28 year old woman, no children. Been dating an OTR truck driver for 5 months. He’s been a driver the whole relationship. When we first started dating, i was able to see him once a week or once every other week. But those days are gone.

It’s been about 3 weeks since I’ve seen him last and i am struggling! I thought a “long distance relationship” would work for me, because i hate being smothered.... that was until i met him! I love his job, i spent a week on the road with him and i see why he loves it so much. He works for a great company and it pays really well.

We talk about the future, kids, and all that. But i would be lying if i said I’m not a little worried about basically raising my future children alone. I stay pretty busy, but i find myself wishing i could share those moments with him.

Any advice on how to be a better understanding gf? Because honestly, he’s the best thing that has ever happened to me and i want to be as great to him as he’s been to me.

I’ve read about women being their husband/bf’s peace, and i want to be that for him.
