Old_Geezer, I completely agree with you. I am very open about my feelings for him and he is aware that I've been thinking this thing through (although I can't help thinking that I should be less open because I don't want to hurt his feelings). I really wish we could meet more but I have college to contend with, as does he. We do, however, plan on meeting next month for a Christmas party/sleepover, which I am looking forward to.
After some research, I've noticed that a lot of couples in a long distance relationship feel a numb feeling every once in a while due to them being used to their lover not being around.
I've decided that I will see how the next meet-up goes and how I feel then, I don't want to lose him.
Thank you everyone, what you've all said has been very helpful.
