It was suppose to be two weeks, but that pesky volcano over in Iceland kept Mr. Ujest and his Dad grounded there with family, in Germany, an extra week.
We would communicate via me sending a txt to his cousin’s cell phone over there and letting me know at whose house he was at so I could call. (Cheaper for me to call then them.) BUT they would always just let him call from their cell phone to either my land line or my cell phone. It’s like $4 a minute or something for them to call us, compared to our ten cents a minute rate.
And then the calls when three or four of them were polluted with bier were always a good time. Especially when I am at work.
It kind of depends on what you mean by SO, in particular when someone goes from just casual dating to a serious relationship.
Just a couple of months after I met my future wife, I went to Europe for two weeks without her. But that’s not how I answered the question. Since she moved into my house, we’ve not been apart for more that one week at time, so that’s how I answered.
Yes, it can. Not only is there performance anxiety but you’ve gotten accustomed to satisfying yourself in a certain way, and then even when you really want to stick in the lotus flower the sensations and lead-up are different and you don’t respond physically. Sometimes it’s best to put it off a day. It takes the pressure off.
I think in the 19 years of marriage, we actually spent about 10 years together and the rest mrAru was at sea or deployed to some shipyard for ship repairs. Longest was 14 months each at 2 different shipyards on 2 different boats. 8 6 month cruises, 8 or 10 3 month cruises and innumerable shorter cruises. A couple several month schools and several shorter schools.
I used to date/be engaged to a man who lived 3 hours away. It was fine when I was unemployed, but once school started again for the semester, I didn’t see him nearly as much. Until he moved in with me. Then we fell apart.
I was gonna ask about that. 'Cause no way would it work for the boyfriend and me–we both have very non-mobile jobs at the moment, apartment leases, etc. We’ll avoid that bridge when we come to it, I’m sure, but one of us moving is looking to be at least a year down the road.
Well, you have your home to yourself. She has… her parents. Ulp.
6 months. I studied abroad in Australia just as he’d made the decision to transfer to my university. (Yeah, the timing was awful.) It sucked - definitely more for him than for me. Phone calls and emails are really no good replacement.
