For anyone who has ever been in a long distance relationship- you have my sympathies. My boyfriend studied abroad this semester in Jordan, which is six hours ahead of D.C. time. To make the situation more complicated, we were apart over the summer, as well. I was living in D.C. for a job, and he lived at home in Massachusetts, so I spent the summer flying back and forth. Oh wait there's more- we only started dating in April! That's right- my relationship has lasted nine months, and the past eight of them has been long distance. If there's an award for optimism and patience- they better give it to me.
Since I presume most people have not experienced this type of situation, allow me to vent and list the signs that "You Might Be in a Long Distance Relationship":
- If you have "dates" with your GMail account, you might be in a long distance relationship.
- If you spend prolonged periods of time staring at pictures on Facebook, you might be in a long distance relationship.
- If you are always in a constant countdown until you will see them again, you might be in a long distance relationship.
- If you strangely feel like you should go to sleep because it's nighttime where they are, but it's only 6 p.m. in D.C., you might be in a long distance relationship.
- If you always answer "Restricted" or "Unavailable" calls to your phone because it might be from an international calling card, you might be in a long distance relationship.
- If your brain goes into immediate panic when another female makes any appearance your boyfriend's Facebook, you might be overly paranoid, but you might be in a long distance relationship too.
Hmm I've managed to depress myself, but I'll leave you with one more thing: 9 days left :D
