All the tears, worries and happiness of my new romance! 9
Friday 24 June 2011 - Should I Stay or Should I Go?
Without fail, Andrew called me at around 10:00 a.m. I had contemplated on not answering the phone so I could listen to his message and decide whether or not I wanted to talk to him.
I know I didn't imagine that woman's voice. He told me he was out with his "mates." Funny to me that he didn't mention any female friends the whole time he was with me, except for Kate and Emma. Kate and Emma have been in a relationship together for a long time, so I have no worries there.
When I answered the phone, I waited for him to start explaining. The more I listened, the more I wished I would have just let the answering machine pick it up. Andrew had gone out with his friends, but they had a tag-a-long. He explained to me that Liam and Chris came over to his apartment to have a couple of beers and they decided to go out for a bit. Andrew's "darling neighbor" was outside as they were getting in to Chris' car, and Chris asked her if she wanted to come along. I didn't know what to think. Here he is over 3,000 miles away, in a long distance relationship with me, and a virtual stranger has the nerve to ask him who is on the phone? Maybe my mind is jumping to the wrong conclusions, but I do know that I am unnerved by it.
How would he like it if I decided to go out with a couple of my girlfriends and a single guy came along? I tried to play it cool on the phone, but my big mouth got the best of me. I told him that I hoped he had a good time with his new neighbor. He told me I was over-reacting. I also told him that this Friday night my parents were watching the children over night and I was going to go out with the girls from work and listen to a band. He didn't sound too worried or jealous. My mind was racing. This could mean one of two things: either he trusts me, or he just doesn't care anymore. He did say that he wished he could go with me. I guess that it all boils down to trust. Do I trust him now that he is out on his own, not underneath his sister's watchful eye anymore? Is the reality setting in for him? Is he thinking that it is too hard to be in a long distance relationship? Am I starting to have doubts of my own? I guess time will tell. I am going out with the girls on Friday. I do need a little time to unwind and get out of my head. I'm thinking too much again.
Until next week - keep safe!
