Our Love Story: LDR

     After a previous long distance relationship ended, I decided that I'd never try long distance again. And I hadn't...until I met KC. There was just something different about him. Something fun and exciting, and something that made me very curious to get to know him better.

     After that first weekend (blog post here), I went back home to Arizona and told my best friend/roommate all about it. She convinced me to go back to Las Vegas the following weekend with her (not that it took much convincing lol). I texted KC to see if he would still be there and sure enough, he was there for a few more weeks. And he loved the idea of me coming back.


    You see, when I met KC he was in the army; working on getting out. He had been in Las Vegas on leave, visiting family and friends. He was stationed in Germany, so I wanted to see him as much as possible before he went back. My roommate and I got to go back to Vegas one more time before he flew back to Germany. That's when the true long distance relationship started.

We loved going bowling!
     KC was persistent. I didn't expect him to keep in touch once he was overseas...but he did! We couldn't talk on the phone much because of high calling rates and our opposite schedules, but we texted...a lot. He was so easy to talk to. It felt like I'd known him forever and it just came so naturally. We would talk about nothing and everything all day, every day, until he went on his last tour. Lucky for me, he was able to get a few texts to me on the weekends and luckily, it was only for 3 months. Our relationship was really tested during that time, but we were both in it for the long haul.

     I'll post about our reunion another time :) xoxo
