ENsweetheart Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 I met him at a party where he was bartending and I did not drink anything. He spent the night throwing ice at me and trying to get my attention, and we ended up talking all night long. He was from Texas, I am from Colorado (we were both in CO at the time) living with his best friend from high school. He had been up here a few weeks but things didn't work out as he hoped and he had a bus ticket for a few days later back to Texas. We talked all night long and he wanted to see me the next night so we made plans and I took him hiking, something he'd always watned to do in CO. We spent an amazing night watchign the city lights from the top of a mountain, talking about everything. We spent the next few days together, and then it was time for him to go back home. But, he didn't get on that bus. He chose to stay in CO for me, a girl he had met three days ago. The next few months were amazing, I love that boy more than anything. He still had that bus ticket though, and I knew that someday he would go home. Well, he just got some news from home that he was needed, so he took the bus back to texas. I miss him so much, I can't deal with him being away. He doesn't have a cell phone, and it's an hour later there and to talk to him I have to call his parents house. We try to talk as often as we can, but I miss him soooo much. How do you deal with LDR? Is there any way to make it easier? I know that someday, I will be with him again...but I don't know when. He has alot to do down in TX, and I am in school in CO. He isn't going to move back here until he gets some stuff in order, which could take a year at least!!!!!! He has only been gone a few weeks and I can't stop thinking of him. Any advice on how to stay close when we are so far apart?
Beauty28 Posted August 29, 2007 Posted August 29, 2007 I hear ya! I know it's hard. I am kinda seeing this guy from Miami and I live in Colorado too. Anyhow, I know he doesn't have a cell phone so that takes texting out of the picture. Does he have internet? If so you two could do maybe webcam or something. If not, then could he consider getting a cellphone just for the purposes of contacting you. Because I bet you he would if he stayed behind just for you (a girl he just met). Also, what about email? Can you guys email eachother? If no email, cell phone, or internet, then the only thing you are left with is calling his parents house and writing him (which by the way I'd ask him for his address). That way you guys can atleast send eachother stuff. Because without communication.... eventually the chemistry will fizzle out not because any body did anything wrong but it's just human nature. But what ever you do.... please DO NOT... DO NOT.... be possesive and needy. Have your own life too so that your not thinking of him as much. I mean since your in school your probably have alot on your plate anyway but if that's not enough then you should take on a hobby. Keep me posted though because I'd love to chat with you since we have things in common (the LDR and living in Colorado).
LittleWingedOne Posted August 29, 2007 Posted August 29, 2007 Ive been in an LDR for over a year. A cell phone is a must I think. Texting keeps me sane. But if thats not possible.. internet, web cams, lots of phone time. Even writing letters is good. Jealousy is to be expected, but only to a point. I think that LDRs only work if you two plan to be together for good in the near future. Otherwise, you'll get bored or he will. or frustrated
