TMichaels Posted February 19, 2008 Posted February 19, 2008 (edited) london lad, Don't want to offend you, but are your certain that your g/f really injured her foot? I know that things like that, school, work and finances are real and quite often obstacles for people to get together, but it just sounds like an awful lot of "things" keep popping up and getting in the way of you two getting together. Unfortunately, it's also true that sometimes when two people meet on-line, things aren't always as they seem. Don't know if there's any chance of this possibility in your case, but I would be cautious, just in case... Best, TMichaels Edited February 19, 2008 by TMichaels

Thank you for clarifying. Just wondering how far apart geographically you and your g/f are? Is there any chance in three months when she's recuperated that you two might be able to get together before she resumes her studies? Best, TMichaels
Author london_lad Posted February 19, 2008 Author Posted February 19, 2008 well we are bout 7hrs drive from each other and about a 1 and half hr by plane. we r tryin to see if theres a way we can meet after the 3months but as she cnt really do anythin now due to her foot she isn't getting paid as she aint working and still has to pay for her home where she lives on her own. we hope we can meet in 3months it jus gets hard at times, but i guess the best way to help at the moment is just to think about the day we can finally be together because i love her and it will definately be worth the wait. thanks for the replies

Since you are working, would it be possible for you to set aside a little bit of money each paycheck so that in three months or so you might be able to afford to go see your g/f? I am assuming you're in the U.K. -- there are several low-cost airlines -- have you checked to see how cheaply you could get a fare? What about taking the train or the bus? If you planned your trip in advance, you could also give your employer plenty of notice in terms of asking for time off... In the meantime, just try to hang in there. Talk to your g/f on-line and via webcam if you have one. I know it's hard, but if the two of you are both committed, you'll manage and when you can get together, it will be worth the wait. All the best, TMichaels
