Talking to Him Is My Addiction

I think one reason we get along so well with Kyle is that we can talk about everything. And we talk. We've always been in a long-distance relationship. Even when I lived in America we lived in different cities so we didn't have anything else but phone lines. We used to talk every single day on the phone and after our first date there wasn't a day without talking on the phone until I stepped on the plane.

He didn't call me the same night after we first met and I have to admit I thought he wasn't going to call me at all. I'm the kind of person that when someone has promised something, it's a big deal if they don't do it. As you can see, I forgave Kyle when he sent me a text the next day. He told me it had been so late after work that he didn't want to wake me up. After he called me the next night he has pretty much called every night. I wanted to call him many times but he was always to one doing things with his friends so I didn't want to bother him.

I think that talking about things is the key in a relationship. If you can't talk to the person you're with, how you are supposed to solve things out? We've always talked about everything. He probably knows more about me than some of my friends I've known for years. And every time we talk I learn something new from him and every time it makes me love him more.

After I left U.S, we talked on skype as often as we could but it's not very easy to talk when there's a-seven-hour time difference between us. Usually we talk before he goes to work (his work usually starts at 4 p.m) and I to sleep. However, after a while we didn't talk that much anymore nor sent messages and I begun having doubts about our relationship. But we'll get to that later.

We recently began talking again and we've talked every night (my night, his day). We've had a lot of things to catch up and I feel I've missed out on so many things while we didn't talk. It was all my fault and it may be that I'm going to be mad at myself about it for the rest of my life. It is always so great to hear his voice and laugh. He has the nicest laugh ever. I'm always so happy when I get to talk to him and anxious if I don't. Sometimes it feels like a drug. I'm addicted and I need my daily dose to go on.

Love, May

  4. Tänään ei oikeen englanti kulje, niin laitan sitten suomeks :) Eli sitten kun Kyle lähtee lähetystyöhön, saatteko te pitää jotain yhteyttä (skype, mese yms) ja saako Kylellä olla konetta siellä mukana?
    Ja niin, miten teidän vanhemmat on tuohon suhtautunu, tiedän ootte molemmat aikuisia, mutta silti :)

  6. emmiina, joo eipä tuo mitään. Kääntelen näitä kommentteja muutenkin aina Kylelle. :) Ilmeisesti saadaan olla ainoastaan kirjeenvaihdossa eikä hänellä tule olemaan konetta.. Minusta tuntuu, etteivät kummankaan vanhemmat suhtaudu tähän kovinkaan vakavasti. Omat vanhempani eivät sen kummemmin kommentoi, Kylen hokevat yhtä mittaa sitä, että sitten, kun tulet sieltä lähetystyöstä.. :) Mutta eipä se heidän päänvaivansa onneksi ole.

    Lena, Kiitos paljon! :)
