Long Distance Relationship Works

(Ohio)
In summer of 2006, I went on a mission trip in Dallas, Texas.
I met a guy and we became friends fast. After meeting him I thought we'd never be able to be together. He lives in Maryland and I live in Ohio. Just the same we became best friends.
In March of 2008, he came to visit for a few days. In those few days I realized just how much I liked him and how I'd been ignoring how I felt about him.
In April of 2008, he asked me to be his girlfriend. I didn't realize I could love someone so much :) He's in Australia this summer for another mission trip and I thought it would be hard to stay away from other boys just because I don't get to talk to him much. Surprisingly it's been the easiest thing ever to stay in love with him. That proves to me that he's so worth my time.
