Long-Distance Blues

I forgot how difficult it is to go back to a long-distance relationship. My girlfriend went back to Taiwan a few weeks ago to work and the last few weeks have been some of the most difficult for me.

Minor arguments and misunderstandings become magnified with distance, putting further strain.

Both of us are at important points in our careers - trying to build ourselves up professionally while we are still under 30, and we are prepared to live apart long-distance while we are doing this.

It's not all bad though - we are able to see each other relatively frequently, every 2-3 months or so.

Yu-Hsuan is coming back in about 5 weeks and I will go out to TW for a week around Valentines day.

I can't wait to see her again - I don't really care who reads this - I just want to get this off my chest and say how much I love my girlfriend.
