I guess love is in the air this spring with all these posts. I also met someone recently who I actually like a lot because he wasn’t just handsome but very sweet. Problem, he lives in Canada 😂 I honestly wouldn’t mind seeing where things go. He comes to visit later this year and we’ve planned a date. I wanna text him more, but I also wanna respect that we live far apart. Don’t want to seem too needy. Would like to occasionally send a text here and there before he comes. Tips?

Why not plan a trip sooner? Go see him.

He’s a friend of friends too but yeah I’m probably overthinking it.

Happy for you!

I’ve had long distance connections like that in the past. The struggle for me would always be keeping the connection alive through only text/FaceTime for months since we couldn’t meet in person.

You’re definitely overthinking it. If you have these feelings act on them. You don’t want to be in a position to say “what if I did try”. Worse comes to worse, you’ve done a noble act of spending some dollars in Canada to help us as a result of the trade war we’re on the cusp of.

Don’t think this is going to go anywhere but I do wish you the best.

We have a lot in common as well, so not just talking out of my 🍑

Move to Canada and marry him. Get out while you can :)

Good idea

At my uncles wedding in Madrid I remember lying down on the grass in the courtyard after their first dance and crying, my Dad came and saw me, laid down in his suit beside me and asked what was wrong.

“I know my boyfriend wouldn’t dance with me like that at our wedding”

And we just lay there as I cried, and then got up. Had a drink.

Said boyfriend left years ago, and now I have a wonderful man who just asked me what type of dance lessons I want for our wedding next year.

Don’t give up.

I know this isn’t a marriage therapy bowl, but my husband has a really terrible tendency of saying things like “you’re being really mean” and completely shutting down during a disagreement when i objectively am not being mean, just truthful or vocal about how i feel about something. It’s a really convenient argument for him because it enables him to either be the victim and me the villian, or forces me to concede my stance and not reach a true resolution. Any tips on dealing with the irrational?
