Good morning guys, welcome back to Is Me Tanks. Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend.

I hope you're all doing all right. I saw my boyfriend for the first time in like a month, so I hope that went well.

Yeah, it was a big struggle in the end and I really wanted to just check myself because I think I...

I mean, I don't think that I was flippant when you guys would raise questions of long distance and say, well, what are your tips for?

I don't think I gave any and I don't think that I ever said it was easy.

I believe what I always said was, oh, well, I don't really spend that much time apart from him anyway because our schedules are like always flexible.

His schedule is flexible. He can come be with me or whatever.

So I can't really speak on it and now I feel like I can speak on it and I do not love it.

I do not enjoy long distance and I really, my heart goes out to anyone who is doing long distance right now.

I find it very challenging for many reasons. I feel like... Well, actually, no, I made a TikTok. I'm just remembering this now where I was like, I kind of like it in the beginning.

Like, oh, my God, it's so flirty and fun. And that's because when I was saying long distance, it was like two weeks apart. We can have a part.

You know, that's it. And I was like, oh, this is so fun. It's like a long getting the honeymoon period.

And now that I've had like a full... It was just very difficult for me to be honest with you.

And it's very challenging. I think it's challenging because, of course, you miss them.

But it also just throws off the balance of the relationship in my opinion and it can feel very arduous to keep up with someone, especially if your schedules are crazy.

Like, my boyfriend was in Paris for a while in Costa Rica and, you know, Japan now. And it's really hard to even find time to talk.

And then when you do talk, it can be like, you can easily get into a pattern. I'm not putting him on blast.

I'm just being honest with you from my point of my side of my, you know, my feelings. You can easily get into a pattern where you're like, what did you do?

What did you eat for lunch? Dada, Dada, Dada. And it just feels like, I don't know. I didn't love that.

And also then when you do see the person, it's very unbalanced because you want to like spend every second with them.

And that's like not how relationships are. And I'm such an independent person that that's difficult for me when we are together that the expectation is.

And that's coming from me too, that I want to spend a lot of time with him. But it's just like, I like, I've never spent a night in the same city as him, but a part if that makes sense.
