Either stop staying on the phone all night or call every other night for just a few hours. I know you can lose track of time when you care for someone, but you do need to balance your personal life and your academics. Before you say I dont know about this because Im an adult, it gets harder when you are in college like I am.

Answer 4

I can tell you this is the ultimate death of many relationships, and the problem is, people do not see it coming.

You are not alone with this problem. The majority of relationships start out with extreme infatuation on both sides. One girl I dated in particular for over a year would talk with me on the phone every night.

We would do silly things like wait on the other to hang up, and then count before we would hang up. We just could not rip ourselves away from one another. These sorts of relationships fail when the infatuation wears thin. You have run out of **** to talk about, so when that infatuation does run out, your heart tells you that maybe all the sweet talk was just that. Talk...

Distance is needed for a long term relationship. People tend to find someone they like and hang on for dear life. It is just human nature. You must find a medium. A middle ground. It is OK to talk to each other, but keep it mind not to wear out a good thing.

I will use a favorite song as a metaphor. You hear it, love it, and can’t get enough of it. You play the song over and over. Then one day you decide to listen to something else, because that song grew old.

It is a sure bet your late night love chats, if they continue, will turn into shouting matches. You better put it in check before it gets out of hand, and or one of you gets bored.

The only way to break the habit is to do something else. When you talk to him on the phone do so to make plans for a date. Otherwise only talk when needed. Every so often have a late night conversation. But, as I stated previously, don't wear out a good thing. Call friends, family, etc. Don’t cut yourself off from the world.

There is no need to pinch him to see if he is real, and likewise for him. You don't need nightly conversations for hours to remind one another who you belong to.

Answer 5

Why not try writing a letter? When I was young, I stayed up late writing letters to my boyfriend who was at sea. I still have some of the ones he sent me, and it's fun to read them every few years and see how our lives have changed.

Writing also takes more time, and you want to make sure you're saying what you mean, so you put down the important things and let the other things go. Do it in manuscript, not on the computer. It will improve your mind, and give him something to keep.

And please, let him pursue you, too!

Answer 6

Decide that you're committed to doing that. Get out of the house and do an activity you really enjoy (i.e. a dance class, acting class, singing class, photography lessons, tennis lesson, training for a marathon, part-time job, volunteer to answer hotline calls, create a new evening ritual - one that includes something you've been dreaming of incorporating into your life "some day."

Answer 7

oh my gosh i had this problem earlier this year. it was such a strong habit! I didn't realize how much it drove him crazy. Gradually i noticed he wasn't texting me as much. or calling me. then he pretty much yelled at me. then i cried.
Now there's a guy i like that i want to call SO BAD but i CAN'T. i just CAN'T. i want to be chased. I feel like if a guy REALLY likes me, he will call. Maybe it's that way with your boyfriend? ....schedule more face-to-face. Tell yourself that he has to have a life too ya know? with the guy i was talking about earlier, I didn't realize how BUSY he was with wrestling every day and my calls were messing up his sleep schedule and schoolwork. it was bad. haha maybe my story will help! Now i haven't texted him in months and we are good friends! yay! lol! -it didn't end bad!
good luck!

self discipline--just pick a good time and only talk for a certain amount of time--which you also work out with your mom--you will see him the next day and you will have more to talk about in person

Answer 10

Remind your mother that as long as you are just talking on the phone you can't get pregnant.
