Should I let it go?

Hi me and my boyfriend have been going out for 8 months, we are really serious about our relationship we live 3 hours away from each other but we do meet every 2-3 weeks as much as possible I love him very much and I know he loves me I know we are both in love an couldn't live without each other but we seem to argue a lot. I don't know whether this is just brought on cause we miss each other a lot. But he lied to me about where he went he told me he went to a nearby town to buy something turns out he went to Scotland (I live in Scotland he lives in England) he didn't tell me til we met next I can't seem to forget it and its reay upsetting me. I keep causing Arguements I love him but this has upset me. I have lied to him before about things but nothing like this. He said he didn't tell me cause his mum couldn't find out but he should know me by now not to tell anyone I never have told anyone anything he's told me I just don't know why he didn't tell me til two or three weeks down the line o fee like hes telling me cause he has a guilty concious and feels bad but he is denying it he said he wanted no one to know and only told me then cause he didnt want to keep it from me, but at the same time he did keep it from me for a number of weeks and now i dont know if i can trust him fully, it's rely upset me i love him so much I know if I was to do the same he would be angry at me and upset I just feel like I'm over reacting a little but shouldn't we know each other and what were doing as he always wants to know what I'm doing Etc which I don't mind I like him knowing but the fact he didn't tell me he really upset me now and I don't think I will get over it for a few weeks.

You say you only meet him every 2-3 weeks. If he wants to cheat on you, that must be very easy. It seems unreasonable to me that you get your knickers in a twist over such a trivial matter.

 

Long-distance relationships are never healthy. I've been in a few and I was experiencing similar things like you (we used to argue a lot despite the fact that there were genuine feelings between us). Ask yourself why you prefer being in a long-distance relationship instead of finding something local. Maybe you are in love with the idea of being in love, but value your independence a lot more than being with someone who would demand your physical attention on a daily basis.
