Attachment Issues
Recently, my boyfriend started going to law school, so he’s a lot busier than usual. He hast to head to class straight after work Monday through Thursday. I get to see him most weekends, and I usually spend the whole weekend with him. I’ll pack a bag and sleep over at his house for the weekend and we go out and do things together etc.. The problem is when we’re not spending time together. I rarely hear from him now when I text him I won’t hear back until the end of the day, I know that he is actually genuinely busy, but because of my attachment issues, when I don’t hear from him all day, it drives me crazy and makes me very anxious. What can I do to stop being so dependent on hearing from him to make me feel better?

put yourself in his shoes he IS very busy and most likely stressed trying to do both etc.... nice thinking about you texts may give him a lift but texts expecting return and conversation may not be possible for him to fit in and in the end ADD stress ........
he obviously wants to get his law degree and start a new career....... if he is focused and committed it will go faster and smoother then trying to fit you in where it looks like he does not have the time.
enjoy the time you get ...... realize it is an investment into the future ...... and there is an goal line to cross.
Thank you so much. I really needed to hear this. I have to work on realizing that he’s doing all he can and I need to be more understanding of his situation.
