I'm sorry to say that Jennifer & I have already decided that our relationship isn't working, and we've decided mutually to step back from it and just be friends.
I love Jennifer very much, and I believe she loves me as well.
Long distance relationships are indeed hard. I think we both believed in our hearts that this would work, but the stresses that go along with being apart, and then with coming together proved to be more than we could handle I guess.
We both hold out the hope that maybe spending time as friends will help us to find that special connection we once had and perhaps we'll still wind up as more. But in the meantime we've decided to move forward.
I'm not sure what I'll be doing. I may move back to Milwaukee at the end of the summer and try to look at this as a long vacation, or I may take a job here and stay until spring of next year.
We both just wanted to make sure that all of our friends heard this information directly from us and not through gossip.
Thanks for sharing JR...hope you two can still be friends and that things work out for you both wherever life takes you next... and what Web said so nicely too
Sorry to hear that it's not gone to plan, but what does in this life, I am glad you are gonna stay friends, it would be such a shame to lose the friendship too, I hope you both find happiness, whether it's together or with others.
That kinda sucks...but ya never know how things will work out until you try.....and hey the south isn't such a bad place to be for a few months (or longer). My best to you on whatever comes your way!
I am so sorry to hear that Riggs. Friends are the ones you keep forever ( For the most part) and If nothing else then you have a great friend in Firefly. I hope in the end that it all works out.
I commend you both for at least trying... Like I told you when you did move there a few weeks ago; "You are walking on water." ... you have to take risks, and most risks take courage, and you both have a lot of courage, and I totally admire that.
If you had not tried to do what you have done, you would go the rest of your life saying, "what might have been?"...scratching your heads.
So hurray for having the courage to step out of the boat and walk on water, at least you did a lot more than most people would have done. I know I would have never even gotten out of the boat if I was in your shoes.
From here, I wish you both happiness, and thanks for opening up to us JR.
You 2 deserve the best whether that's together or not. With saying that I am hoping that you do indeed allow each other the time to see what happens. You both deserve that.
