R was the perfect boyfriend. most caring and loving boyfriend that a girl could ever ask for. he was the guy that spoke about sharing his forever with you. so you imagine what your dress and shoes will look like on your wedding day and hope to god that your future kids will have his gorgeous eyes.
we actually met a work. months of flirting back and forth finally brought us together, a little bit too late though. he was headed for england the next month for half a year. even though we were both devastated, we made a plan.. id fly over there.
so somewhere between the 11 hour time difference, almost daily Skype sessions, a million and one messages and $400 phone bills.. we fell in love. the kind of love where you get butterflies each and every time you think about the person and id smile like an absolute moron whenever his name was mentioned.
after three painfully long months it was time for me to jet off to the mother land.. good ole england. we spent the next three months travelling around europe together. everyone we met would say i was crazy for flying half way around the world for a guy id only been with for a few months, but could see how in love we were. we were in our own little bubble, just us.
when we came home things continued on. we practically lived together. i had my own drawers. we would cook, clean and do laundry together. the more this went on the more i could see us having a future together.
then life got in the way of things. we would spend less and less time together.
then one day that was it.
