Dear Miss Emily:
 Ok, I'm 18 years old, well me and my boyfriend got into this little argument, and we were talking about his job. He is a firefighter/emt. Well, that kind of job scares me and I let him know that. Then I got upset because he didn't wanna talk, so I asked one of my guy friends for help, and it actually put me in a better mood. I think my boyfriend got mad because I asked my guy friend for help. And then 2 days ago he told me he was done with the arguments. I told him I was sorry and asked if he could forgive me, and he said he didn't know but most likely will. Last night, I asked him if me and him are good again and he said he has to think. I talked to his mom and she said that my boyfriend told her that things were better, but he is just busy with his job. And everytime I wanna text him he tells me he is tired, or if I wanna call him he says he can't talk right now. I texted him 2 times, today, but he never texted me back yet. Help me? What should i do?

-------------------------------Miss Emily's advice----------------------------

His job as a firefighter, and EMT is a noble job, a hard job, and a hell of a lot of blood, sweat and tears go into it. You may be scared that he has this job, but it's his career. You'd better get used to it, or move on to a guy who has a job that you find acceptable. He probably thinks you want to control his life and, in a some way, that seems to be the case. To pester him about this, indefinitely, will only drive him to end it with you for good. Again, accept what he does, or break up with him. But don't be foolish enough to think he'll choose you over his job. Apologies are great, but you must mean them. I'm not saying he's the greatest thing since the cell phone, but in this one area, I'm on his side.
