@Chi; Thanks for the help. c: I'm actually talking to him about it right now. He hasn't responded yet though. 8C & yeah. I considered that. He's about 5 miles away. But we're both too young to drive anywhere on our own so we can't see each other.

@Nicole; xD That's so straight forward. I'll take it into consideration. ; u ; Thanks for the help. <3

i'm sorry i'm very blunt xD
i don't mean any harm but i give truth to what i know

@Nicole; Nono. No harm at all. C: I totally understand what you mean. 8D

@Logan; Thanks for the advice. ; u ; I'm still thinking about it, But I'll definitely take what you said into consideration.

-points up at boy- told ya

My parents don't know. :C My mom is very protective on dating. & she really doesn't like me dating before College. She would beat my booty if she knew. D8 My mom & dad prefer if I was with someone the same race as me. ( Sounds horrible I know ) They just want to be able to communicate with him well since they can't speak English well. :C

I would bring this up to him. Spell it out so that way he's not confused as to why you're upset about it.

If that doesn't work, then, break up with him. I'm only saying it like this because it sounds like he has no idea that he'd doing something wrong. He's following a pattern that's been set out.

Give the guy one chance, sometimes we aren't the sharpest tool in the shed and we need to be sharpened a bit before it makes sense to us. ^^;

Hm.... well I wasn't in a LDR with my current boyfriend, we lived about an hour drive from each other.. but with in the first 6 months it was like that. I was starting conversations. I finally one day told him I wanted to talk more. I didn't say much, just a little and it grew from there.
So maybe give that a shot before completely breaking it all off.
Then if you have tried to tell him what's up and nothing changes. Then you probably should let him go.

I've seen LDR and online relationships grow to something.
I've been with my boyfriend for three years now. And it has grown to a LDR.

I think it's best if you ask him. Like others say, communication is key to ANY relationship. Commitment is greater in a LDR or an online one.

You must know you partner. I take offence to people who just lump everyone and say "BOYS" do this or that. No no no. YOUR boy may do that, if you don't like him doing that... guess what? YOU have the wrong boy, simple.

My bf always is the one to start the conversation, even when he knows i'm sleeping. He always pays attention to my demeanour and can tell when I'm sick, angry, serious, sad, happy, etc. just from my facial expression or typed words alone. AND this is a LDR... Been with him for almost 1.5 years.

Don't be asking strangers about YOUR boyfriend. We are not dating him. YOU are. Dating is to experience and learn more about the other person. Communication is to aid that. We can't tell you if you're growing apart. Only you can.

Communicate to find out. Because if you don't, to him, this break up would seem like it's coming out of NOWHERE because you all didn't talk about it before and try to work it out.

Every person is different, every couple is different. Don't listen to others who are generalizing.. learn 1st hand for yourself.

Meeh~

I've just found that a lot of relationships die because of lack of communication and assumptions based on other person's opinion.

If you know your partner well enough, you should know what you can allow them to do.

If your partner liked to sleep around before you got together, then that's obviously going to be a flag point when you're together.

But if they never did that, why assume that they will??? Because other people did?

That's beyond stupid, and that kind of thinking will cause issues.

The only people suitable to ask other than your partner themselves, is their family, friends and exs. People who KNOW the person you're talking about. Not us. I don't know him. =/

If it turns out he doesn't initiate convo with ANYONE (like me. I don't start convos with ANYONE not family, friends, whoever), then your issue is an not a problem. He just doesn't like to start conversations. Doesn't mean he's not interested in you.

But if he starts conversations and texts OTHER people all he time... just not you. THEN you have a problem.

No use assuming things. Find out all the facts. Also... if you have to ask, you probably don't really know the person you're dating's personality =/

I agree with Duchess. You really need to talk to him, Ao.

Again, we don't know your boyfriend, so we really can't really say much on the situation. Long Distance Relationships are HARD. They need a lot more effort put into them, and communication is key.

Say, if you talked to him about it, he said he'd try, and then nothing came from that? Then I would suggest you just break up with him. Sitting around and waiting for something to happen is NOT the way to go.

Let me ask you a question? ... In the seven months you've been dating him, has it always been this way? Or just recently? Because if its just started, then I would worry. But if its been like this, where you've had to start the conversations all along? Well then, I wouldn't worry too much about it.

But I'd still have a talk with him regardless.

And to Nicole, Who I love dearly : Not every boy someone dates online sees someone, or many someones, on the side.

Coda and I met on the internet. Dated for close to 4 years. Now we're married and have a child. :P I don't think it's right for you to speak for guys.

^ Pretty much what she said. Not every guy is the same ;]

Yeah.. you can't really judge the whole male species off of one persons actions..

Like everyone said, Duchess is correct.

I've had my guy for over five years, LDR is definitely trying but the best advice has already been given: TALK TO HIM.

It has done WONDERS for my relationships, romantic, friendship or even just relatives. Communication is the key to any relationship you have, don't try and give subtle hints, don't try and make him guess, just tell him. It'll be easier for you who won't have to go through disappointment and for him to finally know what the hell you're talking about.

From what I've read though, the fact that you're considering it because he simply doesn't initiate conversation is kind of answer enough. Everyday people grow, and everyday you have to get to know them. Don't ever stop because they don't ever stop changing.

Your sexism angers me.

It angered me too. ^^;
