How my relationship begins When I was searching for a job one and a half year ago, I used to write a notebook entry about my girlfriend everyday. I wanted to make good use of my time to improve my written English, and also keep track of my valuable learning experience in Italki. It became much difficult to devote time to writing when I started working. Nonetheless, I still insisted on chatting with my girlfriend everyday. I had felt a strong chemistry with my girlfriend since I first met her. There seemed to be magic between us that made us get along with each other well. Although we were not very talkative, there were nothing we could not talk about in Skype. As time went on, our desire to meet grew strong. She decided to fly over the vast ocean to meet me for the first time in February. I did not plan well enough before she came. We ended up waiting and sleeping on the stairs! She was so depressed that I was not interested in her, at least she could not feel it in our gathering. I regretted that I was too shy to express our feelings. I missed her so much after she returned home. I swore to myself that I would confess my feelings to her if I meet her again. In April, I decided to arrange a surprise to her by secretly finding her at her school. When she knew that I was coming, she was very delighted to see me, but a little disappointed that I did not tell her in advance. I still remember it was raining heavily that day. We did not spend a lot of time together. On the next day, we spent a great afternoon shopping around the neighborhood. After we went back to the hotel, we were exhausted and lied on the bed. The room was dim and quiet. We looked into our eyes on the bed. Slowly, I told her my true feeling toward her. I asked her if she wanted to be a relationship with me, and how I wanted to be with her everyday. That is how my relationship started. Being in a long distance relationship is not easy. I miss my girlfriend all the time. I hope that one day, we do not have to separate and live in the same country.
