Hey guys, I'm new to this forum and decided that I need other people's opinions about my situation, hopefully it will help me understand it better. I have been in a long distance relationship for almost two years now with a guy from Canada, I'm from Europe, we can only meet every six months and we have no other way but to wait for other 5 years before closing the distance cause of my university situation. It's not easy, but we both are willing to make it work. Recently my boyfriend has found himself a new job, he's moving to a bigger city with more friends and more activities. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy about it, but at the same time it scares me. He's the type of person to never text or call when he's doing something different from being home, and lately he's been really busy at work, he's meeting new people, plus now he lives with roommates, so there's always someone around. And our time difference is 5 hours, so when it's his evening I'm asleep. That leads to us not talking for few days in a row, or just talking with 10 messages per day. He doesn't seem to think that it's a big issue, but I feel that this kind of communication is not enough for me, I want to be able to share my experiences with him, I wan't to talk to him when I'm having a bad or a great day, and now it's just not possible anymore. I can't help feeling sad and disappointed. My question is, how does this look from the outside? Am I too needy and should think less about myself, after all he's usually busy working and has a lot of responsibilities, or do I actually need to talk to him about the way I feel? I understand really well, that even though it's LDR, you can't be glued to your phone all the time, and sometimes there's just no time to text, but have no clue how to not feel sad when he's not there. How often do other LDR couples communicate?
