“So I understand long distance is hard. It really is. But I don’t understand why people breakup because they “can’t handle the distance”. Personally I’d rather not see him for months with limited communication, than the rest of my life without him at all. Just saying.”

Nights like tonight

I’m usually pretty strong with the distance. But tonight and nights like tonight, when you’re not the strong one, when you tell me how much you hate, it breaks down my little bit of strength. When you show how much you hate it it hits me harder then when I think about it on my own. I know I can’t count on you to always be the strong on, but it’s nights like tonight when I question if I have it in me to be the strong one for the both of us. I love hearing how much you miss me and how much you hate it. But at the same time it breaks my heart knowing that it hurts you too. I’m just so ready to say our last goodbye and start coming home to you.

Isn’t that true!

Just little LDR things:

Napping at odd hours with your phone clutched in your hand so you’ll wake up when your boyfriend messages you “good morning”

Describing the best hypothetical cuddling scenarios in graphic detail

“Kiss me” “I just did”

Arranging pillows on your bed so you can pretend to fall asleep next to him

That horrible feeling in your heart when the call drops and you can’t hear his voice anymore

The breathless feeling you get when he buys the tickets to come see you (and every time you remember he’s coming)

Memorizing timezone conversion charts

Trying to pack months’ worth of romantic frustration into a few days

Knowing how good you’d look in his clothes but not being able to steal them because he’s so far away

The moments after you end a conversation so one of you can sleep or go to class and everything suddenly feels a little empty

Lately I’ve been thinking about the last time I saw you. The sweetest part was running towards you to finally feel your touch, because I hadn’t seen you in a few months. The most heartbreaking part was dropping you off, watching you leave my side, once again..

It must be so romantic

No. It’s not. I use to think so too. Until I started dating someone in the military. Until I got into a military relationship. We say more goodbyes than we do hellos. We can’t give each other or others yes or no answers about our future because we don’t know where we’ll be in 6 months or a year. There’s so much uncertainty about everything. Everyone told me how hard it would be. How hard the lonely nights and distance and nothing set in stone for the first while would be. But no one told me how strong I needed to be for this. Military girlfriends have to be bad ass. I have to be strong enough for both of us when he gets doubts and insecure. And he has to be strong enough for both us when when I get doubts and insecure. I ask him every time our visits are over if this is still what he wants. The constant goodbyes and maybes and countdowns. He tells me more than anything that every goodbye is one step closer to not having to say them again. No one told me that I would love him differently than I’ve ever loved anyone or anything else. No one told me I would cherish every single second. Or stay awake long after he’s been asleep just to feel his arms around me. Not wanting to sleep because to me, it’s wasted time. Yes, military girlfriends have our cute signs and cute t-shirts. We go all out for our men, and that’s romantic. But until the day finally comes where we’re together 24/7, it’s lonely and it’s hard and it’s full of so many insecurities. But it’ll be worth it. That I know for sure.

I love it when we cuddle and when I look up you’re already looking at me and smiling

Long distance relationships are not cute. Military relationships are not cute. They are hard. They will test you mentally, physically and emotionally. They will teach you how to fight for someone you love. We all know it would be easier to let go and wait for them to be permanently closer to you again and then try it out but love makes you do crazy things. Love makes you hold on, even if its by a thread because your heart beats for that person no matter how far they are.

I really do think of you at 2pm when I’m busy running errands. I think of you as soon as I wake up. Because I’m already wishing for you. I think of you at 8pm when I’m off at a dinner or a movie with my family. I think of you at 1am when all I can think of is how you smell. Thinking about how I love your laugh, and how I wish with everything I am that we were in the same bed kissing goodnight. “I wish you were here. But you’re not you’re there, and there doesn’t know how lucky it is.”
