<human>: To start things off, my girlfriend and I met in first year university, and instantly hit it off. We've moved faster than most couples would, already having met each other's parents at four months. I would say that we are both very much in love, and honestly I see our relationship lasting quite awhile. 

However, she lives a six hour drive from my hometown, but she is considering living in our university town for the summer, lowering the drive time to only two hours. Personally, I've never been a huge fan of long distance, but for her, I'm willing to try. Since we go to the same university, we'd be together for eight of the twelve months every year. 

But, here's where the problems start. Our christmas break lead to us both living in our hometowns for three weeks, and the time apart isn't treating us well. Honestly, I think the drastic change of essentially living together to not seeing each other at all could be a huge proponent in this. This woman is the love of my life, and she makes me a better person in every way. Personally, I've never been a big texter, and recently, she sent a text to me essentially saying that if this how much we text during our time apart in the summer, things aren't going to work. This kind of blindsided me, because I'd been making the effort to text her and skype her throughout the break. 

Overall, I have a full time job during the break, while she doesn't. This job demands a lot of early mornings, so when I get back from work in the early afternoon, I'm usually exhausted and take a nap. This leads to me not texting her until very late in the day. I shouldn't make excuses for not keeping in contact with her, but this is honestly an issue.

I've been rambling here, but I'm basically looking for answers or advice on how to deal with long distance relationships. I miss her like hell, but I don't want to act like an accessory by texting her every minute of every day. Thanks reddit!

Condense the text into a few key points
