I waited until it was after midnight so I could say…

2 weeks from today I shall be in the arms of the most handsome man in the entire universe. Gah, I love him so much and I know these two weeks are going to drag by but it’ll be worth the one month and 5 days I get to spend with him. My sweet prince.

my boyfriend and i

so this is my boyfriend and i. we’ve been talking for 6 months and together for almost 3. he lives in michigan. i live in california. 2000 miles pretty much.

early this morning he left to go back home. he was with me for 10 days. i got to sleep beside him, play games, watch movies, and show him some of the beautiful places and cities of california.

i never thought that i would ever be in a long distance relationship. i thought they were too hard to handle and i was right about that. it really is very hard to handle. but he’s amazing. and he’s worth this.

our relationship is still really new but i feel like we just clicked. he really gets me and even though we are different in some ways, we’re also very a like. we’ve got the same kind of humor and he seems to always say what i’m thinking.  he also notices things about me that i never noticed in myself before.

to be honest i wasn’t so thrilled about even trying this out, but one of my best friends is in a long distance relationship with his best friend.  she’s been out to michigan to see them a few times already and she wanted my boyfriend and i to start talking to each other because she knew we’d really get a long.  i didn’t like the sound of the idea and when she began to call him i tried to get out of her car.  she locked the doors, told me to calm down, and to just let it happen…”he’s awesome and he’s just like you, just talk to him. if you don’t want to go through with it still after talking to him, then i’ll leave you alone. but give it a chance.”

i’m so happy that i gave it a chance or else i wouldn’t have met my new best friend and boyfriend.

it’s been a long day. and i’ve cried a lot because i really miss him and the first time watching him leave was painful. i didn’t want to let him go and he had to continuously assure me that everything will be okay and that i’ll see him through skype, we’ll talk on the phone, and everything else we had been doing before he came to visit. and of course he was telling me we’re going to see each other soon….but it still hurts a lot. i’m glad i found this blog though, it’s nice to know that there’s so many others going the extra 100-1000’s of miles to be with someone.

I do this with Daniel all the time. Doing it tomorrow actually. :) -Chyenne

Only “ugly” people are in LDRs?

Ahem. This is my boyfriend and me. 

Not to sound self-centered, but…we’re pretty hot. And we’re 500+ miles away from each other. 

It’s just like any other relationship, anyone of any level of attractiveness, ethnicity, or sexuality can be in one.

I’m not normally one to get mad at stupid assumptions, but come on now.

I’m with my girlfriend right now. She’s sleeping beside me and the feeling I’m getting, knowing I’m going to wake up next to her, is incredible. I’ve waited 6 months for this. Words can’t possibly describe how much I love her. Ok, goodnight. Sorry if I’m absent for a few days.

She had a lot of stuff going on in her life that she needed to deal with and sort out, so she resigned from being an admin. You can follow her on her personal: theresnowheretohide

So, my boyfriend and I have been together for seven months. We’ll get to meet in seventh months, not too shabby, right?

Well, we talk every day. All day every day. He’s five hours ahead of me and he wakes up, tells me good morning, and then when I wake up I say good morning and then we email back and forth from our phones (so it’s a lot like texting) until he goes to sleep.

Recently, we’ve been sort of…persnickety with each other. And today he left before I woke up to go to a music festival that he’ll be at for another hour yet.

And I’m really, really tempted to tell him that my plans got pushed sooner to give us a bit of a break. I think 24 hours away might do us some good. 

But today is his birthday. :(

Is this a totally shitty idea?

——————-

Since it’s his birthday… yes. This would be a totally shitty idea. I would be more than upset if my boyfriend decided not to speak to me on my birthday. It seems like your only problems are that you’re being snippy with each other, and that happens, but the way to avoid that isn’t by separating yourself from him. The best way to be on the best terms with your SO is by talking things through with them. I think you’ll only make it worse if you carry out your plans.

If he doesn’t want the relationship, then you can’t press him for it. As much as it sucks, maybe it’s time to let him go..

I’m not too sure what you’re talking about… Care to explain?

-Maddie

I need to tell…

Then tell? -Chyenne
