I wish I could’ve just gone…
I used to almost beg this man I was seeing...he lived 9 hours away just to let me drive out and see him, even if it was only for a few hours. I asked more than once. Every time, it was the same: “You won’t have enough time here. We’ll figure something out. And every time, I told him it didn’t matter. That it was worth it to me, 9 hours there, just to see him for a little while, then turn around and go home.🥰
The only reason I didn’t just show up (and trust me, I thought about it) was because of his situation, ex-military, tight security around his place. I tried to respect that.
But after two months of not seeing each other, after asking weekend after weekend and getting the same answer… it started to feel like rejection. So I stopped asking.
He was starting a garden, his first one, and I just wanted to be there. I bought him tools, split up my seeds to share just for that one weekend we actually talked about me going.
And then two days before I was supposed to make the drive… he told me I shouldn’t go... Said I had asked too many questions and it made him uncomfortable.... oh well, no, I know why I didn't work now ǰ....
