“Distance doesn’t separate people. Silence does.”
You know what trips me out? When someone says to me, “Girl, I don’t know how you do it. I can’t have my man being gone all the time, on and off.” *Clears throat* Well, ya know, whatever floats ya boat, to each it’s own. Me personally, I wasn’t going to leave my man because he was bettering himself. I could never be more proud of him. And his career has afforded me a lifestyle that I am blessed, and so appreciative for.
But umm, on another note, people fail to realize that long distance doesn’t always mean miles away. How many of ya’ll have been in a relationship with someone, and they aren’t miles away, but you feel like you’re in a long distant relationship? I have!
Now, don’t get me wrong. Long distance relationships are not easy. Trust me, I know. But I also know that life is what you make it! That’s right, life is what YOU make it! Not what the person next door or across the street says or thinks it is. I encourage you to march to the beat of your own drum. It was easy being in a long distance relationship, God knows. But it wasn’t the end of the world either. It all shaped and molded me into the person I am now. And I grew from the good, and the bad of being in a long distance relationship. But shoot, I’ve been in relationships or dated someone where we both lived in the same, country, state, area code, zip code, and even neighborhood and guess what, I never felt so far from someone. You would have thought they resided in Africa, Korea, or Japan, like, whaaaat.
Some people fail to realize that it’s not where you’re, it’s who you’re. Most women think because ya man isn’t around you, he’s doing this and he’s doing that. Well, that ain’t never stopped Tom, Dick, or Harry (These aren’t real people for the person who is trying to figure out who I’m talking about.) from cheating on me, and they lived up the street, around the corner, and down the block from me. So, what was the reason for that? Yeah….I’ll wait. Small minds get small result, I tell you.
In the past years, when we were in a long distance relationship, Rob had shown me more attention and love far away, then the man that was right there. Now ain’t that nothing? So, to me, it’s not always what ya dealing with, but who ya dealing with. Cause what someone will do to you far away, they will do to you close by. What’s in you, is in you. No matter where you’re at!
You can feel alone with a person that lives in the same house as you! Under the same dog on roof! I’ve heard it all before.
The physical presence of someone does not make them there emotionally.
I’m Just Saying…..
