Hi All! My name's Rory, and it's good to be back on the site (I was an active member about a year and a half ago in a previous LDR).
Here's my current story:
My SO and I have known each other since high school (7 years ago), when I had a huge crush on him. I had a bf at the time, so i didn't act on it. We had friends in common and over time began to hang out more and more.
After high school I started dating his best friend. At this point I no longer had a crush on him, and considered him one of my best friends. We hung out all the time ,and often joked that he was the third person in our relationship, because we saw so much of him. It was great at the time, because we had a ton in common. My ex and I were even contemplating getting an apartment with him because we all got along so well. Well after a little over a year, my ex and I broke up because things just weren't working out. It wasn't a bad break-up, and we still see each other around from time to time and catch up. Well, the friend and I stayed in contact, because we had so much in common, especially musical interests.
We both love the same band: Eisley, and we don't know anyone else who loves them, so whenever they're in town, we'd go to see them, and sometimes other bands as well. A little over a month ago, we went to a show together, and were having a blast. Then at the end of the night he kissed me. And ever since then we've been together.
Only problem is that tonight he left for basic training for the air force. I feel extremely empty and heartbroken, not only at missing a SO, but also someone who has been such a great friend for so long. He only left today, and I know things will probably get worse before they get better, but I remember this site being a source of comfort for me in the past. It's good to be back. It looks like a lot has changed.
