anything to stop clock watching

yup, the bfriend is moving...
across the US...
to new york...
for a year (maybe shorter, maybe even longer).

what's gonna happen to you guys? are you gonna break up? what if you guys meet other people? why don't you ask him to stay? will you be sad? are you scared?
aren't you gonna miss him?

the situation's not as complicated as it seems. yes, he is moving. yes, it will be kinda hard sometimes. yes, i will miss him. i admit that anxiety really weighed my heart down and spurts of reality got the best of me. i didn't know how we would approach our relationship, if we'd have time for each other, if staying together and enduring those dreaded long-distance-relationships was the best idea. nonetheless, we're going to do everything we can to keep goin' strong and to maintain Christ at the center of our lives and our relationship. from the beginning, we agreed that we would always put God at the top of our priorities, which means letting Him do as He wills for the two of us. we need to trust that God will lead our individual lives as well. we have faith in each other, faith in the relationship God has blessed us with, faith in our good & loving God's will and we're praying that God allows us to grow together even way after his stay in the big apple. this will undoubtedly be a challenging learning experience, so we appreciate your prayers! it may be tough, but PTL for technology, for prayer and for God's faithfulness through all these changes.
