My mum talks to my dad on Skype every night. He’s overseas on business 90% of the time, and has been for the last three years or more, but he calls between 9:00 and 9:30 every evening. I wonder if that’s why I’m so alright with having something long-distance, and perhaps that’s why I get so frustrated when you and I don’t speak for a week or more at a time – I have a set idea about what’s the ‘done thing’ in a long-distance relationship.

Relationship. You didn’t put that title on it. I did. Cuz I feel that way about you. I’ve felt that way about you for a little while now.

 

I don’t think we should run out of things to say.  I f   w e   d o, it wasn’t meant to be.

I don’t think we should get bored with no touching.  T h e   s e x   w i l l   b e   a w e s o m e   w h e n  i t   h a p p e n s. In the meantime, I can definitely make do. I’m sorry I’m not so much of a seductress, but I know you love the fact that you can get me wet with just a couple of words.

I don’t want to date other people. I want to see how it goes with you first. To be honest I don’t think it’ll work out between me and you, but we’ve gotta give it a go after coming this far!

 

 

 

Yeah.                 Skype.        Phone.        Viber.         W h a t s a p p.          FaceTime.                I do it all.

I  t h i n k   I’ m   i n   l o v e   w i t h   y o u. I’m just waiting til I see you again (in person) to say it.

In the meantime, I hope you don’t scare me away by not doing the ‘done thing’. Liking someone is scary. It’s opening yourself up, possibly to be punched in the stomach and winded. When you don’t get the immediate reaction you want, it’s easier to run away than to wait around and see yourself hurt. So I’ll try my best to wait around, but to be honest, I’m already finding this confusing and unpleasant. I’m aware it’s actually my fault cuz suddenly I’m adding the pressure, but I can’t help it!
