This is one of our main issues right now, our lack of jobs. We have been looking. Everywhere. And it’s so frustrating to send out resumes and not even getting a ‘Thanks, but no thanks’ reply back! We didn’t think it would be this difficult. Without jobs, we have no money. Without money, we can’t see each other in person (we can’t even send packages to each other!). And that’s eating us up from the inside. Not being able to look foward to a date, to hold the ticket in our hands (or the printout, at least) and be sure that we’ll be able to hold each other again. Lack of jobs also carry a lot of emotional baggage, it really makes you feel terrible, like nobody wants you. But we try to keep ourselves occupied with other things, to not just wait and wait and wait… It’s a different kind of waiting, waiting for a job than to wait for that meeting day to come. But mixing those two waiting feelings… it’s really taking a toll on us. So cross your fingers for us (and for all those couples in a similar economic situation), hoping that we get something soon! So we can be back to be ourselves again. Girl.#35
