Distance Sucks

          I had butterflies in my stomach. It was almost as if we were meeting for the first time. I was ready an hour before the actual set time. He always says that I look good in black, so I wore a Black outfit. Everything was pre-planned; I did not want to mess up things at the last moment. I saw him after almost a year. He used to send me his pictures, but today, I had him 'live' before my eyes. After so long, I heard him calling me all those mushy names, I was able to hold his hand. The distance which was in miles had then been cut off to meters, temporarily though. I made the most of my time with him. I used this time to create wonderful memories; memories that would help me survive without him long after he is gone.

          Time without him doesn't pass by that easily. I feel disheartened whenever I see couples walking hand-in-hand all around me. I wish to be one of them. Without him, I can sense this vacuum all the time. This emptiness consumes me.

We are a Perfect couple; we are just not in the Perfect situation.

          Thanks to the ever advancing technology, the number of Long Distance relationships have increased manifold. Facebook, Twitter, E-Mails and other social sites connect people across borders and oceans. It is so easy to fall in love with someone who is miles apart. But the tough part is to 'stay' in love even after you realize the fact that he won't be beside you always. He won't be there to console you. He won't be able to take you to Movies or Parties. The anticipated number of dates would decrease manifold. You will not be able to hug him each day in order to let him know how much you love him. You will not be able to feel his presence around you, and the sense of security that comes along with it.

          There will be fights, heated arguments and insecurities involved. But once you manage to get through them, the relationship will be on the right track. Distance means so less when someone means so much.

Missing someone gets easier day by day. Because even if you are one day farther to the last time you saw him, You are a day closer to the next time you will.
