The One That Got Away..?

[IGrowTrees]

Okay...I'll try to make this quick..

Some time back there was a thread about stuff you regretted and what not. I said that my regret was not getting with a girl who was into me in middle school/high school.

Well, I've stayed friends with her and talked to her over the years. I've always expressed interest and told her that I would love to be her man. The only thing that stops us from getting together is distance. We are like an 8 hour drive apart...and I don't have a car at the moment.

I just talked to her today and she is now single. We both know we want to be together and that it would work out very well.

She has her own house, a good job and she is just a very special lady overall.

My plan is to keep talking to her and see how it works out.

Im not against moving to be with her, but I just became a legal MMJ user a month ago and I don't want to give it up. She knows I smoke weed too and she's fine with it.

Oh man...when things really started going my way, I was not prepared to make such a big decision..

there has to be some way we can do this..any ideas out there?

Just take it slow and dont do anything hasty...maybe you can meet in the middle somewhere, sounds like you want to explore this, so just take it day by day and if its meant to be it will happen!
good luck

congrats man thats awasome just make the best of it and dont put to much pressure on the situation but sounds like a dream come true for you

 

[IGrowTrees]

you guys are right..I knew someone would have a good objective POV and good advice..thanks Mrs. Babba and coldoneror

It is totally a dream come true for me! I knew somehow I would get another shot at true love, but when you never know when and if it will happen you kinda just stop and realize it will happen when it's meant to.

Oh man...I am all listening to cheesey love songs and the butterflies are fluttering in my stomach.

Seriously man...this lady means a lot to me and I am going to take both of your pieces of advice to heart and put them to use.

I was starting to think that all my shots at love had been used up.

Just appreciate whatever happens man. If it ends up being a no go on moving and all that, then be okay with it. I have a couple of friends that I would love to give it a try with and if they are to ever be single again it would be a great opportunity. The important thing here is to take a deep breath and just relax about it. I would give it some time to even meet up with her. Just play it slow until it breaks. Then you will know what to do without much thinking about it.

Love the butterflies in the tummy feeling!! Sounds like you have it bad hehe
You never know what life has in store for us, just have to hang on and enjoy the ride!

I think from just talking to her, I can see some good signs..but, I do not want to get my hopes up so that whatever happens Im cool with it.

I think it's a good sign when she is happy to hear from me, she remembers a lot of things that we've done together, she wants to hear from me more from now on..things like that..

man, I never thought I would have a chance with her seeing as that she is tall, blonde, great body, but more importantly, she has a good personality and she has morals..she's like a total package!

she will end up leaving you, there is a reason why she has been in and out of relationships.. and for you to wait this long.. sorry bro but there are many fish in the sea. and you got mary jane on your boat, id go sail elsewhere pimpin..

Lol you are such a jerk. IGT man, don't worry about it. Just don't go into it looking for a serious and sustainable relationship. The fact that you are so far away puts a damper on that unless one of you is going to up and move, not likely to happen any time soon. So just talk with her and enjoy talking with her. If you decide to meet up somewhere enjoy that, whatever may happen.

well...I am going to keep talking to her...I'm not going to let this opportunity pass.

I've already had a family member tell me that I can use their vehicle to go down on my birthday as long as I bring it back with some gas and no dings.

I actually went for a little walk to mull over my options...I'm pretty sure that if we got serious I would move..hands down, no brainer for me.

I'm going to take it slow and keep talking to her...since we've known each other since middle school, it's not a big deal to meet up..no akwardness...

actually, when i got back, I had a message on my phone from her..she said to call her when I got back..

I'll let you guys know how it goes after I can talk to her more..

thanks for all the advice peeps, even you Jiu Jitsu Playa

most of the time long distance relationships fail due to selfishness. if you can be honest and if she can be honest then go for it. but it there is any sense of troubles...then the will add up and build upon one another and it could ruin this long lasting friendship.
if she's worth it, go for it. If she's questionable....continue the friendship and continue your life. best of luck either way buddy.
