I need your advice. My boyfriend and I have a long distance relationship and we'd be texting and he'd randomly stop replying for 5 hours. He either fell asleep or went out but I got upset since I felt that he should've told me he was busy so I wouldn't have to keep waiting for his reply. Now he keeps saying he's a horrible boyfriend and that he only makes me cry or mad or sad. He thinks I deserve someone better but I only want him. I keep trying to move on from the situation but he can't let go

Okay…I really hate how much emphasis this generation seems to put on texting. Texting is not even a real form of communication. All of this “if he doesn’t text me first it means he doesn’t love me” or “he didn’t answer, he must want to leave me” nonsense is really unnecessary. Neither of you should have gotten upset that he didn’t answer back. Things happen! Something came up, and that should be the end of it. Try talking on the phone at night or something instead, and you won’t have this problem.
