Visit

Gradimir came to visit me for a week.  He came in Portugal and sailed with us through Cadiz, Malaga, Ibiza and finally Palma de Mallorca, and my favorite place in Spain, Barcelona.  I wish it could have been a longer visit, but as it is, we both have jobs to attend to and it was more than enough that he came all the way from Bulgaria to be with me for a week.

It was a blissful week, like a pre-honeymoon thing……

He has just left for Vancouver this morning, where we are eventually planning to settle down, and where I will join him in 2 months’ time, or even shorter, who  knows….. 

Yes, it’s normal to feel the separation anxiety, although we have been through three physical separations already due to vacations and end of contracts….come to think of it, I have not been away from him for more than a few minutes since he came (except while I was working), and to not have him beside me now, to not have lunches and dinners with him, and strolls and tours in the magnificent streets of Europe, to not have him beside me while I sleep, to not have him here…it does take a while to get used to this feeling.

But the future looks bright, and full of promises…that is why we have both decided to take this huge step…because we both believe that the future has many great things in store for us as a couple. So a few more weeks is not really such a painful sacrifice…tough at times, like right now, but in the end, it will all be worth it.
