bananarama1 Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 we just said goodbye yesterday after a month of being together, whats weird is i dont remember the whole month it went by so fast like as if it was a dream..sure i was happy every damn day..we had arguements once in a while but we love each other very much. i am not really into marriage that much but it is the only way we can be together, so we plan to fix the papers this month and hopefully i can see him again soon.. dont give up guys:bunny: it may be hard but its going to be so worth it. my SO and i have been together online for more than 2 years and ive known him for a year prior to being in a relationship with him. hes even more amazing in real life..well, much better than when we're apart. a few months ago i was giving up on it, even wanting to call the whole thing off (the trip) but i decided to give it a shot , now im sitting here with a sleep mask on my forehead, bloodshot puffy eyes and hungry tummy and missing that chubby man so much i wanna gag. the last meal i had with him was pizza and coke for lunch and that is almost 20 hrs ago.
aerogurl87 Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 Aww glad you enjoyed your trip and didn't give up on the relationship. I know what you mean though about getting close to wanting to give up. Before I went to see my SO I got cold feet about a week prior to leaving. Him and I both started getting a little antsy and frustrated with how things were going a bit haywire and creating unneccessary problems for my trip. I felt like giving up but at the moment, I felt like just saying "f**k it" he texted me and I knew that it'd be worth it. Also congrats on getting married, I think that's the only way my SO and I will be able to be together permanently also. But I'm looking forward to it, whenever that day comes.
LittleTiger Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 That's lovely bananarama1 . Well done for hanging in there. I know what it feels like to spend a whole month together and then be apart again though - it's tough! Congratulations on your decision to get married too. Footnote: I don't want to put a damper on things but I feel compelled to offer a word of caution here: be very, very sure that you want to spend the rest of your life with this man before you tie the knot - especially if you're not really into marriage. It may be the only way you can be together but using marriage as a way to jump through legal loop holes, however much you love each other, is a risky thing to do. Divorce is very painful!
MelanieLynMarie Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Awwww, I can't wait until I meet my SO in person. I know I'm going to be pretty scared and have cold feet like you experienced, but i know that in the end it will be worth it.
electricity Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 Congratulations on going for it. When you find someone who's just worth it... well. I know what you mean about visits going by just like a dream and magically seeming to forget a lot of it. I typically make notes on my phone or on my online journal (private entries, of course) of what we do when I have time, then flesh them out and add whatever details I can remember as soon as I get home. Going back to read the progression of what happens across our visits helps me a lot during our time apart. I've started making notes of our texts and IMs as well, so I can remember significant conversations without having to search through all our hundreds of conversations.
