Alright guys (and girls),
My name is Tim. I'm 15 years old, and currently in a LDR. (Long Distance Relationship) I've been reading some of these topics and it seems the majority of the users on this forum are close, or over 20 years old. Since I'm only 15, I'm not sure what kind of reply I'm going to get to this, but it must be done. I'm in need of help.
You see, I live in Texas, while she lives in Washington state. For anyone that lives out of the United States they're about 2000 miles away. So yes, this is more of an XLDR, compared to others on here.
Anyways, we've been going out for 9 months now, and I can honesAndtly tell you, I'm in love with her. Her name is Emily, she's my age, and feels the same way about me. It was sort of love at first site. We started out of friends, and one night I got the nerve to ask her to be my girlfriend. I suppose I would have done it sooner, I was just scared. I had never been in an LDR before. And you have to understand, Emily is GORGEOUS! I'm not just saying that because I'm her boyfriend, I honestly mean it, aswell as everyone else.
I didn't have to see her to know that she was the one. Something just...told me she was. I can't explain it. I still have the same feeling, I know I'm going to marry her one day. I just know it.
But I'm making this sort of long, so I might as well get to the point.
-----THE POINT (You don't HAVE to read the above)-----
Ever since we got together, I've always been getting crap from people at school about us. How we're not going to last. How stupid our relationship is. How idiotic it is to be in an LDR. I'm sure you're familiar with it. Now be aware these are all imature freshmans who don't know better, but it hurts none the less. I mean, they're talking about the thing that keeps me going each day, about the girl I love more than life itself.
So I'm here to ask you, what can I do? I know I can't make people stop talking crap about us. But what do some of you guys do when you feel the same way I am?
Any help would be appreciated.
