That's definitely a tough and scary situation that I've found myself in a few times. These other peoples' advice about being yourself is definitely important cuz they gotta love you for you, otherwise you gotta fake your whole life and that's no fun. Plus, being yourself with a girl is fun and encouraging since they will help to build you up if they're the right kind of girl. And work on having fun too. Be spontaneous sometimes too. That's not always easy, but in my experience, a lot of girls like that. Save up to visit her and what not. Then just let her know you're visiting one day! But you definitely need to make a conscious effort to try and keep her too. If you are actively trying to work to make her happy and such in whatever that may be, I'm sure she'll like that! It's definitely worked for me! If ya have any questions, you can PM me and I'd be happy to help.
