distance.

Why does the distance not affect him like it affects me? I want to be able to deal with it better. I want to be able to focus completely on my school work and not think about him too. (well you know what i mean) I don't understand. Maybe it's because I keep thinking about a future with him. I know that he's graduating this semeseter, and

Awkward to post a comment.. perhaps... but TRUST ME... distance is not going to be easy. I would know. If you're anything like me you miss him like crazy because you do love him and you are so used to spending time with him and being around. But you almost feel helpless because you have no clue what life is like for him and it feels as if you aren't a part of it-- reality is, you aren't helpless.. you trust him with your life and know that nothing bad is happening, its just your negative thoughts kicking in because you want to just be with him so badly... just sit around and do nothing with him.. but you can't. And you still are a part of his life... and he probably thinks about you constantly... you just don't know it. Boys have different way of handeling their emotions sometimes. I would love to tell you that it gets easier.. but it's hard. I got diagnosed with depression... I couldn't stand it... and I handled the distance the complete wrong way. I didn't know how to act because I went from seeing him every day.. to getting lucky

"It doesn't help that he is handling the distance so well, because I end up reading that he doesn't care that much. I know that's not true. At least I really hope it's not. But it's still so frustrating. I feel like the needy, dependent one in the relationship, instead of an equal. I don't like it, but try as I might I haven't been able to fix it."

Yea. Yea. I definitely understand that one. Wish I didn't, and wish it wasn't happening to you either. Hopefully things will get better for you hon. I'm really glad you'll get to see him Friday. Just hang in there!

Thanks
