Need advice - LDR Europe USA

[Alma]

Hey guys,

so, I am new to this LDR thing. Met my bf over an online dating site in march. We are talking a lot over Facebook and we skype like 1-2 a week.
Now, the thing is, he is in the military and right now he is deployed. We can talk a lot and we did.
HE asked me to be his GF a month ago. I was sooooo happy you can't imagine. He actually said that he doesn't want to be in a relationship until we met eachother. But on that day he told me that he couldn't wait any longer for me to be his GF.

Ok. Now. Here's the part where I think I get too clingy and needy. So, last time we talked on skype was 2 days ago. Since then we didn't really talk. Though both of us were online on Facebook.
Today I couldn't wait any longer and sent him a message telling him that I would miss him. He said that he misses me too. So far so good. But the conversation didn't really get any further. I guess he was just talking to his family or friends which I totally understand. But he replied to me only with one word answers and that really drives me nuts when he does that to be honest.
I asked him if we could skype tomorrow and he said I don't know. We can try....like...we can try? We are bf and gf for only a month and he is not sure if we can skype, huh??

Well, on my birthday he said that I am the best thing that happened to him in a very long time and that he hearts me (we say heart you instead of love you, guess it's better until we finally see eachother in october..)

Guys, I am sorry for this confusing post but I am really concerned.

My question is, if he doesn't text me on facebook though both of us are online, should I text him or let it be? I mean we don't have to talk everyday...seriously not. But at least a good morning or a good night would be nice, right?

Oh, haha. Though we didn't talk the last two days he liked and commented on my pictures on FB lol if that changes anything

Ok. Thank you for reading this crap lol

Greetings from Europe and if you have any questions, ask me =)

THANK YOU

It sounds like you're reading wayyyyy too much into it, and yeah, being kind of clingy. But if you want a good morning or goodnight message, try asking him if that's something he can do because it will make you feel closer.

If he's deployed, there's probably a LOT going on that sometimes makes even that challenging. There are a lot of unique complications to being in a military relationship, but I've never done one so I can't really offer much assistance. You might want to try posting this in the military section.

I completely agree with silvermoonfairy3, but I would like to add a little something.

Though my SO isn't in the military, the time difference can make it a bit draining. I was a lot like you when I first started dating my SO. I freaked out anytime I saw him online and he wasn't talking to me. I would worry that he was talking to someone more important than me. And I worried about messaging him too much and scaring him away.

So I finally expressed my concern to him. And he explained everything he has to do and that sometimes he plays games to relax when he is stressed out. My point is, maybe you should express your concern so he can ease your worries and tell you what's going on.
