As some know my g/f and me were to meet last week for 1st time. It didnt happen as I got mugged and her flight money was stolen. Anyway I worked my ass off the past 2 days with cracked ribs and all and got the 600euros back up to replace the cash she had sent. So anyway I have a flight on hold for her for thursday and I am paying for it 1st thing tomorrow! So all is well in the world right now! Well not quite but alls well with my situation.

Anyway things have been real bad for her latly as her friends one year anniversary for being murdered was a couple of weeks ago, she lives in apartment on campus for 5 people 2 are gone already and of the 2 left 1 is her friend the other is not and never pays bills and everything is in my g/f's name. Anwyay the friend is having to drop ut as she was raped recently and her grades slumped so her financial aid was stopped so not only is my g/f losing a friend but also gaining more financial stress. This girl was to move out on Valentines day but becasue my g/f was to be here and was all upset at not being able to come her friend stayed the extra week to be with my g/fto make sure she was ok.

My g/f is out of college too at present as she has had an arguement over her fees with the school, its a big deal and revolves around her attack last year and then when the guy attacked her again 2 months ago, anyway she is having real problems there too. She has her sons birthday coming soon and a few big recitals for herself and the students she teaches. She basically has alot on and really really badly needs a break and my god has she deserved one.

I mean I have not had it easy latly either with whether it be down to being mugged and ending up with cracked ribs and jaw and fluid on the lungs etc or my own financial woes along with my family problems but i think she needs a break more than me and now that I mfinally able to sort it I am so happy.

I can now spen the rest of this week earning spending money and money for a nice pair of shoes for her that she wanted for Valentines, a few other things that arent too big but the main one is the engagement ring! I want to be able to give her everything she wanted from the "Holiday of a lifetime" kind of thing, and show her the time of her life while here and this is the stuff she has spoken abotu.

I suppose Im writing this as i now know that things are finally about to move forward the way we both want so things are great for a change!

hope it lasts.

You should sell that to "As The World Turns".

(For you non-American people. That's an extremely dramatic soap opera.)

Me too!

I mean Ive just gotten off the phone with her there a minute ago after talking for almost 2 hours and that is the 5th time today we spoke though the ohtersdidnt last longerthan an hour. Anyway she was pretty down when she called at 11am my time 5am hers and then an hour after that conversation she was upset too about all thats happening. However then tonight she appeared to be a whole lot better and was talking to me abotu when I go over to her and all and telling me how she hadeen lookinginto getting me a car to rent for my time there and geting an apartment and all as she isnt allowed officially to have males sray overnight in her place, anyway its just that hings are going well for us again these past 2 days which is real good as things were really goingagainst us til now.
