I have a boyfriend that currently lives in Australia. He is never on instant messenger, to the time difference. I try to get on when it is 7-11 in the morning there, and he has gotten on 2 times this month while I was. How should I help myself not miss him?

Maybe u can try to schedule a certain time everyday where u can communicate w/ him? Try something different, like Myspace, e-mail, or writing letters by hand. Send him a surprise e-card or a package in the mail. I communicate every week w/ a friend who lives in Tokyo. I'm in CA. Our friendship has endured for years now and I'm always surprised 2 get an old fashioned letter from her. Other forms of communication can help keep a relationship alive. Can u try talking on the phone w/ him instead or send a text message? If u can't make the relationship work then maybe it's best not to have one long distance? Sometimes the distance is just too much. However, talk about this w/ ur guy- maybe he'll have some suggestions. As for not missing him, try to focus on u. Obviously he's been busy w/ something else due 2 him not being online or contacting u. So u be busy too. Go out w/ ur girlfriends. Have lunch, see a movie. There's many things to do. Have fun!

Coordinate a time to talk on the phone. It's easier, and you don't have to each be up waiting for ages.
Also, try writing letters. They will take longer, but it will be fun to get it back.
Finally, ask him to tell you when he will be on. Does he work best in the mornings or in the evening?
Basically, is he trying to make the relationship work?

If he is never on instant messenger then I would suggest that you call him. To try to get yourself not to miss him I would say just keep yourself busy. It will hopefully keep your mind occupied so as to keep your mind of your boyfriend.

long distance relationships are ALWAYS hard, but from past experience i find it easier to cope with the fact that he's not around by not always giving up my free time to see if he's on. If a gurl friend calls and wants to hang out defn. take the invite, don't stay home just incase he sign's on. Just have fun, but always keep him in mind.

Keep busy. You need to worry about yourself. Start a hobby, go walking, go work out. Go be with your friends. Have fun. If you sit around and wait and wonder when you can talk to him, you are going to miss out on a lot of opportunities. Don't sell yourself short. You will have plenty of time to make up missing him when you see him again.

Some long distance relationships don't work becuase of the time differences or if they aren't big internet people. if i were you i would break up with him and find some cutie boy locally to start crushin on!

If you've only talked to hi twice in the past month, you need to consider moving on. If he really wanted to be with you, he'd make time for you. Get rid of him, and find someone new.

Call up or set up a time via email. If he does really want to talk to you or date you, he will try hard to reach you too!

well, for starters, I take it this is a serious relationship, or you wouldn't still be dating him. The next time you get to talk to him, ask him what is the next time he'll be on... or find the next convenient time for both of you and try to get on then... : )
