Miss You Issues: Ghosts of College Past
Hi, I met Jenna (my girlfriend) at my school and we've been dating since my 15th birthday. We may seem young, but I promise you she is going to be my life partner. My mum has been really abusive to me, she's had me arrested on my birthday for nothing and it's hard to be happy. I've decided to go to live with my dad in England (from Australia) because I just can't take it anymore. Jenna is really upset about this. She is convinced that it's going to be really hard and I told her I know t... -
Miss You Issues: Awkward Contact
Dear Miss U, I have had feelings for this guy since 2008 while I lived in California and he's in Nashville. He's remained a constant in my life we have talked, texted and skyped on the laptop. Every time he comes around I get excited but when he's busy with school months go by. And when we talk again sometime later those feelings come back all over. I'll be attending the same college as him in the spring but, I'm scared. Should I approach him or should I wait until I have made some friend... -
Miss You Issues: Short Answers
Dear Miss U, My girlfriend and I have been in a relationship for a few months now, but we have known each other for years. I'm a college student and was home for the summer and we saw each other nearly every day, and it was wonderful. However, by the time I left for college a few hours away, she had gotten a new job and enrolled as a full time student in a community college. It's been about two weeks since I've been away and I hardly hear from her. She texts me every day but they're hardly a co... -
Miss You Issues: V Planning.
Dear Miss U, My boyfriend and I met in May and since meeting we had a 'thing' for each over the past few months I've realized I love him, although we only started dating officially a month ago. We haven't met in person yet though he's flying over to see me in November. The next time we see each other will probably be late next year. Since we met we've talked about sexual things and it is a relatively big part of our relationship, although not the main part. We are both virgins and would love ... -
Miss You Issues: Being Cake
Dear Miss U, We've only been dating for 3 months, roughly, and we have both told each other we love each other. We are best friends and have fallen in love faster than anything. It's a scary experience, especially since he has just started going to college in Arizona. We are both from the same area in California. We went from seeing each other every day to being on FaceTime every now and then and some phone calls here and there. There is barely any text messaging going on in between these conve... -
Miss You Issues: Constraints of Gender
Dear Miss U, I am in a LDR with my boyfriend for a year now. We live on 2 different continents but we have plans to move together to the same place in a year, which is not that much anymore. We meet every 3-4 months, which is probably a quite good thing for an intercontinental couple What bothers me that recently he got a female roommate, who is also his co-worker. He could not afford to stay alone financially, and he found a female roommate. We talk every day with my boyfriend, and nothi... -
Miss You Issues: Cheetahs
Dear Miss U, My specific question is should I stay with her? We were together very lovingly every day for 9 months then LDR started (military). I have seen her twice for a total of a month and a half over the last three months and I paid for the plane tickets both times she flew because she is still broke in school. She had military training herself and while gone to that she drunkenly made out with another man and then slept in his bed. I found out by seeing a conversation on her phone of her end... -
Miss You Issues: Enslaved to his Penis.
Dear Miss U, I've been talking to this guy since January. I surprisingly met him on Xbox live and found out that he lives 56 miles from me but we never have time to meet up. I still haven't seen him person. He told me he loved me first and I said it back. Now He always says he loves me and he calls me baby, beautiful, hot, but then one way or another he goes into conversations about having sex and etc. We stopped talking for two months because he said he was 'busy', but I stalked around on g... -
Miss You Issues: How It Works
Dear Miss U, My boyfriend and I have been together for 3 years and moved out together about one year ago. We enjoy cooking together, exploring the great outdoors, and sharing the best things in life. I've known for a long time that he is the one for me. The only problem is that he ships as a merchant Marine for several weeks at a time, so our time together is limited. I was able to cope with it for the past year and distract myself with friends and family, but I'm starting to feel depressed w... -
Miss You Issues: Different Wavelengths
Dear Miss U, I've been with my gf now for 7 months. We have been friends now for over a year. We meet when I was getting deployed to Afghanistan. When I finally made it home we started dating and really hit it off. I got a new job that requires me to travel. They sent me back to Afghanistan and I've been here for three months. Everything has been going ok until now. It seems like all we do is fight over stupid things. When I first got here she was really emotional and was having a hard time b...

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...
