Ok, I need some advice. My girlfriend is an HB9 and we've been together a couple of months. When we met she was really into me but I was going away to sea for 5 months. She said she would wait for me and we would talk every day and make it work. She said she would be there for me and gave me her favourite necklace and said I could give it back after my contract to show she was going to wait for me.

I've been on the ship for over a month and she is becoming more and more distant. She never calls me anymore and on MSN she stops talking in the middle of a conversation. I got really mad at her last time she did this and sent her an angry text saying that this is getting too one sided and she isn't making any effort. She didn't even reply. I think we are still together because she hasn't changed her relationship status on facebook to 'single' but we haven't spoken since the day before yesterday.

How do I proceed?? I want to stay with her but I need to keep her interested and get her to make more effort. Should I freeze her out? She is being stubborn and making a point of not talking to me. Please give me some advice!
