Coming down from the High
I’ve been coming down from the ultimate high of spending a week with The Guy. It was the bestest of the bestest of the best. We had such a great and wonderful time together, there are no words for it. I feel so blessed that he was actually able to come over for a whole week ánd to be able to take that week off work and spend it with him all day and all night.
As said, I’ve been coming down from that high since yesterdaymorning, since taking him to the airport for his flight back home. Spiralling down more like it. Anyone ever been or currently in a long distance relationship knows what that is like. Even though I’ve only been experiencing it for a few months, I can tell you: It sucks! One moment you have it all and the next it’s “gone”… And you immediately start wondering when you’ll see him again next.
Don’t get me wrong. Though the long distance stuff is a total bitch, I wouldn’t want to be with a.n.y.o.n.e. else! Hell To The Naw! The Guy is worth every aspect of the long distance ride. Hell Yeah, he is. And though I am feeling sucky right now, I know that I’ll get better in a few days, especially once I am back at the office and The Kid is back home from a holiday with The Ex and I’ll be busy doing my stuff again. But just like any brandnew relationship, being in love, he’s on my mind 24/7. And how to get our asses together again a.s.a.p is on my mind 24/7 as well.
I know I am totally blessed to have found him and we are very blessed having been able to see eachother twice, in total over 10 days, in a 6-7 week period. I am certainly a lucky woman having the advantage that The Guy travels a lot and there will be several occassions in future that he will manage to haul his (great!) ass thru Amsterdam airport on his way to some or other business destination, so I am pretty sure we’ll see eachother again within a few months. There’s loads of people in long distance relationships far worse off than we are…
But ya know… I just want him here… with me… snuggling up in his arms… being together… all the time… I just wanna wanna wanna so very badly… At least he left me two shirts this time, heh, so I won’t have to snuggle up to the suitcase label anymore…
26 Dutch Treats so far
Now all you need is a good sized Teddy bear to put the shirts on to make it a really good cuddle.
Distance sucks; saying goodbye bites… but being in love makes all shitty aspects of a long distance relationship seem minimal!
That Bitchy Chicks last blog post..Just a thought…
I’m wearing Dawg’s shirt right now, and snuggled up with the teddy bears he gave me.
The distance sucks, but makes the time together so much better.
And… I just hope you get a lot more time with in the immediate future, but for the long term.

Jen: Well, the thing I know is that we’ll do our best to make it happen. Totally depends on his travel though! But I believe we will make it work out soon!
Yep, I know the feeling well. And the only way to ease it is what you’re already doing; appreciating what you’ve got and realising it could be much worse - and knowing that there *will* be a next time
As for me, my next time is in two weeks, and I Can. Not. Wait!

Rache: Wow, I am happy for you that you get to see Erik soon!
The Ty-man and I were long-distance through two years of high school and through the college holiday and summer break. Yeah, it sucks. Even though is was forever and a day ago, I remember it sucking like a black hole sucks. Just hang on. It’ll pass.
Glad you had such a wonderful week, sweetie!

And OMG! Only 18 sleeps to go! I hope I will be able to say that one day… 
(((hugs)))
There’s good and bad here… good that you have him at all, bad that you can’t hold him as much as you’d like. Good that you have time apart to appreciate your time together, bad that it has to be so long between trips and that they are so short.
Hang in there… and bury your head in those shirts!
Finns last blog post..If I Want Something Done At All, I Have To Do It Myself
Finn: Thanks Hon. So true! And I’ve already informed him that the shirts are gonna be reduced to shreds by the time he returns…
Wrap those shirts around some thick pillows. If you sleep on them it will be guaranteed blissful dreams.
