    Boyfriend moving, anxiety rising

    Hello! I'm pretty much new to the forums, but I'm not so new to an LDR relationship (been with him happily for three years).

    Thing is, my boyfriend and his mother are in the middle of moving. They would still live in the same apartment, just on the bottom floor. However, their kitchen isn't done being renovated, so he's eating with his grandparents for a bit. They have a computer so he said that he could get on it somedays and speak with me. Trouble is, he said he would do this the night that he moved out and he hasn't. He did forewarn me though and I told him that he can take his time in getting the internet connection back because I know it takes time to move. I'm starting to get extremely worried that something might have happened to him (accident or worse). I'm trying really hard to think of the positives but my anxiety is making it difficult. It's like a huge test is thrown upon me and so far I've been keeping myself occupied from thinking the irrationally worst. Trouble is, I miss him terribly right now. Am I starting to become selfish? How can I cope with the anxiety just threatening to make me a massive worry-wart over possibly nothing? By the way, how long would it normally take for someone to get their internet connection back? (if I sound extremely bratty for asking that, I apologize)

    How long has it been since he started moving? And I am assuming internet is the only way you two communicate? You are not becoming selfish, it is just anxiety. Just keep yourself busy in the mean time and distract yourself. It depends, my friend just moved into a new apartment and she was not going to get it until 5 days later. I have found with internet companies you usually have to wait a couple days for them to come out.

      It has been approximately three days since I last spoke with him (in his time zone, it'd be four days). And yes, the computer has been our primary source of communication since we play games together on it.

      And right, I'll try to busy myself more. I just hate to go back into thinking of negative scenarios, especially when I've just started to learn to think positive. I don't want to fail in that. =(

        Yeah just think positive! Remind yourself that he said he might not have internet for a bit. Who knows, maybe his grandparents internet isn't working right now. Try not to worry I am sure you will hear from him soon! I used to be a huge worry-wart and learned not to worry about what I cannot control. Keep busy, only think happy thoughts about your SO
