Absence makes the heart grow fonder. After breaking up with my last girlfriend, my memories of our moments together only seemed better and better in my mind. Probably to the point where I'm romanticising what really happened.
 
Unless I write a little post-it note to myself, I forget to do everything. And I'm not even old.

You'll get over that soon enough. Eventually, you'll release her tragic faults and won't be able to stand in the same room with her (at least if she's the one that broke up with you). Key, never crawl back. Keep your pride. If its meant to get back together, you'll have wait for her signals.

After a while I came to the realization (around the start of this school year) that my memories were growing overly romanticised, and I've moved on. :) Meanign I'm single, ladies...:p ;)

Yeah, good call Archie ;)

With romantics, it's way different, and one longs for his girlfriend when she is away :groucho:

One longs for her until another set of legs strolls beside. It's a fact ;)
 
What she don't know can't hurt her. ;)

I'd suggest you at least make sure you really like the distant girl and vice versa, or else you'll be throwing away a golden opportunity. :p
