Dissapointing

I like to scour other blogs dedicated to waiting and I don't know why. Probably to make myself want to kill someone. Most of the time the blogs I find by googling haven't been updated for months, and tended to taper out with the girl deciding to date and finding a nice guy. That's really great for them, but not so much for their missionary. I have heard directly from an RM I know that every time he saw missionary get a "Dear John", they responded to the girl happily, congratulating her, and hoping for the best. But he says the moment the letter was written and sent off, the missionary was distracted for weeks, often months for missionaries who had a year or longer before their mission. Much more so than when he was under the impression he was returning to her. This happened to missionaries who had come to an agreement to write as best friends and not a couple, missionaries who were written to lovingly, but attempted to be not-so-loving, and missionaries who were just into it.

It doesn't matter what label you and your missionary put on your manner of writing, you aren't going to get rid of those feelings of attachment that way. They will still be there, and trust me when I tell you all: The human body is incapable of ending a long relationship in less than a few months with someone without a face to face split. Your best bet is to try and stay true to the agreement you made when he left. To wait and be faithful. Instead of dating, try making a step in your career. Or go to college. You made a promise to this boy to wait, the least we can all do is busy ourselves without romantic relationships. It's really not terribly fair to anyone.

That's all for today people, the other missionary girlfriends distracted me and I lost my train of thought. I love you all, even the people I spoke about today. Each and every one of you.
