currently out of town because of his thesis and his work, and we haven't seen each other for half a year. We are both Cancers and very affectionate and I know he loves me, but sometimes he does this thing every month where he says that he is tired of our conversations everyday that seemed too monotone for him. He wants me to contribute more to the conversation and I swear...

Dear Miss U, Recently you gave me advice on how to deal with the pain caused by such a large distance. It was fantastic advice and worked well but unfortunately I find myself in need of your advice again. I have been paying for a trip to India through an organization called world challenge and they are offering a once in a lifetime opportunity that could even help me get jobs etc. in the future, although it costs a lot of money and keeping up with payments can be stressful. I've also been lookin...

Dear Miss U, My partner and I both want to move in together since we have both had our fair shares of long distance relationships. He is trying to find a job here with no luck (he hates his job). I might have found one for myself in his town, and his family is way more supportive than mine. I am going to a tour around that prospective job in his town but I am dreading it. My current bosses are so nice to me. They even got my partner an interview here. My biggest concern is they just fin...

Dear Miss U, The distance just makes things hard to fix. It seems I'm being a crappy girlfriend. I haven't been the best lately. I feel it's because I have resentment held. We've discussed it & it just hasn't gotten any better feeling for me. He has issues with my sexual style compared to his, but it's mostly about what's wrong with me. The other night over Skype, I was telling him about my chiropractor appointments to help my chronic muscle tension. Since the beginning, we've disc...
