1,324 miles; My LDR story

💗May 2017💗

On May 1st when my dad's friend and his family, and Emma was round for a barbecue, I found out some news. Well, I didn't find out. It's more or less just that Emma told me face to face. After 9 months, her and James had broken up. Tbf, it started to get a bit like a situation with one of my ex's.

They didn't have that spark, lost their connection and never talked to each other. So, I'm glad for her that it was kind of a mutual breakup. Even though they don't speak now and he was a bit of a dick towards the end of the relationship for never sticking up for Emma.

Emma and I were upstairs, and she was stalking Alex's mum's Instagram. She found a picture of him when he was fourteen, and decided to post it on my Instagram while I was on the toilet. I took it down straight away.

The next three days (Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday) I had a science exam each day. I was quite glad when it was soon over with, and it meant that I could go to my friend Lily's party. There's not much I can really say other than it was great fun, and Emma gained a new boyfriend. Matt. Also, there's a picture of Emma and I at the party above.

            Moving towards the end of the month, and Alex was mentioning about possibly coming to the UK again in the summer holidays. So, a couple of evenings later, I went out with my dad and Casey for a meal. I asked my dad, and he wasn't too keen on the idea.

            So a couple of days later, we went to my auntie and uncles house for my cousin's birthday. And my dad brought it up... about Alex staying over. No one in the room seemed to keen on the idea. The whole way home, I was crying. Telling my mum, "I miss him so much."

            This was probably one of the many times when my mum has given me very wise words. She said, "I know you do. After all, it's hard not to miss someone you love."
