Living my life

In a relationship, you are supposed to live your own life and not be too obsessed with each other.

I am new to this. I have never had a new relationship before and I am not even back home a lot to spend time with my boyfriend. So, if I add up all the breaks, I have been with him for about... less than a year, almost 11 months of seeing him. I have been with him for almost 3 years, this coming August. I have only been/seen him for less than that.

I think I am doing well, considering that I am in a first ever, long distance relationship.

Anyway, getting back to my point. I am telling this story because I did exactly what I tell others. I took my own advice. Sometimes you need to. I lived my life.
I went throughout the day hanging out with my friend, doing "homework" in the library, hanging at the apt., watching tv, and just not worrying about my boyfriend. I know for a fact that he is always busy with something. I don't think that he ever takes a break.

Then at night, I get a text. I don't look at it right away, I'm too focused on my show. After a bit, I look at it and I see it is from my boyfriend, "Let me know when I can call you". I was shocked. What? He actually thought of me? Lol, did he not see anything from me all day and think about it? Hehehehe. 
So I texted him back, but remembered that he sets his phone down and won't see the message, so I decided to call him.

We talk for a bit and then he says he needs to do something and that he will call me back. So I hang up and continue to watch my show. Some time goes by, after a few dances, eating food, and roasting going on in the apt. I get another message, "Hey". I messaged back and get, "Want me to call back?" I text him, "sure". And soon enough, I get a call from him.

He asks me what I am doing and I tell him I'm at the "Guys Apt" (my friends live in the same apt, so my bff and I nicknamed it that), and that I am doing homework. I can tell that he is playing a game, and I let him, I mean I am busy doing actual work.

So this continues until I finished my work, it's midnight, and I am ready to leave. I pack up and go back to my room. We are still on the phone and I tell him I will text him because it's late and I don't want to wake up my roommate. Funny thing though, I forgot to text him, I feel asleep.

But it was a great day, and I feel I should live like this because I don't add stress that I don't particularly need.

Peace!
