My boyfriend wants me to see him today...but he lives far.
Question Posted Thursday April 14 2011, 9:05 am
Since my boyfriend and I live a little far from each other and we go to different schools, it takes a lot to see each other. I usually see him every Saturday, Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday. He rides his bike to the park by my house and it's a thirty min ride for him. I couldn't see him Tuesday, and he wants me to ride my bike to his house today.
Truth is, I don't have a very good sense of direction, and I don't like it. I know the general direction where his house is, but I feel weird because I'm not good at going long distances on bikes. I get tired easily. I really want to see him today, but I don't know. Plus, my parents work and sometimes I need to watch my baby brother and sister. I also have chores and everything, so it's kinda a mixed subject. My life is scattered and I never know what is going to happen during the afternoon, so I really don't know.
My boyfriend really wants me to see him today. I know a relationship is fifty fifty on making time for each other, and that means I need to make an effort too! If he travels that far for me, I need to do it for him too. I just don't know how to get there and I don't want to disappoint him if other plans get in the way. My parents don't know we're dating either, so it'd be risky for them to drive me there. I'm not sure why he won't ride his bike like always, but it's understandable that I need to do my part, too.
So any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.... Thanks so much.
30 minutes on a bike is really not that far away, I have biked to my friends house back in the day which is an estimated 25 minutes. If you want to make the relationship work then you are going to have to do your part just like you said. You can't expect him to put in all the effort, It doesn't work that way.
