Mental Cesspool
All the little thoughts, problems, and concerns that I may be dealing with at any given time, spread out for the internet to see.
Damn.
I can't stop missing Tye. I keep thinking about him. Constantly today. I want to hug him and kiss him and hear his voice and feel his arms around me and his breath on my ear and I just want to be with him right now. And I'm not. And it's killing me.

Hey, you guys. Put yourselves in Tye's position.

You're 600 miles away from your girlfriend. You work from 430am to 8pm. You get about an hour total to yourself each day. You'll start making money after you're volunteer session in the CCC is over (which is this thursday). Your girlfriend's birthday is coming up in August, and she's asked you to spend it with her.
Now, let's think for a bit. Yeah, you make good money. Yeah, you'd like to see her (particularly because the song "Birthday Sex" comes to mind). But it's a 12 hour bus ride, not counting extra travel time (give or take 4 hours). She wants you to stay for August 22nd-24th. The bus ticket would be $130, give or take. Hotels are around $60 a night, for a nice one.Which is where you'd be staying if you did make the trip. That price doesn't include meals, which can be pretty pricey.You'd have to take time off of work, which you're not sure you'd be able to do, considering you'd only have been working for a month, maybe two during the time that her birthday is.

What would you do?

Well babe, I was in your situation. Josh WAS going to come visit me for my birthday, but his work prevented that last minute, so instead, I went to visit him. I'm not saying that you need to go to him, I'm just saying sometimes things don't work like you want them too.

I don't mean to be a downer though! See him when you can, whether it's now or later, and treasure that time!

If he loves you, none of that will matter.
What will matter, is seeing you. If he loves you, he'll do it.

I know what you are going through, how you feel. It was a bit harder for me. We were together for 2 years, spent lots of time together. And in an instant he had to leave. Didn't see him once for 7 months. It was a long time for me. I missed him so much. But you know, I realized it wasn't too bad because hearing his voice on the phone and knowing he still thinks of me, made me happy. I was glad he left, because it helped open my eyes that I was taking him for granted, that he really was my best friend. It helped me to see, that our relationship wasn't fake, wasn't infatuation, but that it was love. Because I didn't feel like I was going to die because I couldn't touch him, that I didn't need to see him everyday. But that he was still with me when he left, didn't want anyone else, and always called me everyday to talk to me, listen to me.

This is making me emotional. lol. I was just planning to write one sentence but nothing ever goes as planned. Which is my advice to you, if you wants to see you, he'll find a way. heart
