especially that begin as a three week holiday romance… are they worth it?

wont see them until december… when my friend and i may go back over christmas, and then again in the summer. but by then, actually travelling to see him will make it so serious. but i really like him, and miss him. but its probably holiday magic and glamour. i know the wisest thing is probably to forget it, but ive forgotten holiday romances in the past, and then when i went back, realised how much id lost. im turning 20 and he is 24, so we could make it work… but what if im just making it into something its not…dreaming and hoping and pining and missing…

maybe you should give it a try so that way you don’t have any regrets you never know how it could turn out…

yeah, i guess the key is just not to take it so seriously or be so fatalistic. just to see what happens. thanks for the reply!

I hate to be the pessimist, but here it goes:

Long distance relationships have the life expectancy of gnat.

Give it a try. It’s better to give it a try than live the rest of your life asking “what if?”

As to the question is it worth it, it all depends on how things will turn out. If you’re destined for one another, then it’s worth it. You’ll never know until you give it a try.

Good. Be cautious about loving but never be too afraid to do it. It can go two ways. Don’t be scared that when you give it everything, it won’t work out. Because what if you gave it everything and it did work out? No one knows ahead of what’s to come. But we do know that no one found love if they were to afraid to face the risk of finding it in the first place.

Those who were too afraid to take a step forward never got anywhere.
