Hey Ashley,Just to show you that things can work... my better half is from New Zealand (incidently the most amazing country I have ever been to) and I'm from the UK, we've been dating for like 3 years now, and we manage it... it'll be like 5 months ish now until I get to see her again, as long as you can talk, then things will progress how they're meant to... actually, it's my belief that it works better to get the talking part of the relationship, cuz it will bring you so much closer in real life whenever you're together and you will both appreciate the things that you share that much more... believe me, I know that from experience, every day that Jenna and I are together, I prize with every fibre of my being, and the days we are apart hurt like someone sliding hot rocks through my hopes and dreams, but, that's okay too, because it lets me see clearly just what it is I have to look forward to Just look at the positives, the negatives are there, and probably many to long distance, but, if you can make the positives work, as The Beatles (I hate myself for using this lame ass quote, cuz I stil don't like them btw, so, feel honoured lol) so aptly pointed out all that time ago: "All you need is love" Treasure your times together and share your memories with each other as often as you can and create new ones, even online you can create new ones anyway, hope you feel better soon, and just enjoy yourself... after all, we only get one shot at life I'm glad you had a good weekend too, I did right up until Sunday night when I had to get on my lame ass flight and go back to the UK, but that too is okay, because being apart simply starts the countdown to being back together again and it's really not to long Anyway, I've noticed that I'm rambling, so, just enjoy yourself eh live your life your way and by your own rules, and you can't go wrong laters
