Is being in a LDR a temporary or a permanent state?

Last Saturday, at my friend’s wedding, I was seated in a table with friends, but they were all in pairs: Preggy N and her husband M, Blooming S with her boyfriend T, good friend E and her fiance C, and the dynamic duo I and L (both girls but not definitely not lesbians). Obviously, Dodong could have been together with me at that table (since he actually knows the bride — and her brother) but again since he is a thousand miles away, that simply wasn’t possible. I was the odd ONE out. Literally. With much emphasis on ONE.

Many a times I do wonder and ponder: when my ONE-ness end? When will I get to enjoy events and whatnots with my plus ONE?

I don’t want to end up being the odd ONE out every single time. And I am super relieved that this is one of the things that Dodong and I do agree on (Believe me there are a gazillion things we do not agree on). Our being in a LDR is just a temporary state.

We both are working real hard (It’s been a week since my last post as I’ve had my hands tied and sucky Internet service to deal with) to get ourselves out of the LDR. Yes, we are happy in the LDR state. But who doesn’t want to be physically together with their one true love?

P.S. I'd like to get to know you better so hope you could answer a quick survey here.
