Dear Miss Emily:
So me and boyfriend were going out for like two months, and he goes to a different school, so i really don't see him. I wrestle so it takes up my time and he and I were't talking as much. and he text me the other day saying he losing feelings for me since he does't see me. He said that wrestling is getting in the way and, so, he broke up with me. He said that we should wait until wrestling season is over and then we can go back out. I don't know if wrestling is the real reason for breaking up with me. He said I mean the world to him but, then, he does this to me? I don't know what to do. Should I believe him and wait or move on? thanks,

You mean the world to him, but he means the universe to himself! But I kid. It seems a bit selfish, but having a girlfriend he rarely sees isn't a recipe "for absence making the heart grow fonder" -- at least for him, and especially at this age. Teens live in a world that revolves around school, the social life they have there, and it's hard to see beyond that. You and he were only together two months, and there wasn't an opportunity to build a solid relationship. Take him at his word, for now. If there's any other reason why he did this, you'll find out. In the meantime, concentrate on your wrestling, and do not see this as rejection. You simply aren't able to give him the attention he wants, and he's as much said so. After the wrestling season is over, perhaps you can revisit this relationship. If you do think he's worth the effort, keep in contact with him and maintain a friendship. To build on that friendship could help cement a stronger relationship if you and he do get back together.
