I've been too scared thinking about what life would be without S, and getting consumed with that is the wrong way about it. There are many obstacles that get in the way of a relationship, but it's the process that you have to enjoy. All I can say is that my anxiety is somewhat reduced, and I think this will help me avoid becoming the hysterical girlfriend who needs to know our plans every minute. While there is still uncertainty, which there always will be regardless of situation, it's not worth worrying.
I'm always left to think about this silly analogy about a bookcase. You don't purchase a bookcase based on how you will get it up the stairs or if it will fit into your room. You purchase one because you love it and can't imagine any other bookcase in your room. The logistics will fall into place if you desire it that much.
Awww Connie, I wish I could reach through this screen and give you a hug! I worry a lot about what the future holds too and it can get really stressful! A two year LDR might be in the horizon for us if I happen to get accepted somewhere other than Galveston :( but you're right, we shouldn't get too consumed by these thoughts! Whatever happens, things will fall into place. We just need to be ready when they do! :)
