"If you have it [ Love ], you don't need to have anything else, and if you don't have it, It doesn't matter much what else you have...",,,or so the saying goes. You see, I am in this relationship with a different nationality and religion as I am. We are both currently in a country where we are both expatriates. We've been together for more than one (1) year now. We both love each other, we have the normal quarrels that couples have. But deep in our hearts we love and care for each other. We're like bestfriends where we can share each other anything, be there for each other no matter what. We have shared laughter and tears. But the thing is we both know that as soon as our visa expires and we are to go back to our respective countries, that would be the end of it. We both know it, its inevitable. We have not discussed the idea of getting married, it just never came up between us. It was hard for me to accept it before, until now actually, but slowly I have come to accept our situation. Thinking about our "doomed fate" made me feel a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. Some of you might say, "then why the heck are you still in the relationship?!?". The truth? I don't know. I guess its something you can call L-O-V-E? Pretty stupid and lame huh? Or it could be I'm scared to be alone in a foreign country where you cannot trust everyone that you meet. Or perhaps because of the special bond I share with this wonderful guy. Deep inside I know I should let go before I fall too deep-in-love and later I won't be able to recover from the excruciating ache and grief...

THINKPOSITIVE7 answered Wednesday January 28 2009, 12:01 pm: Hello,well wow what a situation,it is hard enough finding someone you love but harder to keep them,remember that everything happens fora reason and everyone is put in your life for a reason,he is obvioulsy very important to you and it is going to be hard to leave him behind very hard but as you two well know it is inevitable. So I say enjoy yourselves while you still have eachother,there is no reason to end it early, enjoy every momnet with eachother and create fond memories to last forever, When the days start widing down do special things that you both enjoy and will never forget, life is too short to be miserable any second,enjoy yourself while you can and take it one day at a time,you have to live in the present to fully live if you waste time worrying about the future or about things that you cant change you wont enjoy it. People are in and out of your life and unfortunatley your journey with this guy will be over in time but you will always have him in your heart, having this relationship will prepare you and make you srtonger for realtionships to come, I know it is hard to think positive when you know what is going to happen in the future but you know it is going to happen and that is that if you continue to think negatively it will definitley bring you down and make the whole situation worse.So just have a blast with him while you can you will not regret it!I hope this helped,if you have any further questions you can send me a privatee message if you need me to be more detailed,the best of luck to you!
