sick of crying Erin 2006 Apr 23 06:36 AM

I feel like I am being awfully sensitive after reading some of the posts about bf's being in Irag for a year, or permamnent LDR's. Just needed to vent since I am having one of those not so great days. This December I met the man of my dreams. We have literally spent everyday together since then until last week when he had to fly back home to Sydney. He is able to come over on visas but they run out usually after 3 months. He will be back at some point in July and then leave again in Oct. Then he will return in Dec/Jan. It will be the same cycle until (if) we get married. Then the cycle could continue for over a year as paperwork goes through. I knew all this going into the relationship but it isnt making it any easier. I feel like he leaves here and goes home to his family and friends and I am sort of left behind. I wonder if each time he leaves if it is going to get harder to do or a little easier. I love this man with all my heart and have no plans of ending this relationship - just needed to vent adn possibly a few words of encouragement. I am so sick of crying!
