LDR Issues
I'm currently visiting family before starting my summer job next week and a family friend is staying with us too. She's in an LDR with her boyfriend of 6 months. They live an hour apart and see each other every single weekend. She keeps talking (complaining really) about how it's so hard to be apart from him for 5 days at a time and these few weeks she's visiting us is just torture. Now normally I wouldn't really care because I understand that everyone handles distance differently and LDRs are stressful and hard no matter what the distance is. But right now I feel like screaming at her!!
I'm in an LDR and have been for 2 years now (we've been together 3). I see him every 4-6 months. I'm sick of hearing about how hard these 3 weeks are for her and how much she hates spending 5 days apart at a time because it's a new relationship for her and the time she's away from him isnt comparable to what I go through! Deep down I know her feelings are 100% valid. But while visiting family I can't even call my boyfriend because all internet calling is blocked in this country and calling his phone is too expensive (she bought a special plan so she's calling her boyfriend- I don't have the money for that). I saw him less than 2 weeks ago for the first time in 6 months and as always the first few weeks apart are always really hard and emotional for me. I don't want to cause problems with her and ruin hers or my own visit but I can't take it anymore. I feel like I'm about to either start screaming or crying hysterically!
