The Love Life Thread

[Simbaspirit]

haven't been on Lea much lately.. Cause right now I'm with Gunner in New Brunswick!!! So good to be together again..

[nathalie]

That's great news Simbaspirit ^^

I decided last night to finally update my FB-status ... people now seem to think it only happened then, but it really happened a year ago

[King Simba]

That's great SS! I've been reading about yours and Gunner's time together on FB. Seems like you've been having a blast.

Nathalie, I can't say I really noticed your relationship status before. But I certainly noticed you changed it last night, as did many more of us it seems. Congrats on being with your boyfriend for a year, and here's to many more healthy and happy years.

As for me, I will be jetting off to Mexico in just over a week... in 9 days in fact! But I have a feeling the remaining days I have left are gonna pass by slow. That always seems to be the case on the week before. I'm not looking forward to the long journey there, but in a way I am too... complicated, huh? Either way, it's gonna be loads of fun, and just lovely to spend time with Leor again.

[Simbaspirit]

KS Thats awesome! I know what you mean about those last days passing slowly - its the worst >.< But 9 days is sooo soon and then you guys will be together again

[nathalie]

Thanks KS, hehe, I never even had a relationship status on there, it didn't even said I was single.

[KanuTGL]

Aww, SS, I'm so happy to hear that you and Gunner are together again at last! How long are you staying for? :3

And congrats on the one year, Nathalie! Here's to many more ^^

KS, 9 days sure isn't a long time

As for my own love life, things haven't really changed Still here, still in love We celebrated our four-year anniversary the other week, and it's kind of hard to believe that it has been that long. Where has the time gone? xD

[nathalie]

Yeah, time seems to go fast lately ...

I started when I turned 20 ... haha

Actually, it's not a whole year, we were apart for 3 months, but I just find it so much easier to keep counting from the beginning, as it wasn't like we didn't hear each other during those 3 months.

[Simbaspirit]

I'm staying for a week our time apart may not be as long as some (its usually 4-5 months between visits), but the average time we spend together is only a week, and he has to stay in his parents room at night.. so although the time apart may not be so bad with only 4-5 months, our visit time is very short.. but at least we get to see eachotehr at all <3

[Leorgathar]

.....I'll reunite with Tara tomorrow!!! OMG!
I'll go pick her up at the airport in El Paso tomorrow and stay the night there, then we'll come back to my place here. We have plans to go visit Puerto Vallarta, and are scheduled to have so much fun and a lovely time there, I just can't wait!

Have a safe flight, sweetheart, I hope it turns out less tiring than what it seems to be, I'm already waiting for you

That's still a long time to be apart. Sad that you can't visit for too long though, but you are right that getting the chance to visit at all is the main thing.

Best of luck KS and Leor, and safe flights! Hope you two lovebirds have a fun time.

25 days until I leave!!!!

[King Simba]

Well, I'm up, awake and almost ready to go! The only problem is, the flight's delayed. I just hope it's not delayed so long that I end up missing my connection flight to El Paso.

But I'm remaining optimistic. I'm almost sure that won't be the case, and everything will be fine. I can't wait! Not looking forward to the long journey though. But seeing Leor again is really worth it.

Azzy, 25 days isn't a long time at all. Just over 3 weeks. I hope they pass quickly for you.

[Sharifu]

Have a safe and fun flight to Mexico! Well as fun as you can I guess. Hopefully there will be some good entertainment on the international flight. I always loved the excited feeling I had while I was traveling to see Petteri again.

[nathalie]

I'm always so scared to post something in here, since I seem to be the only one posting who's partner doesn't live across the globe?

Things are going much better every week for us 2.
Last week he even invited himself over to my house to stay for dinner o_O

About 9 months ago, if I would mention "my parents" he would shiver with the thought of meeting them, and then I couldn't mention "my parents" for another 2 months, and he would just refuse to meet them.

I think he's crossing that bridge now and is almost on the other side, hehe.

And next weekend, I'm getting a bunny from him
He has a huge cage for it to be in, and it'll be all mine *yay*

[Azerane]

Don't be ridiculous, you shouldn't be scared to post in here, that's silly. It's great to hear updates from everyone Really pleased that he's happy to be meeting your parents, especially since it was such a bad thing for him before. A very good step. Hope it all goes well

And next weekend, I'm getting a bunny from him
He has a huge cage for it to be in, and it'll be all mine *yay*

I am really jealous. I absolutely adore rabbits and I have wanted another one for a long time after I lost Hazel-rah. But with travelling to America, it's not fair on the rabbit if I get another one. One day... You'll have to post pics, LOTS of pics!

[nathalie]

He's met my parents now before, but each time it was more like: do I REALLY have too ??

Like last weekend, my parents both had their birthdays last week + a wedding aniversary, so they wanted all the kids and grandkids with them to go out to dinner.
He did came along (with the necessary *do I have too's* haha, so I was a little scared, he hadn't met my brother and his family yet, but it all went really well.

And my sister-in-law said he's approved

Aww, but you can get a new one when you get back from the US? ^^

[Sharifu]

That's just silly... It's not like this thread is called "Long Distance Love Life thread"... Besides, Petteri and I aren't in a long distance relationship anymore... We have been living together for 8 months now... Looks like TL and Kanu aren't in a long distance relationship anymore either. They have been living together for a long time and it seems like Kanu has made her home in England pretty permanent, at least for now since she currently has a job there.

Aww, but you can get a new one when you get back from the US? ^^

Well Bec would still be traveling to the U.S. again in the future... (unless she or Pat decides to move after that). It makes sense to not get a pet like that in her situation unless someone can take care of it while she is gone.

[nathalie]

I would only see it mainly on Sunday eather to actually take care of it.
But you got a point.
6 days is different then weeks/months :s

[Azerane]

Yeah, basically what Sharifu said, there would be months at a time when I wouldn't be around. I feel bad enough leaving this time because of my cat. I'm so worried if she gets sick, because she's 16. Hopefully she makes it through.

[Simbaspirit]

Kanu and TL, did you guys meet on lea? and were you guys LDR, and Kanu did you move to be with TL? Sorry for all the questions I'm just curious on how other LDRs have worked out

I've been back in Vancouver for a few days now, and I miss Gunner so much. We'll have only spent 13 days together through the span of a year, but it's more than we thought we would see each other it does get harder each time though.. Soon we'll be closer. We'll be 3 hours apart by car, so we won't be mega close, but its much better than taking 3 airplanes I really miss him though..

Leor and KS, I hope you guys have an amazing time together! That's so awesome you've got a whole 6 weeks... Have a blast!

[KanuTGL]

Kanu and TL, did you guys meet on lea? and were you guys LDR, and Kanu did you move to be with TL? Sorry for all the questions I'm just curious on how other LDRs have worked out

We sort of met on Lea, but we got to know each other properly through TL's RolePlay forum "The Lion King Goes On" (aka TLKGO). On Valentine's Day 2007 we both admitted we had feelings for each other and we wanted to meet up to see if those feelings really were "true" (since we only knew each other online). He came to visit me on June 10th that same year and then things kind of evolved from there

We were a long distance relationship until February this year, when I more or less moved here. I'm a "temporarliy permanent" resident of England xP I say that because I don't quite know how permanent this move really is; I might be going back to Sweden to study next year, see :/ But we'll see. Maybe I'll study in UK. I have no idea xP

And KS and Leor, I'm so glad you're finally reunited - have a nice 5 weeks together ^^
