I'm in a long distance relationship with my best friend of 5 years who lives in Brazil..

They aren't easy, and even though he is my best friend there are still times when I catch myself feeling paranoid, perhaps slightly jealous of his friends there who get to see him whenever they want, or just sad in general.. I get worried when I don't talk to him because I mostly am wondering if something happened to him.

I do think you need to trust him, to an extent. If he starts acting strangely, then you have some either sniffing around to do, or just asking him outright.. both ways are difficult to swallow on his side though, so take care and only use these means as a last resort.

I've noticed that when you allow the guy to contact you first, sometimes that is much better than you calling them. It makes them wonder why you haven't called. . . usually resulting in them calling you.

If you both do truly want to make it work, then it will work.. it takes effort on both sides. You can't allow yourself to get too paranoid and he can't let himself get lazy about calling/texting.. if only for the sake of updating each other on your lives and being sure nothing happened to the other person.

LDRs are tough work and require a lot of time and commitment. I'm in a LDR right now too and I have been before. I know sometimes feelings of paranoia may creep up, but you have to have trust. Otherwise these feelings will be the downfall of your relationship. Relationships are hard, but they're even harder when you can't see each other often. You have to come up with alternatives to show how much you care and to keep each other satisfied and reassured. I think also with LDRs you have to think about the future more. Talking about what your plans are and how each other fit into those plans can offer some comfort that you both have a goal in your relationship and are committed to that goal and therefore to each other. I'm not sure what you can do, but wait for him to get back to you. Maybe try to integrate yourselves in each other lives more? Have him introduce you to his friends there and vice versa. That way if you're ever genuinely worried about what's going on (like if he's ill or something) you have ways to get in touch with someone there. But, honestly, most people don't answer their texts right away. Things happen. The battery could be dying. It could be too loud where he is, so he hasn't heard it or checked it. He could be busy. And I don't mean with another girl, but just with family or friends or working out or playing a game or whatever. Bottom line, near or far, you need to have some trust in your man. He says he won't cheat, then believe him.

If the boy stated that he wants to be together with you than he has his reason not to cheat and you should trust him, but texting every other day is better than everyday because it gives you some more to talk about about what happened in the past days. You shouldn't worry, better wait till he calls or text himself.

If you trust him you should worry about him cheating.. I'm in a long distance relationship for about 10 months.. You shouldn't rush into anything talk with him more on the phone and msn for a while and see how it goes and think about what you want.. You have to be sure both of you can handle a long distance relationship and that really what you both want.. Hope everything goes well ^_^ and don't worry about the text maybe it just didn't go through

Something may of come up. Maybe he just be busy.

You have the right to worry about what's going on... But relax..do something while your waiting.

It has been 2-3 days.?

In long distance relationships you can't have doubts - because that's where it falls apart. Relationships are built on trust.

Making assumptions won't get you anywhere..

So, wait..call him to see what's up..let him explain what's been going on..on top of that..Labor day es tomorrow..some people are out with their families.
