Have you ever tried it?
I'm about sick of long distance. This is the longest we've been apart since like February-April. I'm not enjoying it.
We are Christmas people. We love the lights, the music, the reason, the hot chocolate, the ice skating...the whole season. Today marks day 14. We have 8 more to go. It's hard, no doubt about it.
I realize it could be worse. He could be overseas serving in the military. I could be further away. He could have a job that offers him little flexibility for traveling to see me. The possibilities are endless. I know this. Yet, I've been horrible to him. Imagine that. This weekend was especially rough. He was in another wedding that I couldn't attend, the rest of my friends were at another wedding I also couldn't attend, and my family was together celebrating my grandmother's birthday.
I felt 1 million miles away. I was sad. I wasn't happy, so he shouldn't be happy either. That's fair, right? Maturity at its finest.
He is the sweetest man. He doesn't get mad. I do. And sometimes? I just want him to. He is so understanding. I've tested his patience. For whatever reason he loves me. And he sticks around.
We're stuck.
We're sticking this out.
The good always outweighs the bad.
