I'm currently in a long-distance relationship with my boyfriend. Lately, we've stopped sexting, and when I asked him why, he said it's because he might be tempted to pursue other women since I'm not physically around.
That really threw me off. I’m trying to understand where he's coming from, but it also made me feel insecure and confused about our relationship. Is this a common feeling among men in long-distance situations? How do you manage physical and emotional needs when your partner isn’t nearby?
Would love to hear honest perspectives.
EDIT: I am 20F and my boyfriend is 23M. Been dating for 1 year 4 months and the distance will end after I am done with my studies.
