Last month on June 12th, my boyfriend flew 4,000 miles across the world to see me. That morning,\u00a0I was frozen. I stared at the date on the top of\u00a0my\u00a0phone. I could not\u00a0believe it was finally\u00a0June 12th. “Here we are, it’s today!” I thought to myself.\u00a0Today is the day we’ve waited so long for. Six months since Jorge\u00a0and I last last saw one another.<\/p>\n
One of the greatest challenges in\u00a0our relationship is the distance that separates us throughout most of the year. He spends his days in Spain while I live my life in America- a seven\u00a0hour plane-ride a part.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Although we have one of the longest long distance relationships I personally know of, we do a surprisingly great job of keeping up to date on one another’s lives. During those six months apart, I never felt like we lost touch which brought\u00a0me a great sense of relief after all of the fear I experienced\u00a0through\u00a0from being\u00a0separated from the person I\u00a0love. Knowing Jorge\u00a0was coming to see\u00a0me again for the summer meant everything.\u00a0I was overcome by thrill, excitement, and\u00a0even\u00a0a pang of anxiousness. Six months is a long time to go without seeing someone face-to-face.<\/p>\n
We were reunited at Newark Airport that evening. When he stepped outside the terminal doors, I was ready to\u00a0jump out of my car and run up to him. It was so surreal to be reunited\u00a0in the same place again. It is really a bizarre\u00a0thing\u00a0to go from being hours apart from the person you love to standing face-to-face all at a moment’s notice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
