I Should Have Known Better

Christmas.........very Disappointing In the End.

My Christmas day was great spending time with my sister , her partner and kids, and my parents.  The one thing I was looking forward to the most was talking to this guy which to cut a long story short , didnt happen.  Comes down to why I joined this group "I should have known better" whenever I look forward to something it just doesnt happen.  We were going to talk on Christmas day, but I got home and I was so upset to not be able to say Merry Christmas to him.  I guess I should have mentioned that we are sort of committed to meeting one another as he is overseas and coming to meet me in hopefully February.  We dont get to talk that often as he is busy with work and also the time difference.  It just hurt that the one thing I was really looking forward to didnt happen.  So here I am spilling my hurt onto a virtual page in the hope that the hurt and upset will lessen.  I dont even expect anyone to understand.

    Thank you for your kind words, I really appreciate it. I told him I was upset and also said that I didnt blame him cos i know its not his fault at all. I dont want him to feel bad cos things didnt work out the way I was looking forward to them going. I just hurt to want to talk to him and spend time with him. He is great.

    He may be in the military?? or if not he is in a similar situation. don't feel bad. He is doing what he must do. As soon as you can email him or call him or communicate in some way. Long distane romance sometimes turns out to be true romance. Be nice to the guy and forgive him some of his small sins Good luck Take care
