Long Distance Relationships Can Work Out
Hi,
First of all, it's nice to see that there are still many
places available for internet relationships to flourish. Even today, when
I tell new friends how me and my wife, Sue, met, we receive the good old
"oh yeahhh" accompanied by a half-hearted smile and awkward silence. Uggggh..
I thought I would like to write a whole story on how me and my wife met.
You'll find poems on that site, including this one, that Sue wrote about living apart.. The site is a bit primitive, but I'm thinking of making changes...
"Can you tell me soldier what it was really likeWe have recently travelled back to Canada for two weeks. We wanted to get married in front of family and friends, all of whom went so much out of their way to accept her in the new family. We did this just a few days before our 1st anniversary!! Then, natch, we went on our "second honeymoon" at the very place we went to on our wedding day, a year ago.
to spend so much time away from your every loving wife?
Did she cry, kiss your photo and try so hard to pretend
what it would be like together again, when the war was ever likely to end?
There wasn't?t a phone, a card or a letter for months at a time
So how would you hear or see the words ?When will you be mine?
How did your love hold tight through all those cold dark nights,
braving the wartime, maybe the jungle or life threatening fights?How did you remember her face, her touch, the smell of her perfume,
when it was sometimes ?years? before your love life could resume?
Dancing with strangers trying to live what life you had far away,
trying hard not to get too involved or let your love go astray.
So why all these questions? Is another war coming soon?
No, I don?t think so, just that my hero is coming home too,
but, not from a war or even a fight,
just a long loving distance after his flight,
but, I want him to see, many people share our same sweet sorrows,
as your answers are important to help us believe in our many tomorrows"
Sounds confusing? So, believe us, long distance relationships
can work out:-)
