Pursuing any sort of relationship would be difficult. Our lives go in very different paths. She lives in LA, teaches at a college and still has a couple more years left in the Army.
My life is based in the Pacific Northwest. I love it here and don't see myself leaving. I know she likes it here (her family is all in Seattle). She usually visits 3 or 4 times a year and we catch up in detail. I told her that she should move up. She has given it thought.
The re-adjustment to single life has been strange, but not too painful. I had a brief fling with a gal that had some promise, but fizzled.
Over the last 9 months I had that empty feeling for a while, but things are easier now. Got me a nice three bedroom house with a garage, one room for guitars, the other for projects. Been doing a lot of introspection and kinda found myself back on the eight-fold path. I've been trying to funnel that negative energy into something positive. Three hours a day of guitar practice for weeks has provided some incredible results...
All I can do is be there for her. I know she will always be there for me.
