another post on LDR

wedding is like one of a major life events right? so you know when a bride is getting married, she usually will have this positive form of stress (or we call it eustress) when the bride is feeling all excited about her wedding. on the other hand, the bride will also have the negative form of stress (or we call it distress) when the bride is stressing out on whether she is handing the next part of her life to the right person.

u know what, not long ago i had the exact same feeling as the bride. but not on a wedding, but on a long distance relationship (ldr).

i don't know about other ldr couple. but to me, it is weird (not weird weird but you know what i mean) when you have to be really close and lovey dovey to your bf when you haven't seen him for awhile. i haven't seen edwin for 295 days, which is 7080 hours, and which is 424800 seconds. if you asked me, i 'd tell you that's a long time. =_= so recently we met up when i was back to m'sia. like a few days before i went to kk to see him, i actually freaked out.

the upcoming meeting up with him produced good form of stress as in with all the excitement and anticipation, i mean after like so so so long, and finally you know!! BUT, at the same time, i was all stressed out (i am pretty sure this is distress!!) because of the nervousness and anxiety i have for the meeting. i felt so stress partly was because i wasn't sure how's everything gonna turn out to be. you know you can be like so loving and all on the phone or msn but when you actually meet up you don't know how you should act.

i am not sure whether you understand what i am trying to tell but one day when you are getting married you will understand how i feel. although i am not quite close to anywhere of getting married yet, i am telling you it's the same thing when you are in a long distance relationship (the meeting up part la!).

Ha!! you never talked to me about that too!! ya..ldr is very sweet, and is a lot of hard work.

always try to understand ur partner on the other side of this world, when you feel it's very tough, he or she will not feel any better than you.

cherish every moment that u have with her!!
