It sounds like such a nasty thing to say, but its not something directed at my fiance. Nope, I'm not angry with him at all. Things couldn't be better between us.

Oh and yeah. UK/New Zealand is a huge gap too, so it's pretty hard being down here. :( It costs a ton of money to fly over (even for me in the business) and then the exchange rate to even do anything there is nearly triple. It's bankrupting me to visit him at all.

Man, if it weren't hard enough for us, huh? it sucks that you have to push your trip back to afford it. I extended mine which is fantastic for time with him, but terrible for money. :(

Hang in there hon, we're really hoping that the oil testing goes well for the airlines involved and that things improve soon!!
