If It Weren’t For The Distance…

Dear Miss U,
I love my partner and I know he loves me more but the absence has changed our conversations to arguments. How can we get past this bitter moment? I can’t physically be with him every day but we talk on the phone and write letters regularly. How do I fill the void of me not being there or him not being here? [read more]

To Know If You Know

Dear Miss U,
My name is Cleo. I am 17 years of age and in 2015, I met the love of my life. It was a significant day in May where a guy friend of mine created a group with me and other people I didn’t know. The idea of the group chat was to meet new people. I met Sam. We spent weeks talking and we enjoyed each other, he asked me out and we have been dating since then. We have never met, never touched or even kissed but the past year and a half, it has been feeling good. He has told his mom and family about me and I am still scared to tell my mom but he is willing to wait… [read more]

Ladies in Waiting

Dear Miss U,
My boyfriend broke up with me because his depression was bigger than any problem he and I could ever encounter. It’s been 4 days since we broke up and two since we last spoke. I reached out, yes I know bad idea, but it was to clarify that I am still here for him and that I love him. This is an entirely devastating situation/circumstance to be surpassing, but I want to be able to hold my head up high and move past this. I believed in him and I. I ultimately believed he and I were going to be together forever and that I would be here for him and he would be there for me when I needed him. We’ve known each other for almost three years and finally decided to date almost a year ago, last thanksgiving. Please help me… [read more]

Testing Positivity

Dear Miss U,
I have been in a Long Distance Relationship since last year… We talk every day, and as much as possible. Even if one of us attends class, we still text each other. I enjoy talking with him and when we don’t talk I don’t feel comfortable. However, sometimes he has to leave me alone when he has something else to do, and in those moments I get angry at him even if it is not his fault. What should I do to avoid that? One more thing, sometimes we miss conversations, is that normal? [read more]

Don’t Be So Hard On Yourself

Dear Miss U,
I have been with my boyfriend for almost two years. We hit a rough patch a few months ago and spent some time apart. During that time, he moved across the country and I began the process of purchasing a house in my area. We’ve since reconnected and decided to see where things go. Some days I have a hard time not feeling abandoned. Is that something that I can speak to him about or am I best off keeping it to myself since we have decided to give this a second chance?

Of Sisters & Wives

Dear Miss U,

I have known my friend Sam for about 4 months now, and I really like her as more than a friend. She is beautiful, kind, and has a great sense of humor. I moved out of state about a month ago, and although I wish I had told her how I felt sooner, I originally thought it wold be better that way, as I didn’t know when I would see her again, and I felt that even if she did like me it would be unfair to ask her for an LDR right away. However, we’ve kept in touch and it seems like she’s interested in having a relationship with me beyond friendship. I’ve come to realize that if she wants to have a relationship, it should be her decision about whether she is ok with an LDR or not, but I’m still scared to tell her… [read more]

Do It!

Dear Miss U,
In the beginning it was great and he seem really sweet and so nice and caring. We talked here and there, and be text morning and day and night. But sometime it was hard because he works 2 jobs, and every time he gets home he is so tired. But once in a week or so, we Skype and talk or he will call and we just talk. But sometime when we talk he won’t tell me a lot of things personal wise. I have ask him if he trust me and he says he does and I try not to bug him about why he don’t like to tell certain things, I just let it go. Now he is moving here to be with me soon and I can’t wait. But I am just worried about him telling me all about him and trusting him to open up to me with everything…[read more]

All or Nothing

Dear Miss U,
Today was my first month with my boyfriend. We have been through a lot to be together before even dating. So although it might sound cheesy for some I was really excited about today. He is usually very sweet and caring so I thought he was gonna remember the date but he didn’t. Anyway I didn’t remind him of the date either but still sent him a cute message sharing my feelings. Among the words I said I mention that “I never thought I was gonna love you this way, I truly feel you are the guy I have loved and cared about the most” so then he replied and he told me “I should take it easy and control myself” and it really hurt me because all I doing was being sweet with him… [read more]

Short ‘N Sweet

Dear Miss U,
My Ex and I broke up almost a year ago. Since then he has found out that I am in a new relationship with someone whom is 13 years younger than him. He keeps sending me messages of snap shots of my current BF’s FB page and saying mocking things about him. He also starts to send me pictures of him and I and certain things he knows I like and places that we have been together. When I ask him to stop, his response is, “Is this how you treat someone you love?” [read more]

Know Your Reasons

Dear Miss U,
I live in New York and my significant other lives in the southern base of Florida. We have been dating for almost a year and everything is going well except we’ve been arguing a lot due to a lot of issues we are facing. Now, I have known about these certain issues since before we started dating, about two years ago to be exact when we were nothing but friends, but now I can’t help but feel neglected at times because I feel like he just isn’t caring about me or my feelings…[read more]
