Love is a living thing, like a plant or an animal. It needs care and feeding. It can be really hard to maintain a long-distane relationship. Especially in an age when we're used to everything being instant, it's harder to wait.

And also like a living thing, love changes and grows over time. That means that sometimes it's not as passionate as it was at first. If it was always passionate, then you wouldn't enjoy the intense times as much!

Because you know that this guy is really someone special, you probably should allow this relationship a chance to mature more; Don't give up yet. And try not to overthink. :hug:
 
:nod: If you find the right person, you can outlast the distance. But it takes work and serious commitment.
 
Heey guys, how are you doing? I'm kind of new here, I made an insane post a long time ago (hopefully no one will remember it :lol: ) but hey, now I'm more conscious.

So, I'd like to know how do your family treat your partner, and how do your partner's family treat you?

At the begining my family started loving him, they always asked about him, they were just really supportive, you know, but lately my mother started picking on him, she doesn't even greet him when they two meet :( this is making me feel really sad and desperate, because if it wasn't enough, she's now trying to put my father agains him, too.

On the other hand his family treats me like one of them ever since they met me, I feel more like home there than I do in my own house.

I would like to know if any of you go through this too, or if you did, and how the situation was resolved.

Thanks guys.

McAwesome, yeah I can imagine how hard it must be to be friends with an ex, it must be difficult to get over everything both went through, specially if the break up is recent.
 
Lemurian Break ups can be very hard, but your ex should have gotten the message thatyou don't want to be with him.

Bekka- Well that's good that you found someone that makes you happy, you deserve to be happy :hug: Yeah, but it's not always easy to go from being a couple to just friends. Randi and I had that problem when we broke up for a couple months.
 
You really shouldn't think the problem is you.. because for a relationship to fail it usually takes two to make that happen. When I broke up with my ex girlfriend... who i thought to be the love of my life, someone i'd die for and give up anything for.. I thought it was me who destroyed us until it finally hit me that she did a lot to me she probably did more to me then I did to her.. and sometimes it's just how life works out... Now I'm with someone even better and it's hard to think how I ever thought my ex would be it for me.
 
hihihhi thanks :blush:. she was SOO surprised she couldn't stopped giggling and blushing. got some action later, though :eyebrows:
 
I wish there was like a textbook on how to know if someone's romantically interested in you :lol: It's frustrating to try to read signals and stuff.
 
She text me last night about it. She was sorry how she acted on me. That she should let her heart pick for her.

It's okay Carol. There's always "More Fish in the Sea" for me. I think it was our differences and his family did it in for us.
 
No we really weren't, there was too much to sort through with us and it was just best for us to go our separate ways. Though I wanted to be her friend sadly we are not and cannot. But who I'm with now is something totally different to what I've experienced and I'm not letting this one get away.
 
Just popping over to ask the opinions of some other people, I need another perspective!
This is to people in long distance relationships, I've been with my boyfriend for almost two years now, he was my first serious boyfriend. This year we've both gone to university in different cities and while we see each other a lot and it's always great when we're together, when we're apart I just find myself not as bothered.
He is the perfect boyfriend so romantic sweet, funny, and so understanding. And I feel like I would completely regret it if I broke up with him because I would never find anyone like him. This sounds naive seeing as I am only 19 but I know other guys and friends boyfriends and none of them are like him. But I know that's not a good reason to stay with someone, because I don't think I'll find someone better.
However the passion (on my part) just isn't there as much as it was, but we have been together for a while, so is this normal in a long term relationship that is also long distance? Sometimes I think I'm just overthinking because we are still passionate, it's just all the times we aren't together I just have doubts. I probably link physical proximity to emotional closeness.
Just wondering as I have nothing to compare this to and none of my friends have been in a relationship this long or are doing long distance!
 
I can understand where your coming from Louis. Trust me, Ive been in her shoes as well when it came to one of my brothers exs though I never stepped in and called her names. The thing with my relationship is, sure me and my boyfriend have problems but we dont treat each other badly at all. We had problems like any other couple would, an agruement from time to time but we communicate and work things out. Ive been with my boyfriend for over a year and I have tried to get to own his sister. We are nice in front of each other but when we arent around, she doesnt like me. I will still try to get along with her and dont start drama but Im not going to kiss any butt especially when someone is disrespecting me and calling me names. She should respect that me and her brother are in the relationship together, I can respect the fact that she wants what is right for him but thats not the case in this situation. . He should be able to think for himself and know whats right for him. Thanks for your opinion though, I appreciate it.
 
^I say it's gonna happen when it needs to happen... You really can't hurry love. And trust me, it all pays off. :D



Tell me about it. :sigh:
 
I'm 23 and never had a boyfriend either :( Sometimes it really upsets me, sometimes I don't care, depends on the day :lol:
