Hurts Like Hell

Dear Miss U,
So, I have been dating this girl for 7 months. Our relationship wasn’t long distance until a month ago. It hurts like hell and it’s getting worse. She likes someone else but wants me. She’s being distant and it’s hurting a lot. I love her and she loves me more than anything she only enjoys it because it’s something new. We agreed that she won’t talk to the other person again, but we need to do something new with our relationship. I honestly don’t know what to do. It really hurts and I don’t even believe her when she says she loves me… [read more]

When the Miles are Terrifying

Dear Miss U,
I met a girl in college, and we really hit it off. We spent all our time together. We did Valentines, Christmas, and etc. even did other *relationship stuff” if you know what I mean. Well she ended up graduating this year, and will soon be moving in maybe a year or so. And now she wants to cut all ties, and not talk like we used too. And it hurts, she says it’s because of the distance… [read more]

If you’re feeling insecure…

Dear Miss U,
…Recently, he has been struggling financially so I offered to help him out by sending money through a money transfer service where he can go pick it up, but he suggested I PayPal him money at around 4 am his time, then apparently PayPal didn’t support the card he was using so he texted his friend who is a girl. She gave him her details so I could send her the money, I’m confused why she would give him her PayPal details without question, it seems odd and why she was also conveniently up at that hour… [read more]

How to Decide If Being a Military Spouse Is Right for You

Dear Miss U,
…a month ago he told me he is 100% wanting to join the Marines as the Marines are a big part of his family’s history. Our relationship drastically changed after he told me. We bickered and argued over practically nothing over text, but then as soon as we saw each other on the weekends we would get on perfectly and there wouldn’t be a single problem. I don’t know how to make text just as positive as it is in person? [read more]

Cheaters Gonna Cheat

Dear Miss U,
Our relationship went downhill when she started her master degree in Sydney in March of 2018. She started to hang out with her neighbor, Kurt, like 4 times a week at least. She went clubbing and drinking every weekend. I tried to tell her my feelings and insecurity about her behavior, but she still ignored it and continued dating him. I sort of had a feeling something was wrong with her, but felt helpless because I can’t do anything… [read more]

When You Feel Like You’re A Burden

Dear Miss U,
My SO and I used to always talk, but lately I’ve been getting jealous because they are always laughing and hanging with their friends they used to answer within 1-5 minutes now it’s taking 20 minutes or more and I miss the conversations with them. Do they think I’m annoying? [read more]

Guilty Little Feelings

Dear Miss U,
Last night, a friend told me that I made out with a male friend at a party around two months ago. She thought I knew – I had absolutely no recollection and didn’t even realize I’d been drunk enough to lose memory that night (she also said I was falling over, etc). I immediately told my boyfriend who immediately placed the blame on the guy, who knew I had a boyfriend and, in my boyfriend’s eyes, took advantage of me. My boyfriend isn’t upset with me at all. Part of me thinks he’s right because there’s no way I would ever have done this sober, but I’m also completely wrought with guilt and don’t know how to handle it… [Read more]

Going Off Grid

Dear Miss U,
I’ve been in a long distance relationship with an amazing man for 9 months. I live in Utah and he lives in California. I’ve been having this extremely overwhelming anxiety about cheating. Not that he would cheat on me, but that I would cheat on him. I have no idea why, because I would never do it, but it has been consuming my thoughts and causing me a lot of stress… [read more]
