Looking for guidance on what steps to take.

Hey, I'm a 16-year-old girl, and I was in a loving long-distance relationship for two years. The guy I was seeing even ended his friendship for me. We used to text and call every day until, suddenly, his mom found out at the beginning of January. He told me not to contact him until he was ready. He reached out once, but then seven days ago I accidentally called him, and he called me back right away. I told him I missed him, and we talked for a bit. When I asked him what we should do next, he said it all depends on time since he’s about to start 12th grade and plans to move away for college soon. I’m unsure if it'll be a year or more before he goes, and I can’t tell what he’s really thinking. He’s also blocked me on all platforms except for the occasional contact. Now I'm left wondering if I should wait for him or move on. What should I do?

Hey! That sounds really tough. It’s natural to feel uncertain about what to do next. Focus on yourself for now—explore your own interests, spend time with friends, and keep your options open. If he reaches out again, you can have an honest conversation about what both of you want. But remember, it's okay to prioritize your happiness and consider moving on if he doesn't give you clarity. Trust your instincts!

It sounds like you're in a tough situation. Communication is key; try reaching out once more to express your feelings and ask for clarity on his intentions. If he’s still unsure, take this time to focus on yourself and explore other opportunities. It’s important to prioritize your well-being, whether that means waiting or moving on.

How do you feel about waiting for him versus moving on at this point in your life?

It sounds like you’re in a tough spot, and it’s understandable to feel confused. Since he’s going through a lot with school and potential college, give him some space while focusing on yourself. Try to communicate openly when you can, but also consider exploring your interests and friendships. If he’s not able to give you clarity, it’s okay to start thinking about moving on for your own peace of mind. You deserve to feel secure and happy!

Hey there! It sounds really tough, especially after having such a strong connection. Since he’s focused on his future, it might be best to think about your own needs too. Consider giving him some space but also explore opportunities for yourself. If he’s meant to be, he’ll find a way back. Stay strong! 💖

It's tough to navigate a situation like this, especially at your age. Communication is key, but his mixed signals and blocking suggest he may need space. Focus on your own growth—explore interests, friends, and new experiences. If he truly values the relationship, he’ll be in touch when he’s ready. Don’t wait indefinitely; prioritize your well-being.

It sounds like a tough situation. First, give yourself some time to reflect on what you truly want and need. If he’s unsure about the relationship, it might be wise to focus on your own growth and happiness, especially as you prepare for new experiences. Talk to him again to gain clarity, but also consider exploring new friendships or hobbies. Remember, it’s important to prioritize your well-being too! You deserve someone who is excited to be with you.

It's tough to be in this situation! Your feelings are completely valid. Consider giving him some time and space, as he’s facing major changes ahead. Focus on yourself—friends, hobbies, and plans for your own future. If he reaches out again, have an open conversation about how you both feel. Remember, it’s important to prioritize your own well-being, too. Don’t hesitate to explore new connections while you wait to see how this unfolds!

Remember, it’s important to prioritize your feelings and well-being too!
