disappointed more in myself than in him* update*2x
So i emailed bf to tell him whats on my mind. Yes he is going thru shit but pushing me away? I have to say something so at least he can give me clarity. He feels like he rushed into things w/o thinking it through of how hard the long distance will be. But really? I went through this with him several times before I said I would be his gf. My condition was that we both realized the sacrifice it will take to get through this. We didn't break up, but I am giving him time to think about it by himself. He can text me if he wants. I am done for now though. The ball is in his court.
So tonight I am going out with my friend and his roommate for drinks and then to see Safe House. I need to get some fresh air. I did not sleep all night last night because of this shit. Idk maybe socializing for once will help me forget for now. I feel like I was fooled into thinking this guy wouldnt be like the other soldiers. He and I relate so much by what we went thru as single parents and many other things. He can go ahead and explain himself to his family. He got them all excited about us. I am kinda shaking my head here. Oh well live and learn. So we shall see.
Alright so I went out with 3 guy friends last night and had a drink and went to the movies and it was fun. I needed that breather. Bf or should i say soldier and I have been texting all morning. He just can't handle the distance. I understand. I just wish he was upfront with me. I told him i still care for him and if he ever needs a friend I will be here. I know he feels bad too. I don't feel so awful because he is a soldier afterall. He said all the things he said to me he meant but right now its just too hard for him being over there. So be it. I am gonna go out next weekend and keep doing my thing.
soldier's sister wrote me on fb asking what happened. His other sister was like WHAT! I just said I dont want him to be upset with me sharing but he has been distant and is having a hard time dealing with the distance and has been having doubts and thoughts about what is going to happen when he gets back. I let him have his space and I told him I will be here for him if he ever needs anything. I wasn't as sad but now I am a little.
Im sorry:(. That's rough. Keep your head up, and have fun tonight!!!
Quoting photogal831:
Im sorry! Going out tonight is probably a good thing....just remember that this might just be a struggle this relationship goes through....lost distance and being in the military are hard on relationships especially new ones....hopefully he realizes what a great person he would be giving up
Agree...I've learned the hard way that an easy relationship usually doesn't work out..it's freaking hard especially long distance & military. Make sure he knows youre worth the work.
