I am falling in love with a man I met on Facebook but he is moving away next month

DEAR DEIDRE: THE man I am falling in love with is moving away next month.

I don’t know whether to tell him how I feel.

I’m 25 and he is 26. We met through friends on Facebook.

We just had the odd bit of banter until one night he asked for my number.

We then started sending texts continuously and after a month we met up.

We’re not official but he comes round every weekend to see me.

He lives a couple of hours’ drive away.

We have a real connection but I don’t know whether to tell him how I feel.

I don’t want to scare him off yet I am gutted he is going.

DEIDRE SAYS: With him moving away, you have nothing to lose – so just tell him straight about your feelings.

Long-distance relationships can be hard to maintain, especially when things are so new, but if you both want the same outcome then there is no reason why it can’t work.

There are plenty of ways to keep in touch and make you feel close.

But be sure to keep busy so you have lots of interesting news to share with him.
