22. Talk about him as much as possible. The only thing better than being in love is sharing it with the entire world. Maintain and feed those butterflies by doing so.
23. Dont talk about him too much. Youll only miss him more. Besides, youll drive your friends mad!
24. Find a balance between rule number 22 and rule number 23.
25. Do something great with your life. Know that feeling you sometimes get, telling you that you did nothing today to actually make this world a better place? Imagine that feeling AND coming home to an empty apartment.
26. Dont do something great with your life. Saving the world isnt half as much fun when youve got no one to share it with.
27. Find a balance between rule number 25 and rule number 26.
28. Send/arrange/give small presents or surprises to him. Theres nothing like a nice gesture to remind him of how much you love him.
29. Dont send/arrange/give small presents or surprises to him. Having a big bunch of flowers sitting in your living room will only remind you of the great person that youre NOT with right now.
30. Find a balance between rule number 28 and rule number 29.
31. Plan ahead. Not knowing when the next phone call will be or even the next time you see each other can be awful.
32. Dont plan ahead. Remember when you were a kid waiting for your birthday or Christmas to come and youre mom kept telling you that it wasnt until many more nights of sleep? This is worse.
33. Find a balance between rule number 31 and rule number 32.
34. Laugh when he tells you about other girls making a pass at him. Nobody gets into a LDR voluntarily so he most really love you.
35. Dont laugh when he tells you about other girls making a pass at him. Be honest. You want the bitches to stay away from him.
36. Find a balance between rule number 43 and rule number 35.
37. Live your life like youre single. As long as there is no one to come home to, why not go out and party every chance that you get?
38. Dont live your life like youre single. Youre not.
39. Find a balance between rule number 37 and rule number 38.
40. Count the days until you see him again. Closing your eyes at night knowing you can scrape another day of your list is great.
41. Dont count the days until you will see him again. Knowing that only 10 out of 60 days have passed so far is a really good way to ruin your mood.
42. Find a balance between rule number 40 and rule number 41.
43. Frequently remind him that you miss him. Thats the one thing you dont want him to forget.
44. Dont frequently remind him that you miss him. You dont want to seem desperate.
45. Find a balance between rule number 43 and rule number 44.
46. Find distractions. Doing things, especially fun things, that keep your mind off of your LDR prevent you from going, well
nuts.
47. Dont find distractions. You know whats worse than sitting alone at home feeling like shit because you miss him? Sitting in a bar packed with all of your friends feeling like shit because you miss him.
48. Find a balance between rule number 46 and rule number 47.
49. Think about your LDR. Its hard enough as it is, so having a few strategies wont hurt.
50. Dont think about your LDR. You will only end up making stupid lists entitled: Simple rules for surviving a LDR or something like that.
51. Find a balance between rule number 49 and rule number 50.
52. Tell yourself it couldnt possibly get any worse than it already is. Maintaining a positive attitude is always a good idea.
53. Dont tell yourself it couldnt possibly get any worse than it already is. Just when you think it couldnt, it just did.
54. Find a balance between rule number 52 and
.fuck it, you wont find a balance anyway
. so stop trying!!
There you have it, a LDR captured in 54 rules. And people wonder why I am so tired all of the time
That was the whole point, showing you how confusing it is
You could have speared us of part 2 cause is more confusing then the first one :P But where would have been the fun then, right? :)
(To keep this readable the He form is used even though the She form would be just as valid, LDR stands for long distance relationship)
1. Communicate as much as possible. Dont make the distance longer than it already is by not calling or emailing.
2. Communicate as little as possible. Picture the loneliness and sadness you felt before he called. Now double it and you know how you will feel after the two of you hang up.
3. Find a balance between rule number 1 and rule number 2.
4. Talk about what you would be doing right now if you were together. Sharing those fantasies will closen the gap between the two of you.
5. Dont talk about what you would be doing right now if you were together. It will only remind you of the fact that you arent doing those things right now and youre not together.
6. Find a balance between rule number 5 and rule number 6.
7. Share your greatest moments with each other. Talking about the great stuff going on in your lifes will make you feel more together.
8. Dont share your greatest moments with each other. Know the feeling that you get when youre a part of something great happening to your partner? Well, youre not a part of it, youre a bystander.
9. Find a balance between rule number 7 and rule number 8.
10. Fight. The last thing you want is a lot of unspoken issues standing between you or 10.000 frustrations coming out at once when you finally do see each other.
11. Dont fight. You know how hard it is to resolve a fight? Triple that and you know how hard it is to resolve one over the phone or via mail. Without the hugging, kissing and that look in his eyes telling you that the two of you are alright again, its really hard to tell if you are. Besides, without the whole making up part, there really isnt any fun left in fighting.
12. Find a balance between rule number 10 and rule number 11.
13. See each other as much as possible. Being together are the moments that make it worth while.
14. Dont see each other too often. Remember that feeling I was telling you about after he hangs up the phone? Thats nothing compared to how you will feel after just spending a few days together and suddenly being alone again.
15. Find a balance between rule number 13 and rule number 15.
16. Be honest. A LDR is hard enough without being able to share all of your feelings with the person closest to your heart.
17. Dont be honest. How would you feel if he would tell you about what a great time he is having without you, not missing you or having doubts about whether he can keep up with this LDR? Exactly. Dont do that to him either.
18. Find a balance between rule number 16 and rule number 17.
19. Allow yourself to feel sad or lonely. If those feelings are there then it would be unhealthy to suppress them.
20. Dont allow yourself to feel sad or lonely. Once you go down that path its pretty much downhill from there.
21. Find a balance between rule number 19 and rule number 20.
Part 2 coming tommorow....
I would kill for those kind of distances right now. :-D Then he could just get here by car. In my case it's about 2000km and to get to each other we have to fly 2 hours and sit in a bus for another 8 hours... :-(
Nice site! I am also in a LDR but I wont go into this subject because the distance is not the biggest problem in my case anyhow. (And a distance of 65 km. will probably only make you laugh..)
@Beau: Dat wel, maar dat afscheid wat er steeds op volgt :-S
het was dertien uur vliegen van hem naar mij en andersom, een kwelling.
Toch zo heerlijk dat weerzien steeds.
Regels maken het ingewikkeld.
Mij regel is: Hou het simpel!
*proest* il ach nog het meest om die regels: "find a balance between .. and .." :-)
very true!
Sorry your bf doesn't have a computer job, would make distance much shorter.
@Marcel: you're absolutly right on that one, it was the best way I could think of to show you how it feels to be in a LDR...
@Ruxandra, this rules a as confusing as having a LDR. :-P
@Marcel: Being in a LDR IS the shortest way into psychiatry ;-)
@Ruxandra: I know
Very confusing rules if you want my opinion :))
OMG. Thinking about all those things would drive me crazy. Are you sure this is not made for showing the shortest way in to psychiatry?
Or should produce a negative feedback for LDR?
There's a site for everything and everyone these days. There's a site urging Lindsay Blowhan to eat and there is a site providing proof that Tom is really nuts (My favorite parts where the ones saying that if Tom marries Katie each of his wives will have been 11 years younger than the previous one and the part where they tell Tom wears braces and a reader asks if vitamines and exercise can't straighten out his teeth). Well, not as nuts as he will go when the people of the Free Katie site have their way. And president Bush gets his very own site as well.
To be expected in the near future: "Please don't let Paris wed in Westminster Abbey", "Dear Angelina why don't you just have babies with Brad?" and "Britney isn't fit to be a mother". And ofcourse I am still hoping for the "Help SillyCrazyMe raise money for an appartment" site ;-)
@Sillyme: Any house that I can live in together with BF is a dreamhouse ;-) Have a great day as well.
Good luck with raising money for your dreamhouse!! have a nice night and fijne donderdag!! Groetje Silly
You mean Paris who wats to marry on a location reserved for English royalty? She claimed to be the closest thing to American royalty anyway, so what was the problem? :-S
Why do al those famous people think the world is a supermarket, where you can get everything for money?
I can't believe it's just Tuesday. Feels like I have been working for days again...
When I blogged this it wasn't ;-)
nietus, it's wednesday silly;)
:-P
I'm really happy reading this on wednesday. :)
@Sylans: Right now it is impossible for BF to come and live with me in Romania I'm afraid. Otherwise, the idea would be great.
Nog even volhouden, morgen gaat de week alweer doormidden!
Morgen zagen we de week weer doormidden.
Tell me about it.....
ow come on scm,big hug from holland!
XXX
BF should come to live with you in R.
The both of you can start a company.
Using dutch knowledge about whatever, and make money there.
Apparently so. Bands who performed at one of the many concerts saw their record sales going up after the gig.
(Speaking about making money. did everyone see the Donation button above the shoutbox? :-D)
But lets just call that an unforseen side effect. And lets all sign the petition here or here or here. Or have a blast and sign them all (I know I did). I know the problems in Africa are way more complicated than the ones that can be solved by a big bag of money. I know, that as long as there are still bad regimes, inequality and badly organised institutes there will be children dying of hunger. But it's a step in the right direction isn't it? It's a positive motivation for everyone to try harder.

@RobertK: No way, I would pick Tom Hanks (cause he's in the video as well) and hope for a long email correspondance. He may not be cute or handsome or anything but he's a brilliant actor and intelligent as well so I think I could have great conversations with him.
helemaal gelijk!!!!!!!!!!
En ook al hebben er mensen weer commentaar op deze actie! We moeten toch iets doen?! Wij kunnen in ieder geval onze stem laten horen en op onze manier duidelijk maken dat we dit niet meer willen!! Take care Groetje Silly
Who would you pick? And don't say Brad Pitt, that's too obvious :)
@RobertK: You think I can make a request about which celebrity gets the honour of emailing me? ;-)
Doing nothing is the only thing that really doesn't help!
I signed the One declaration some time ago.
Nice side effect: I got a mail from Salma Hayek. Well, at least they made me believe so :)
nu eerst die G8 even afwachten...
we petitiejen wat af..moet toch impact hebben ergens.
I am sick and tired of having to wait for an appartment. I know, we haven't even been waiting that long when you compare it to some people who have been waiting for years and years already. But basically, we are either too young or too old, we don't have enough money, we have too much money, we're not registered long enough, we didn't apply in time. Yuk.
I really don't want to leave Romania, I don't. I love this country, I am crazy about it. But it's the only way to be with my boyfriend and right now, that's more important than anything else in the world. And as long as I have to leave this country, better make it soon so I can be with him.
But no appartment means no way to be together. And it is driving me nuts! I wish we somehow had the money to just rent one, not through the government, but on the free market. Or even buy one. I thought about robbing a bank. But the general opinion of the people around me is that it's not a very smart idea, eventhough it would probably solve my housing problem for a very long time, one way or another! :-)
So, how to make a lot of money in a short time? (I think we already established that the weblogging is not the way to go.) Did you people see this?
I think I will just steal their idea. It's about 2000 km from here to Holland. An average of 50 kilometers a day. So, I should be able to do it in 40 days. Lets add a few days for resting. Lets add 8. So, 48 days. That can be done right? I will walk from here to my boyfriend in Holland if I raise enough money with that to rent an appartment for at least 6 months or more or buy one. How about that?
I will bet you a beer that I can't even raise enough money to buy the curtains for my new appartment :-D
UPDATE: I was right, so far, there have been only two people who promised to sponsor me if I would actually do this and a total amount of 30 euro's.
UPDATE: 35 euro's so far. I am glad to say nobody came up with the idea yet to scrape this money together and make me put my words into action. :-D
Although I have to admit, I would actually be stupid enough to do it if I would get enough money for it :-)
@Sylans: What good is starting a company in Romania going to do me when I plan to move back? To really make a profit with a company you have to put in several years.
@Renesmurf: I know :-)
Dat is even vervelend zeg.
Ze verzinnen allemaal regels en je hebt er alleen maar last van.
Uiteindelijk zal het vast wel goed komen!
Wat te denken van een bedrijf in Roemenie?
Hoe is dat?
Veel regels of juist niet?
Bijvoorbeeld een drukkerij of zoiets.
@Marcel: I know love has no guarantees. But I'ld rather wake up in 2 years from now knowing it didn't work out than knowing we didn't try. Anyway, right now, it is impossible for him to move here, but maybe in a few years we will move back together.
@SillyMe: Close to where the Puma lived! :-D
I know a couple from Romania. He is trying to get to Germany whgere she lives, but he has a lot of problems 'buying' himself free from his boss. I guess it's tough getting everything settled, but they can't live witout eachother much longer. I hope you will find some peace soon too ;)
Hang in there!
hard choce to make!!
Housing problems all over the world i gess.
Take care and try al your resourses.... welke plaats/stad zoek je een huis? Kan wel eens voor je vragen.
Greetzzz Silly
I hope you will find a solution for your "housing" problem, i really do. I also hope that you will never be sorry for your choise with your boyfriend. Love is without warranty. Only advice that i can give you, old men is talking, if you make the choise of giving up Romania for your boyfriend, never look back and start a sentence with: "If I would have stayed in Romania". I think if you leave Romania, a part of you will stay there. I hope not that part that makes your boyfriend love you.
OMG!!! Give me cigarettes!!!Give me coffee!!! Give me something to help me get over this shock!!! I was speechless again, for the second time this week!!! And I think I am going to need a whole lot of therapy to recover from that! Damn you Britney!!!! Why did you need to dress like that??!
p.s. Calmed down a bit. Read the hilarious comments that the people of this website put with this picture. Made me relax. Maybe if I now quickly go and have some coffee and a cigarette as well I can escape from having to go to therapy. Just maybe. It's hard to tell.
Let me be clear: I don't mind the belly. The belly looks nice, eventhough she shouldn't have to show use her belly this much. But hey, if it had just been the belly, I would not have had a problem. And there is definitly no rule against pregnant woman looking sexy. In fact, I think most pregnant woman look beautifull. But man, the awfull clothes that don't even match, those boots, the lack of a bra, the huge sunglasses and the exagerated display of her belly all together is more than I can take.
@Karin: Not a stupid question at all. Preferaby, the comments should be in English, sine this is a weblog written in English. But if that is a problem, then you can put them in dutch as well. You see, I am very easy going :-D
ik heb er ook niet zo'n last van moet ik zeggen..... ik vind de laarzen oerlelijk maar haar buik prachtig....
Apart from the boots not matching the skirt I think Brit looks kind of sexy (or is there a rule against pregnant women looking sexy?).
Well, it's not the first time I'm accused of having bad taste :)
AAAaaarrrggghhh... I'm blind!!
Alles voor de line up.
And into a few weeks she will show it the world completely naked in Vanity Fair.
Smaak heeft ze niet, omdat ze altijd aangekleed wordt natuurlijk.
Oh, het zal je mama zijn!! Brrr......
(maar dat denk ik wel vaker.. misschien valt het allemaal nog wel mee)
Have a very nice weekend!! Take care
XXXSillyme
Er zijn grenzen. Dta zeg ik de laatste tijd wel vaker!
Bij de weg, stomme vraag misschien, maar moeten de reacties perse in het engels?

Blunt sees the point you're making abou the bra, but the boots girl...
the boots rule very hard ;)
Blunt sees the point you're making abou the bra, but the boots girl...
the boots rule very hard ;)
What's wrong with this pic?
@Marcel: That's agood idea indeed
@Beau: It's the boots, it's bnot the belly but the way she shows it, it's the awful skirt, and the ugly top, it's the fact that she isn't wearing a bra when she obviously should have, it's everything combined and it's the fact that it's Britney. That's it. Although I am sure I could come up with more :-D
It's the boots, not the babybelley.
*hates Brintney anyhow*
Iehhhhhh, this is really killing my weekend. Valium I need Valium.
There it is again. That itch inside my brains. Why did you have to say that Ruxi? I think I just have been traumatised and scarred for life. ;-)
Imagine how she will be in her 9th month of pregnancy :D
As of last midnight, Romania has lost many of it's millionaires. Including myself. No, we didn't move or die (would I be writing this if I did?). We simply got a new currency.
Or actually, we still have the same currency. But due to the fact that the economy is doing so good and the Lei has become so strong (and partially to make a futher swith to the euro easier) the government has decided to cut a few zero's of our bank notes. Four (!) to be exact. Starting from today this new Leu greu as it is called (meaning heavy lei) will be in circulation.
Both the old and the new bank notes will be valid untill the end of the year after which the new lei will be the only valid one.
I know this is not only a good thing but also a very necessary one. All those zero's were getting quite confusing. A taxi ride to work will now be 7 lei instead of 70.000 and I can do my shoppings with 70 lei instead of 700.000.
But still, I will sure miss the feeling of opening my wallet and finding a one million bank note there. The feeling of being a millionaire. Ah well, it was nice while it lasted...
No, you're right about those zero's I think it will make the recalculating easier than switching from the guilder to the euro
wow, that's a big change. It's strange to imagine that you have to pay with 70.000 for a taxiride.
I can not judge if this is a good thing as I am not in romenia, but I can still say that it was very hard for me to adjust to the EURO al the calculating.
But if they only cut a few zero's it easy to calculate isn't it.
This is very bullshit story what i'm telling. but my head is not very clear to make a good story, just typing and typing and typing...I will shut up now..
You're right, but I don't have high hopes that I will become a millionaire with the new currency. Unless I win the lotery ofcourse ;-)
Yeah, but before you were a millionaire without the millions actually worth something. But now if you are a millionaire you really can feel that you are one :D
