High Hopes
I've been with my boyfriend for a little over a year but official almost five months. I'm in Texas going to college and he is in Washington in the air force. I knew exactly what I was getting myself into when I headed into a relationship but I didn't know how much of a emotional toll it would put on me. I want him all the time but I know right now we have a goal and after we finish that goal we will be together and it won't be too long before we are. I love him with all my heart and I have the hopes to marry him and he has hopes to marry me as well. I can be so hard, I see other couples together in college and they don't understand how lucky they are to have the one they love with them in the same place. I cry sometimes at night because when I just want to be held and loved by him I know that its not going to happen at that very moment. There are people that would die for a long distance relationship because of how emotionally connected you get to your other half but it comes with so much more that most don't quite understand. My mother has also been in a long distance relationship and I honestly can say I look up to her and her relationship because they are very strong. They will be getting married within the next couple of years and I can't wait I am very happy for them. Something I know I will get out of all of this is having such a wonderful partner and having a very strong relationship. If there is a will there is a way. God has a reason for everything and just because we aren't with the person we want to be with he has far greater plans for us and knows we will be with them for the rest of our lives. Hope you all have a blessed weekend <3
