That's right, folks! Though FB and I have been happy and content with our long distance relationship, I am getting frustrated.
**And, for future reference, I am changing my FB's nickname to Stetson Man aka SM. Though, he is and will always be my Foodie Buddy, he's now my Stetson Man.**
It's not a big problem, not really a problem at all. I know I'm going to see him in June, and I'll get to spend A LOT of time with him. It's keeping me going and it's also keeping me sane. Funny thing is, though I'm hot and bothered, I'm not even thinking about straying. The old me, the me two years ago would have the wandering eye already.
Is it the distance that's keeping me wanting him, and only him? Not to boast my own ego, but I've had opportunities to stray, but there's nothing appealing about any of that. Not anymore. Or, maybe I've just had enough of the game, and realized that I've got quite a man in SM. Yes, that's it. That is totally it. I don't want to do anything to screw this up. That's how much I want this to work.
And, so far, it's working beautifully. Stetson Man and I have a relationship that consists of mostly texting. Daily, but we are also facebook friends, with many mutual friends to join us together, and make it feel like we're all so connected on a daily basis. We talk occasionally, but mostly keep it to chat and text. Neither of us are 'talk on the phone' type of people.
So, tonight, I came across this article in Cosmo that described a bunch qualities in a guy that you should marry. I went down the list, and man .... SM fits the bill. Now, I'm not thinking of marriage, not this early in the game, but it got me thinking about why we're doing long distance in the first place. And, it comes down to the fact that we're working towards a goal of being in the same place, and to be together finally. No matter how long it takes. I'm hoping it won't take that long, but definitely feeling this first year out. He wants to be sure that Colorado is where he really wants to be. As for me, I've been on the fence about moving off the rock for a very long time.
I suppose, I'd be completely comfortable with SM deciding to stay in Colorado on a more permanent basis. If it comes to that, it won't be easy at first, but we'd make it work.
That's how much we want this to work. And, it feels good.
It's stoopid late, readers. Gonna get to bed! .... xoxo
