boyfriend questions? this is my first bf so please help?
we've been together in a long distance relationship for 7 months. and by long distance i mean, i live 5 hours away from him. lately he isnt as caring as before and sometimes i feel like we dont really TALK talk, we just text a tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiny bit and then say ily and stuff. we dont have enough time to call too long and i miss our funny conversations. he's been busy lately, i know. but sometimes i wonder if he really misses me or is just saying it. today he even sent a video saying he missed me and that i was his little angel. But later tonight he didnt reply my text for an hour bc he was watching a game at his university and didnt have to curtesy to at least say he was busy ((I WAITED so yeah???????)) am i being paranoid and this is actually all normal or what?

it is normal for all younger people to be more in tuned to the life that is going on around them than to someone who is not present with them. even if you lived 10 minutes down the road this would be the case.
for a guy who is engrossed in a football game with his buddies, his mind set is to see your text and think "okay, i will answer her when the game is over and i can concentrate"....feeling there was no real urgency about texting you back. but of course for you, it was all anxiety and worry because you were waiting on the other end and not involved in anything else.
the solution to this sort of thing is to have an agreement that if one or the other of you is busy (regardless of what you are busy with because it seems like you felt a football game was not a good enough busy to put off answering you, but of course a guy would feel differently about that) you will agree that if you can't get back to one another within say 10 or 15 minutes later, to just send an response saying "busy..will text later" so the other person is not sitting on pins and needles waiting.
you have to agree not to judge one another's busy though. just accept it and give one another credit and respect each other's lives.

Well I've never been in a relationship, but from watching my friend's long distance relationship, I think have to....well...talk to him about it. It may be hard, but it may be best to try to talk to him and maybe break up...It's not a nice thing, but it's even worse to keep yourself in a relationship that's just not working anymore...
On a lighter note, how about you try to initiate funny conversations with him again? Like, putting funny in-jokes in your conversations to make him miss the way things were....
