back from the UK as of yesterday
« on: June 03, 2009, 03:23:55 PM »
Well i havent posted here much, and in a long time for that matter, but it seems appropriate now. My story(to be short) went to the UK for first time 7months and ago, visiting a friend studying abroad. I fell in love with England right away! I felt i was actually a part of the world for the first time, loved everything. On that trip i approached a beautiful english girl at a club, saw each other again night before i left(a chemistry ive yet to experience instantly)

At the time i had a gf home in the states, so i didnt act out, but it was something out of a movie, we get on extremely well. When i got home we surprisingly kept in touch over the months, phone calls, facebook, msn..etc. Well i just had holiday and ended back in london for 2weeks, and me and my ex broke up(great timing huh..was her choice) We hung out lot, met the fam, turns out it wasnt just the "london experience" we get along so well, the chemistry, all the little things..u know the constant eye contact, laughing, smiling all day...very mutual, she told shes gonna miss me..likewise.

She might be coming here on holiday next month(crossing my fingers) to visit me. Now i really want to find a way to move to the UK and be closer to her, as i mentioned before in another post..ranting about how hard it is as a yank. We still arent bf and gf, i just want to take things slow right now, enjoy the moments we have, it is a tough situation being across the pond. I wish i could pick up and move closer to really properly see if we can build this relationship further.

I do work for an airline so getting over there isnt expensive for me, but she lives with family, so it would still be expensive, where is i might not have a place to stay. Maybe im thinking to much into it, just should let things continue to play out, see if she ends up coming here next month. Id love to make a relationship with her, but the how lDR thing is quite intimidating of a thought. I know its gotta be a hard path, and marriage would have to be the end plan to make this work(unless somehow i got a visa to work in the UK).

i just wanted to share my progress, and i know lot of u guys relate, and i admire you for being so dedicated and enduring the distance. i been back a day and it already sucks knowing we cant meet up. the last 2 weeks was so easy, i was close by, amazinnnngg time. I want that to be my every week, im stuck here at home. Wish i could be a part of the YMS tier 5!

Since you've only been dating this girl for 2 weeks, I'd take it slow. Wait for her to come visit you, spend some more time making back and forth visits before you decide that you OMG can't be without her, know what I mean? 

Hotels and B&B's can be found for cheap, depending on the area of the UK you would be staying in.  Is it possible for the two of you to stay somewhere and split costs?  Are you absolutely not allowed to stay at her home?  Maybe stay with her at her parent's, but go away together for a weekend or something.

regardless of how long you've known her, you've only been dating her for 2 weeks according to your previous post where you state that on your first visit, you had a girlfriend stateside and you two broke up before your second trip over.   That's where I was getting "since you've only been dating this girl for 2 weeks" from.  Knowing someone as a friend, and knowing someone as someone to date can be two very different things.

Yea the first time we only hung out 2 times, an obvious connection yes. I admitted when i was back home that i liked her, she said it was mutual, but yea nothing serious. This time around we def got to know each other better, and really into one another. You are right though, i dont want to rush anything, im gonna take it day by day, and hopefully next month she will visit. Shes an amazing woman! what a find :)
