You know what? I couldn't believe my eyes when he texted me that he doesn't even have 1 minute.

I was fuming :x
You had all the reasons to be. It doesn't look too good :( Hope you are a nice girl and he realizes fast enough that he can lose you.

There's even a deadline?

Cut the crap. Please get up, get out and get a better one. It's Friday, girl!

Get a life, and I say this sincerely. LDR or no LDR, BF or no BF, having a life of your own (family, friends, activities, hobbies, community service) is the only way to remain emotionally stable both now and in the long run. Living your life around another person is emotionally destabilising.

Very wise words. I'dda thunk you did New Warrior training... but that's for guys to understand this life view.

Thanks SE. I wish I'd had training, but I had to learn my lessons through real-life heartbreaks.

This is why LDR's don't work for some people--they give in. You really need to go out more...

...and yes I'm aware of the irony of me posting this on a Friday evening. Hey, I felt too lazy to go out; I'll do so tomorrow instead.

Then do add some value to this forum by a few more posts first!
Sorry, I will not publicly post my email address or identity here, nor will I discuss personal matters like my relationship here (but by PM or email is o.k.).

OP - if he's caucasion with a good job living in China he will no doubt be surrounded by temptation. And bearing in mind that guys from the country he is from (I won't write where as you sent it to me via PM so assume you want to keep it secret for some reason) don't have the greatest reputation for monogamy, along with the things you have written about him here, in particular never making any time for you, I would cut your losses and find a faithful guy closer to home
