Wow!...just read all this and thought well at least i am not alone....so thanks everyone!
I am getting used to living in two time zones, one which is accessed through my PC everyday. But your right a long distance relationship is so hard particularly when your not sure when you will finally get that VISA application completed . Hopefully early in the new year then we can see each other again. Meanwhile we are managing to keep each other cheerful and positive and looking forward to our future together.
Well Merry Xmas everyone particularly to those other couples who are apart waiting for various reasons till they can b together.
