I just got back from Gent, Belgium. What a beautiful city that is and I recommend going there, if you ever get the chance. Very medieval, very romantic.
You know, I really thought coming here I would get away from all forms of temptations. That isn't the case. I am doing a lot better though and staying away from the one thing that would have sucked me in and ruined my life. That is a good thing.

Everyone I know seems to be on these amazing journeys in Europe! You and a couple friends of mine from Pickering went to the Sex Museum just a couple days apart from one another, weird! So whos this boy? Do you like him? Teehee
It's so pretty over there, I am tres jealous!

oh really? small world.
this boy is jonathan, and he is from belgium. i do like him.. alot. so i really hope that it works out! i haven't had a boyfriend in quite some time and i'm getting lonely. even though he lives like 3 hours away by train, it's nice to still have a connection with someone and know that they are there for you.
it's lovely here! i never want to leave.
Haha, I know, it's so weird, a lot of people are over there. Why the hell am I heeeeeeeeeeere!
I guess it's for a reason.
I thought it was him, the one in the photos. I could tell I suppose :P
You think he likes yaaa?
3 hours away? Ouchie. So how the heck did you meet to begin with?
How IS it going over there with everything, with the job, the people? Are they nice? Is language barrier a big problem?
And I'm rarely on my blogs, as you already know, I just post once in a blue moon when I'm in need of some venting! If I can figure out how to change my settings, I'll invite you, lol.
TATA for now!
you need to use livejournal again, even just to read about my updates because i can't be bothered to post everything in here.
thought he liked me. now he's ignoring my calls and/or too busy to answer, with work, etc. he did lose his phone the other day. maybe i'm invading his space. i don't know.. i guess we're finished?
Yeah, I suppose I could, I'm kind of tired of that site though. I dunnaaa. I didn't even know you still used it, otherwise I would've been looking on there. I guess I'll have to go and look it up again!
So, about this boyyy. I'm assuming there's no huge language barrier. Is he from over there? Maybe you should just give him some time on his own. Don't seem too hung up on him, if he's interested, he'll come to you, cause I'm sure you've already made it obvious that you're interested in him. But then there's another thing.. How long are you going to be over there for? How long are you ALLOWED to be over there for? Do you really want to get serious with someone if you're time may be limited?
I know I kind of asked myself the same question with the guy I'm with, and have been with for a year now. Once he gets his Canadian citizenship, he could leave here, and who knows, maybe I won't see him again, but I took the risk anyways. Cause that's what us silly women do!
yes, i use livejournal almost everyday. and thus, it's in much more detail. so, i highly recommend :)
the name on there is siirius.
nope, not a huge language barrier. sometimes he doesn't know the correct english word but then we just crack up laughing.
i'll be here until next september at least, unless something gets fucked up with my visa. and it's so weird because when we were together we were talking about how i could move to belgium after the year is up, maybe be an au pair there or if worst comes to worst, marry him just for the citizenship.
and i wouldn't mind getting serious with someone because you can always work around that sort of thing.. i wouldn't mind permanently living over here. and he also mentioned that he would move to canada.
but now, nothing. he won't answer my calls or emails. i don't really know what i did wrong...
maybe scared him off? i always get attached for too quick. fuuuucking stupid.
yes, you're absolutely right. women ARE silly. it's ridiculous. but yeah. check out the livejournal, much more detail over there! :)
i miss you, by the way.
Ah, the non-fiction we live, eh?
c'est la vie!
Alright, so you're going to have to tell me how to invite you on this thing, do I just use your email adress? If so, what is it?
I'm going to try and find your sirius blog. I think my livejournal account is non-existent? I just tried signing in, from what I remembered (username). If my username is on your thing somewhere, can you post it for me so I can sign in without having to sign up again, lol.
Thanksbunch.
Ahh, so I found it! And I've become updated. There's so many other peoples comments on that other blog though, I kind of like this one cause its just youuu and meee baybehhh. LOL
So anyways... this boy.
It seems as though things happened between you too extremely fast! You're just like me, wanting to rush into everything lady!
So you two have uhh... already?
I'm sure it was very hard to resist! But woman, oh woman, you gave it away too soon! It seems as though he took what he could get from you and then vanished, knowing he could get away with it because of the distance. Now, I'm a negative person, so perhaps you shouldn't listen to a damn thing I say. But, I just hate when guys take advantage of girls like that. I think if you two become 'in touch' again, you should slow it down a bit. I know you feel like you have to rush, because you probably feel pressure and under time restraints, but you've gotta try and forget about that and just focus on the NOW. (I love how I give out advice that I can BARELY follow myself, LOL). If you take things slow, you can be yourself more, and maybe see the real person. Sometimes you're so caught up in them, so quickly, you don't even pay attention when it comes to getting to know them, truly and thoroughly.
Either way, if things don't work out, just try and look at all of this as an amazing experience. When you're like 30 or 40, hanging out with your lady friends one evening, swapping stories, you can tell them about your twenties, and your trip to Belgium, and how you got laid in Belgium with a cute boy! Baahaha.
Oh dear, well I hope I put something on your face, hopefully ... a smile?
Do know though, that I kind of know what you're going through, to an extent. Maybe not the exact same situation, but I'm sure the feelings are on the same level.
Will be checking back soon...

Yay! Glad something I said helped, it seems as though I cannot please anyone lately, sighhhh.
Well, I guess only time will tell. It could all very well be the truth, but at the time, and for us women, him 'losing his phone' and 'being busy with work' will all just seem too convenient for us. Sometimes we find out we're right, sometimes we're totally wrong and end up feeling like an idiot. So, I guess my advice is if things continue, to take it with a very laid back approach, sometimes you gotta pretend you don't care. Revealing emotions so early in can scare a guy off. Especially talking about a future with marrying him and staying over there, or him coming here. They're pretty thoughts really, but slightly unrealistic at this time.
I also read in another blog about you x-ing some british dude? LOL. I laughed cause his name was Dean. And the guy I've been with for about a year now is from England and his name is Dean. Sounds like you're having quite the life experience over there. I wish I had your guts just to get up and leave and do something crazy like that! But yes, I hope you get through this one okay. I hope he doesn't turn out to be an asshole, and even if you two don't become serious he'll become a good friend. At least if you want to go to Belgium you'd have somewhere to stay! It's always hard to tell whether they're an asshole or not. I tend to think all men are assholes, and I don't know where I got that idea from. I guess I've had my share of assholes. I try to give them the benefit of the doubt but there's so many out there! And they're all so damn sneaky!
Ahhh, sighhhh.
well i also know that he's been online (because i'm creepy like that) and he hasn't responded to my emails. maybe he wants space, or nothing to do with me whatsoever. blahhhh.
anyway. yeah. dean. haha.. it was.. weird. to say the least. haha. and he's 32!!!! ahhh.
dude. guys suck. ugh.
Oh noes. Yeah, if he's been online, like it's pretty obvious that he has, not just someone 'accidently' logging into msn, then something might be up. If he had access to the internet and didn't respond to your emails then maybe hes just a little freaked out, I dunno. What did the email (s) say?
Maybe he's just a pretty face my dear, he might not be pretty enough on the inside to be a significant other to you.
actually, he hasn't been on msn. just some other site, kind of like myspace but for dutch people.
yeah. maybe he is a little freaked out.. i don't know. i'll give him time and maybe call him in a week just to be like what the hell?
i left my postcards there, i hope he sends them off :(
