Well, I've been meaning to post this for a while and now I have some time to do so.
You may recall me looking for a couple through dating sites and such, some months ago. Well, it didn't really work, for I found few interesting girls that were also interested in chatting with me. The one I'm dating now, well... she found me
She added me on FB back in September, and we chatted regularly, as friends sharing music and having casual talks together. She's a SW fan as well so we met at his gig here after the show. It was a bit weird for she's very shy, a bit awkward, and not very expressive in her body language, but it was really curious an experience, for I felt... mirrored. Like a female version of myself years ago. We latter chatted about that, and one of our conversations became... deep. We talked about how we had both always felt like the black sheep everywhere, never really fitting, among other depressing stuff
And I think that was the little spark that made us connect a bit, because after it our chats became more and more intimate. And last week I declared my love for her and we became a couple.
We're too similar, for not only we have the same height and physical contexture, but also share many things like a preference for dark clothes, short hair, a lot of music tastes, even the same philosophies on love and the crave for deep, serious relationships. She's a curious girl, open to new things, loves abandoned places, creepy stuff, cats, and weird music, but also is very sweet, lovely and compassive - basically everything I'd been looking for in a girlfriend and more.
Thing is... she lives 400kms away from me, and it's 15 years old - I'm just 19. So most of our interaction outside the gig meeting has been through text and pics, and some audios. And, well, Skype - just today we had our first session, and although we expected it to last 10 mins, it took us almost an hour and a half and had a great time. We plan to meet again in July, but tbh I'd prefer to do it as soon as this weekend, but we both know that wouldn't end up well, for her parents don't seem to take us serious, and considering the context, they have valid reasons yet it frustrates me a fuckkng lot - her mother seems convinced she could find "something better" and that I would use and dump her. Fucking triggers me.
By now the father doesn't seem to know we're really into something, but he's kinda suspicious of me and my intentions. I hit my head against the wall in a daily basis figuring out a way to convince them I'm a good guy. It's really frustrating, and things are progressing very slow in that sense but she and I are very happy with each other - she has hopes of coming to my city to go to college when she's old enough because her hometown sucks (it really is an awful city), but, again, doubtful parents. And I understand their worries but I fear they might ruin our thing if we aren't very, very cautious.
So that, sorry for the wall of text, but really wanted to share this, as I'd like some tips on how to maintain a distance relationship considering the circumstances. This is both our first time into... well, this bf/gf thing and have made some mistakes, but we'll carry on despite them - we get along so well I doubt we'll find someone like the other anytime soon and well try our best to work out this. Thanks for reading
