LD = long distance

Okay, so I know I chose to be a part of this relationship. I know I knew what I was getting into, and I know I knew the chances of this being long distance. But seriously, it's getting so old. I love that having a long distance relationship has enabled us to focus on all the different areas of our dating relationship with little (very little) focus on the physical area of our relationship. I love that having a long distance relationship has enabled us to be creative in our relationship and how we show appreciation for one another.
But him being home only 4 times (fall break, thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter) within 10 months (August through May)- UGH! It's getting SO HARD! Sometimes, I feel there are so many things in each others lives we're missing out on, and so many times when I just want him here to see his face, hear his voice, and feel his strong hug.
I find myself getting annoyed when I over hear some girl talking about how much she misses her boyfriend because she hasn't seen him in like a week or just a few days, when I haven't seen my boyfriend in several weeks, months.
I have learned appreciation though for the girlfriends and wives of those who are over sees. Because they are also experiencing the bummers of a long distance relationship, except they actually have it a little worse. They not only miss their men, they worry all night and day if they'll return home safe, injured, or even alive.

...long distance...well, we've made it through two years of long distance and we only have an estimated year and a half left of long distance- although, i have no clue what the future holds-
i think we can be strong and make it another year and a half or so, though i'm sure it's going to be hard.

Dear June 9th, please come soon. Thanks, me <3
