Title: Just in time for valentines day, too
Post by: BriGuy92 on February 04, 2012, 01:06:04 PM
Yesterday, my girlfriend decided that she would like to, as they say, "take some time off from our relationship", in order to sort of re-prioritize herself and make sure that the relationship isn't getting in the way of more important things. I understand that, and I respect it. In fact, I think it's actually a really good idea; we're both college students, we both have more important things to concern ourselves with. Agreeing with and respecting that decision doesn't make it not suck, though. Having a girlfriend is awesome. Not having one, which is pretty much where I'm at right now, isn't so awesome. What makes it worse is the fact that we go to schools in very different locations, so what was previously a long-distance relationship is now a long-distance un-relationship, which is both hard to wrap my mind around, and hard to get over. I know that this situation is just temporary, and I fully trust that she'll come back to me, but there's still a question of when. In the meantime, it's gonna be rough for me.

And now, I'm posting on the internet about it. Is that a good or a bad thing? I'm not entirely sure. I guess you all can be the judge of that. I just need a hug.

I'm not exactly super positive about relationships right now, seeing as my last one (and technically first real one) blew up in my face after my girlfriend did everything humanly possible to ruin us, but I'm sure you two will be fine. It's definitely weird to me to "take a break" whilst you're in a long distance relationship though. Before I cut ties with my ex, it seemed like there were tons of unwritten rules about what we could do long distance. That stuff drove me insane, but if your girlfriend isn't a destructive monster, it won't be nearly as bad as I had it.

Of course, my ex was evil and tried to manipulate me even after she broke up with me... and you two seem to have a fairly civil relationship. I trust you'll have a much better experience regardless of how difficult it may seem. I mean, at least she's not cheating on you with 2-3 different guys... simultaneously.

Seriously though, good luck. Don't stress out a whole lot; you get way too distracted if you let it get to you too much.

/me joins in, and starts the whole group spinning around, possibly humming the Jewish wedding "Ya-dah ya-da-da-ya-dah" song in a probably misguided but ultimately heartfelt attempt to lighten spirits
 

/me also is here to talk anytime if you want to.

Thanks for the support and the laughs, everyone. Seriously, that helped a lot. I'm trying to look at this in the most positive way possible. I figure, when we actually do get back together, it'll be awesome enough to make this period of suck worth it. So for now, I'm alright. We'll see what happens going forward, I guess.

I was going to post and say "I have one of those!" because I recognized the hair immediately, but then the rest of the pic loaded and I nearly spit my drink out.

Yeah, anyway..


/me is also here for hugs and comic relief

Context is a *****, isn't it?
