    so, sometimes Skype wont let me and my boyfriend talk… He’s got an android and ive got the iphone, its kind of a pain in the ass because he’s in the service and i only see him twice a year as of right now.. and Skype was the best way for us to get in touch.. but other then that its pretty good.
