nuerofire78 Sunnyvale, TX 37, joined Aug. 2013	Since I work as a long haul trucker I am away from my girlfriend for anywhere from 2-4 weeks at a time. Whenever I see her again we are very affectionate towards each other and have incredibly great sex.When we are not together we video chat and talk to each other constantly. I have been a trucker most of my adult life. If I got a different career working locally that enabled us to see each other every night,would our relationship still be the same? Would it affect it in any positive or negative way? [Edited 1/11/2016 12:50:25 AM ] Meet singles at DateHookup.dating, we're 100% free! Join now!

lucky_1million Pewaukee, WI 49, joined Jun. 2013	When I can see someone sporadically, due to distance, I feel like I miss them more and probably appreciate the time together more at first. I spend more time "thinking" about him then seeing him. This probably adds to the great sex and passion of a relationship. Part time relationships also give you a ton of freedom to do your own thing. That's nice. However, after a while it doesn't feel like a real relationship to me and that I'm missing out on the bonding that comes from having dinner together every night and settling down to watch TV together... all that "normal" boring stuff that couples do day in and out. This is nice too... especially if you love someone and get along well with each other. It depends on what you want out of life... a lot of freedom or a partner.

Over half of the women in there will be married to a man that just left. They are on the prowl looking for a boyfriend or girlfriend for the next five and a half to eight and a half months, depending on the length of their husbands deployment. That is a fact, I know I have seen it first hand and had it happen to me.

I know couples that the husband is an O.T.R driver, and those women go out and cheat just as much as a service man's wife. I also know that most of the O.T.R. drivers have side pieces in their regular layover stops. Not saying it will happen to you, just that it is highly probable that it will.

Just like chemistry and sparks it just a elaborate feminine way of saying "I really like this! Just like when they JUMP INTO RELATIONSHIPS based on chemistry and sparks... what happens when it ends? Where the chemistry and sparks then? Women always try to make sh¡t seem like they have NO CONTROL over the choices they make to avoid responsibility for their bad choices. Bcuz remember... they also say... "You can't help who you fall in love with!" If that's the case then why they never end up falling stinky homeless men who live under bridges, burn unit victims and homosexual? Why?

It was a f**ked up situation, where she asked for one thing and secretly expected another thing. This was my perception, based on the actions she was taking. She came into my life, literally, hours before I arrived home from work, to find my best friend had blown his brains out all over my garage floor, with my 9mm that I kept in the dresser next to my bed. She is a very kind hearted woman, and intuition/empathy is a very bad thing, because you can read people without them saying a word to you. When I called her out on it, she blocked me over FB. Shortly, thereafter, I deactivated my account. While I never see her or have any friends, that I am aware of, that associate with her, I reactivated my account and her profile showed up as a suggested friend by FB. So, at some point while my profile was deactivated, she unblocked me. It is in my nature to understand. It is a default setting in my personality, and the switch to turn it off is broken. That is the curse of a Scorpio. We HAVE to know, and when we don't or can't, it drives us literally insane.

It could change for the better. It could change for the worse. Who knows. I'm just amazed you started a thread that doesn't revolve around the circumference of your d*ck and how it gets semi hard vs hard hard in different scenarios.

testsignup Springfield, VA 62, joined Sep. 2009 online now!	" Does absence really make the heart grow fonder?" It's like all the other old sayings. yeah, it does happen like that, sorta, sometimes. But it isn't like a rule. For some people, absence makes resentment grow stronger. And even with people who are dedicated to each other (as opposed to the many these days who measure out how much fun they get, and have expectations of entitlement about it), if you try to artificially make the old saying work, it will screw things up. So if it works, enjoy it while you can.

I mean the relationship dynamic immediately changed right? The way it was may hide certain negatives that weren't seen because you didn't spend every night together , that may have been both of you at your best behaviors. Bad or good I can't tell you but there will be an affect I'm sure.

It doesn't matter if you are there 24/7 up their..butt.. or if you're miles apart. It is what it is. Loyalty is rare. If they are that exception guess what they won't cheat NO matter what.

Neither of you has to make a lot of permanent changes now since you're gone so much. That might change if you worked in the office and got home every night at the same time. Depends on the relationship I'd say.
