I know I’ve mentioned my long distance relationship before here, but I just can’t help but express how I truly feel about it. My boyfriend and I have been together since 10th Grade, back in 2011. Therefore it has been 3 years of craziness and love. This lovely guy has been with me through thick and thin and he showed me what love is. He is my first true boyfriend. Never have I been in love until I met him. I remember back in 11th Grade when he first mentioned to me him considering leaving Puerto Rico to go study in Florida. When he hit me with that news, I felt my heart burst. Why? Obviously because of the thought he wasn’t going to be here with me. We would talk about it a lot and I started to calm down about it. I remember the day he told me he got accepted into his ideal university. I was so proud of him and still am! But the way I felt inside seemed like I wasn’t happy. Truth is, I wasn’t so thrilled but I knocked sense into myself and said: “Don’t be selfish Vero. This is his future and you guys love each other and will make your relationship work. Never give up.” So when the day of him leaving to Florida was the worst for me. I was used to him visiting his family over there in Florida and coming back but I knew this time, it was official. August 8th, 2014 was the worst day of my life. I have never felt such heartbreak. Luckily I had two of my closest friends there with me. They made it possible for making sure I got to the airport to see him one last time. I gave him the tightest hug I’ve ever given him to feel his touch and a long kiss and cherished it and then I looked into his eyes. Oh, his hazel eyes how I miss staring into them… Some days it feels like he’s here in Puerto Rico, then again when I go out and see couples, it breaks my heart and makes me think about him and wishing he was here with me again. I got so used to being with him almost every single day and it hurts. But it’s all for the best. I know we’ll grow from this and will achieve a future together.
