When we get into a relationship, initially it's wonderful and beautiful. Then later, reality sets in. We see the other person in a more realistic, less romantic light. At that point we decide to accept the person as they really are or we move on.
You may have to accept some things, Tim. You may have to accept that the woman of your dreams, the woman you're going to be happily married 10 years from now, is today living 1500 miles away. You may have to accept the fact that she is not relationship ready at this time.
It's possible that you may have to accept that you may not be relationship ready at this time, and that you need to direct more of your efforts inwardly at this time, further developing the person that you are, as opposed to directing all that energy outwardly towards some beautiful young woman.
This may not be what you want to hear, but it may be what you need to hear. On the other hard, I hardly know you. We each have to decide for ourselves. It's an ongoing learning experience.
