text: hmmm... depends what you really feel. If you dont want him to be dating other grlz make an effort and do an equal amount of phone calls and letters. Writing letters can actually be pretty fun, more than u think. It's a new way to express yourself to him, and u could be sweet and go all out. I have a friend that I write to(he lives across the country), and sometimes instead of emailing I'll decorate actual letters for him and stuff. I draw and send him pics, it may look corny but he really appreciates them, and I'm the only girl that really does that for him, so it's def a plus in a long distance relationship. We've been writing for 10 yrs, so even thou we're just friends, long distance relationships can still be great, and yours just sounds temperorary.\nGood luck!
