How do I stop feeling lonely in my relationship?

Im 21 and I love my boyfriend we've been going out for 3 years. a few months ago he joined the sheriffs department and was gone at training for well over a month. We had been having troubles but the break from eachother made us realize how much we mean to eachother. But as soon as he came back he left again. I only had him and no other real friends. He started his cop work but it's far away in another city. He lives out there 5 days a week I only see him a couple hours 1 day week and it's hurting me. It doesn't help that when he sees me he's a complete Jerk for no reason and says it's because of the stress of work. I find myself growing Attracted to other guys and I don't know why. I just feel so alone and instead of having a partner to lean on I'm all by myself. I don't war to feel this way. What do I do .

    I worked for a major airline and can tell you long distance relationships never work. If he stressed at work doesnt mean he can take it out on you. Imagine if you were married to him and were subject to that kind of abuse daily? Time to move on.

    Well, that's really difficult. You don't want him to stop his job but you want him around more. I think you should talk to him about how you feel. You can't feel like you have no one around & then be treated badly when he is around. It's really important that he knows how you feel about this situation. Good luck!
