JellyBeen Posted May 30, 2014 Posted May 30, 2014 Hi everyone! So I have been dating this guy for 6 months now.(the first 3 month was long distance. This is my first relationship and I was surprised it survived!)We hangout 1/2 days during the week, and spend weekends 24/7 together Sometimes he have to go to work on sunday but it's a demanding career. Went to his office once with him on the weekend and a lot of his colleagues were there.scary. I've applied to a couple grad schools before we started dating, and I didn't got in schools that are close to where we live. I bought this up one night and we talked about it. He said he doesn't care where I'm going, he really likes me and we can make it work. I have some major trust issues with people because some family conflicts when I was younger, but I do much better with him then anyone else. Sometimes he'll just sit there stare at me and smile. He kept telling me how lucky he is to have me around and how he really likes me ( both of us still haven't mentioned the big L word though). I enjoy spending time with him a lot but sometimes I do feel insecure because he's really busy. I know I'm probably being ridiculous but sometimes we make dinner plans and he would be stuck at work.( he'll call as soon as he's done and see if I wanna hangout) and I feel like I'm competing with his work. I am not sure if long distance is going to work out if he's so busy, since it will be hard to visit each other !! Another thing is that he broke up with his ex 2 years ago when they were in a ldr. He told me it has nothing to do with the distance, his ex was just ridiculously jealous all the time and constantly accusing him of cheating with girls at work (and for thd nature of his industry, there are not a lot of girls at his work lol....) So I don't know what to do. Grad school is a more than five years commitment, and I've seen people maintained their ldr and finished their degree. I'm new to the whole dating thing and here comes the ldr challenge. I'll be heading to school in 3 months. Can you guys give me some advices???? Thankyou so much in advance!!!!

But sometimes I have trouble taking his words serious. For example he said we should go travel some time for 2 months now- nothing happened because he can never have a weekend without going to work.
