That i have the BEST man you will EVER come across or here about!!!! He has simply made my day wonderfully beautiful and I can't even see him! Now THAT is a sign to me that he is THE best and I can never let him go!!! (sorry I'm just really ecstatic right now by the overwhelming love he's sent me all day...)
Why can you not see him? Don't mean to burst your bubble, but no one is perfect. I'm sure he is swell for you and all, but don't go getting your heart broken because you have all of these expectations now. good luck. love is always wonderful.
haha yes. thats my boyfriend/fiance/man/daddy/poppi/lover/companion/counselor.... and no we're not breaking up. ha! im in college and i go to college 1 1/2 hours away from him. so i cant c him during the week but this weekend im gonna get to stay with him for couple nights! yayyyyy
he has already fulfilled all my expectation and more...this is not some new relationship. i just wanted to express my love for him to the world. we have a long story. we talked for 10 months before dating...but even before that he had tried to date me in high school and we weren't able to cuz he was told that i was dating this other guy....dumb yes. but anywho after we had talked for so long we fell in love very easily and sneaked around to see each other all that time ( my family is somewhat racist...but my parents are gettin used to it) so now we've beeen dating almost a year and thats where we stand.
ahh well thats a cool sweet story but hey..1 1/2 hours away is nothin..hell if i had someone that close i'd be there all the time..lol
well yea...but gas is expensive...i dont have a car...and neither one of us have much money... so the life of a college student
It is about the reality that no one is perfect and this gal is expecting this relationship or this person to be perfect and meet all of her expectations etc. As she has already said he has. When we have these standards that we set for how things are supposed to go in our mind (the fairytale) and they don't go that way we get our hearts broken. I'm only speaking from experience, both personal and from watching every single other relationship known to man. There is a point in a relationship where people are euphoric and think nothing can go wrong, then someone says something or does something that the other person doesn't like and we realize that no one is perfect. It really isn't a difficult concept to grasp, we just don't want to believe it sometimes. Don't get me wrong I'm completely happy this gal is in love with her boyfriend and I'm happy that they have found a way to see each other despite the odds that she has mentioned. I am in love myself and we had to overcome a lot of hardships together including living 2 hours a part for a year. I wish her nothing but the best, but if she knows upfront or the sooner the better that there will inevitably be bumps in the road, she will be better prepared to deal with them is all. Things won't always go her way and there may be times when she wonders if it will work out. She has to have faith in love that it will, but not blind faith. This isn't a Disney movie, this is the lives of two people, there are no fairy god mothers to make things perfect.
That is ok, I'm sure you can make it work. I had to do this with Jer for a year when he moved back home after college. It was a pain in the ass to tell you the truth but I believe that our relationship is stronger now because of it. You have a computer so IM is good for chatting and the phone is nice (I'm not much of a phone person myself) and when you see each other it will be special. I don't know about public transportation where you are but that might be an option for visiting. Or sometimes people going that way might give you a ride, they have a ride board at the Uni by me and I've given kids rides a few times for gas money. Good luck with this, you seem to be very very happy.
LOL. You are too much. Disagree if you wish. I'll PM you some links of some literacy programs in your area.
anyhow.... i dunno how i turned this into a bit of controversy but we have dealt with being apart this distance last year. this is my second year of college so nothing is new. we have had a bit of up's and down's ....external issues to deal with and issues between the two of us we've had to deal with. some close calls and some times....but we're still together. we're completely in love with each other and no there is no one else out there for us. i know technically he may not b perfect...especially not to others...but i DO know...he IS perfect in MY eyes AND he IS perfect FOR me!!! I believe there is no one else there that could be more perfect than he is for me. That's all i meant! But thanks again!
that would be my fault, I jumped all over cutelildeadbear and was being harsh for no reason...so that was all my fault.. she was giving you good advice and her take on it and I jumped all over her for it cause well, cause im a moron Princessjewel, glad to see you have someone you love very much...
I am...well...speechless. I don't know what to say except thank you for this wonderful post Jewel!!! Yes we have had our ups and downs and i'm certain there will be more, but yea...i'm not leavin ya sweetheart. Man i totally don't know what to say except i love you! Now i'm going to go re-read this thread again. *smiles*
