Seeing my boyfriend

Try not to worry about finances too much, respect him for what he does for you and allow him to respect you for what you do for him. Its likely he would enjoy as much a walk in the park as he would a night on the town, so long as it is spent with you.
If he likes to treat you, allow him the pleasure of doing so. I am sure you would do likewise if you could and would not want him to feel insecure about it.:A:dance:1+1+1=1:dance::A
"Marleyboy you are a legend!"

Your mum sounds a lovely lady, things like washing, family meal, things you do as a family, I'm assuming he satys with you when he comes down to Cardiff, so think of it as a longer break.
I don't know the area (sorry) but have look at local papers for special offers, on-line, picnic, the little things that make the difference. xxxx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx0 -
When you say leave little notes on his desk, did you mean at the hotel or at work?

Tonight he texts me saying work are sending him down for a month to start a new project in our office. and he will upgrade the room to a bigger one and I can stay with him for a whole month...
My mum says I should enjoy the month with him, but at the end seeing him go back on the train will rip me apart, I want the month to last but scared for the end. I know this is a jumbled mess. maybe someone can help me unjumble
a - do you WANT to stay the whole month with him? You don't have to just because he says so
b - you might be happy to see him back on the train after a month in a hotel room.If you haven't got it - please don't flaunt it. TIA.0 -

I wouldn't want to make him feel insecure at allI know he doesn't mind. I am liking the park idea though.

Do not do this at work - it's totally inappropriate.

I am 21 and he is 25. We have been together since 5th July 2011 So about 14 months.0 -
Meh, surely there has to be some kinda long-term plan here?
You've been together more than a year, seem happy etc and life's too short to be apart from people that make you happy.
This month seems like a great chance to test-drive how the two of you cope with being together all the time...0 -

My mum said the same about the test drive. I do get a bit panicy about it though.0
