Soon-To-Be Long Distance Relationship
Dear Bitter Single Guy: I have been dating this guy for about 8 months, on a recent trip to meet his family we got into a huge fight and he decided to end it. But now I get an email saying that he misses me and wants me back, the things is he’s in the military and will be gone for about 7 months…what can a girl do to find out if it’s true love or if it’s just loneliness? ~Not Sure I’m Ready~
Dear NSIR: The Bitter Single Guy thinks that it could be both true love and loneliness, but that doesn’t help does it? NSIR , GI Joe is going to be gone for nearly as long as you were together before the Big Fight. Even if you had not had the Big Fight, the BSG wouldn’t give your relationship much hope to last when you haven’t had enough time to build a foundation that can survive a 7 month absence. When the Big Fight gets added to that, the BSG is concerned that you will remember being dumped as the last big event in your relationship before GI Joe headed off to war.
All that said, if you’re willing to take 7 months out of the dating pool (the BSG thinks sometimes a break from the dating pool is extremely healthy) this could be the perfect opportunity. You could make up with GI Joe, which would give him something wonderful to think about while he’s protecting our freedom (the BSG knows that there are bitter folks who will be thinking that he’s protecting oil interests and stuff instead of freedom, but it’s his experience that the nice folks in the armed services are usually passionate about their mission…it’s the leaders who are a bit dicey in the BSG’s opinion).
During the time you’re waiting for GI Joe to come home you can take a pottery class, read the classics, tutor school kids, or otherwise do something good for yourself and the world. Tempting, the BSG thinks. ~BSG~
