Long Distance Relationships.
People ask me all the time, “How can you handle being with someone who lives so far away from you?” The answer, I guess, is simple: I love him. There’s no better explanation, and that’s what I tell everyone. People that I tell about my relationship with a boy in California seem to think that it’s the hardest thing in the world for me to deal with. It’s almost the complete opposite.
I don’t find the relationship hard at all, because I love him. He’s the best thing that has ever happened to me, whether he’s in California or not. And when I do get to see him, it’s just going to make it that much better. I can easily stay with him because of the fact that every day I’m without him, I can look forward to the day that I’ll be with him. Nobody understands how that’s enough.
Maybe I don’t understand how that can be enough, either. I went into a relationship knowing that it would be difficult at times, but with a hope that we could work through whatever fate decided to throw at us. So far, this has been more than true. Anytime we’ve fought, we’ve gotten through it with barely any trouble, compared to some long-distance couples I’ve seen. That in itself is enough to amaze me.
I laugh at people who complain about having not seen their boyfriends in a few days, or even a few weeks. I don’t laugh to be offensive. I just find it funny. I think about what those people would do if they couldn’t see their boyfriends for several months, maybe even years at a time. I wonder whether they’d be able to handle it, and then I value myself for being so strong about it. I do realize, though, that it’s not all me – the fact that I love him probably makes it easy for me to go through anything in the world for him, no matter what the cost.
So I guess that’s pretty much all I have to say. Why’d I write this? Good question. I get bored. I think about things. I type them out in an attempt to give people a little insight into my head. This blog had three or four drafts that had nothing to do with what it actually turned out to be. My thought process is a little crazy sometimes, which is why it can lead itself around in circles before it ever finds a stable topic. And yeah. That’s it. Thanks for reading? :\
