anniversary

[jeezitsjacki]

SOo this is kinda a vent and just some imformation about my personal life... read if you want, but no hard feelings if your not interested!

november 16th is my one year anniversary with my boyfriend... ya to some not a big deal.. but it is for me. We were together for 3 months before, broke up, then got back together. This is the longest and most meaningful relationship I have ever been it. As some of you may know in August he left for college in Iowa (I live in Wa) It has been very hard being apart.. especially going to be on our one year. He hasnt come home at all, and the only time I will get to see him is in December, we are going to Disneyworld with my family. At some points I hate the fact that he is gone and think it would be easier if we waiting till he was here... but I know the rewards of seeing him will be wonderful. Just to inform you all.. this is not just a kid relationship. I do love him and we plan on getting married eventually.

has anyone else had to deal with long distance, long term relationships? How do you deal with it. I have sent him a couple letters in the mail, and some cookies, which is fun, but any other sugguestions?

PICK ME!

I was in a long distance relationship formerly and it was HARD. I know exactly what you are going through. We were together for two years and it was a serious relationship, we were engaged and everything.

It is so hard, we wrote letters almost every day and talked on the phone all the time. There is no way to close the gap. Sometimes we would watch the same movie at the same time so it was like we were on a date when we couldn't actually be there for each other.

It's a struggle, but if you love him and want to marry him, it will pay off. It's such hard work, but I think it really makes you appreciate the time that you get to spend together. You'll be seeing him soon and forget all about him being gone. And for when he's gone, just remember that every day that passes is one closer to you being together and not seperated.

Happy Anniversary!

Aw, My boyfriend and I will be celebrating one year on January 5th! Don't think it's not a big deal, I think one year is a huge deal, particularity because I don't normally last this long in relationships lol.

All you can do is keep on waiting and cherish the times you are together.

Happy one year!

Jeez:

First Off: Happy Anniversery! (Late)

2nd off: I think that long distance relationships can & will work if both in the couple but in 100%. Yep I said 100%. Like Mandy said, your happy & you love each other & have many of the same plans it will be well worth it in the end.

I have never had my luck with long distance relationships, but I have known many who have!! I wish you the best of luck & keep positive.

Remember: Life gets in the way sometimes & we forget some of the "biggest" events. Give him a little slack, (if you feel that he just totally didn't blow you off) he may just have got caught up in "life". Hey it happens to me all the time! ;)

I hope you and he have a Happy Aniversary, even apart.

I dont know what to tell you. I live with a man who pops in and out once a week, but Im used to it. I know its different, but if the relationship is strong, it will survive. ((HUGS))
