Being a woman that is in a long distance relationship it's hard to keep the best attitude. I see couples shopping together and just want to trip them! But when my friends tell me about stuff they get to do with their man, it's like but I wana do that too! Oh you get to go to dinner with your man? Great. Oh you and your man cuddled up watching Netflix? Great. Oh you and your man get to see each other and talk all the time? JUST GREAT! I want to scream 'I don't care' but then, what kinda friend would I be?
But honestly it's hard. It sucks not being able to have my man around whenever I want him there. And the worst part is when I need him there! Like what if someone is bothering me and I need him to get em off my back? Gota deal with it alone. What if I have something heavy I need him to help me move? Gotta break my back doin it on my own. What if I can't reach something? Gotta use something to get it down on my own! What if there's a huge spider I need him to kill? Gotta kill it on my own(which I would have to do anyway, he's scared of them but don't tell him I told you that)!!
Now to the previous paragraph... If I needed him he would get here. And I'm sure I've got plenty of friends that would help me move heavy stuff and reach stuff in high places too. It was jus a point I was making :)
However the negative parts will probably always outweigh the good simply because doing a long distance relationship is challenging. Speically if it's a new one. Trying to figure out what does and doesn't work for yall ON TOP of doing long distance is almost insane. But the time you do get to see them is that much more memorable BCUZ you don't get to see them as much. You long for their presence, their smell, to be able to actually see their facial expressions, for them! If two people equally put in the same amount of effort and are working towards the SAME goal, it will be worth it!
I know yall are probably like "why doesn't she just date a guy in town?" Because it's not that easy. Most guys around me don't give me the time of day. And I told myself I would never do a long distance relationship again. But he just caught my attention and refused to let it go. And it's probably harder on ME bcuz I've done the distance before and didn't want to do it again, but that doesn't mean that he or myself isn't worth the effort.
If you get to be with your man or woman and see them all the time, don't take that for granted. Not everyone is that blessed. Cherish that time you do get with em bcuz you never know when something may happen that you have to be apart or when God calls them home!
That's it for now loves. Be easy. Stay blessed.
