I had the best "weekend" ever! (well, actually Thursday and Friday because I work Sat/Sun)
Obi decided to call in sick on Thursday and spend the day with me instead because it'd been three weeks since we'd had a day off together. Then I got Friday off by surprise, and he accidently slept in so we had another day together.
It was great. I've been missing him so so much. Sometimes we have so much going on that we don't see each other, or if we do there are lots of other people there too. We don't get much us time anymore. We used to spend hours every day on skype, talking, hanging out, just being together-but-apart. Now, we sleep beside each other, but we leave at different times, work at different times, have different days off and have too many social commitments. With that and the trust issues we've had the relationship was badly suffering, I felt like I was working hard and being far from my family and friends for nothing. Now I remember.

I love him. I love him with everything I have inside me.

This IS worth it, so long as I still have him.

He has also done some research on how to repair trust in relationships, and we talked about ways we can get more time together, and actually enjoy that time. So, we've started playing Aion together, in the hopes that we can learn better to share and work as a team. Sounds strange to people who don't game I bet, but mmo's can teach you a lot about a person.

I've been thinking about my second job too... I think that when Obi gets his next contract (the work he has now finishes in june) and we no longer have the prospect of me having to support us both, I'll quit my second job. I'm sick of being so tired and missing out on time together and with friends for a few extra bucks each week... but who knows? In summer work closes an hour earlier. Perhaps that will make the difference for me? We will see.
