Tonight we survived our first fight since we started seeing each other again*, which, all things considered is actually pretty good. When you look at all of the baggage from before that we've had to work through to get this far, and our first fight was today, over something unrelated to our previous relationship, I think that's pretty good. Nonetheless, we had a fight, on the worst possible night since tomorrow he has to go out of town for job training. He'll only be gone five days at a time, but distance never proved itself to be good for us, but its not the same relationship, and its different circumstances, so Im trying not to let previous experience dictate how I cope with the next four weeks. But, to have a fight on top of that (not even related to his going away) would have just stress to an already complicated matter.
But, we're good now. We worked it out and we're good. It didnt just end with one of us giving in for the sake of keeping things settled, we fought, and then we talked it out and we're good. And I'll see him again *sigh* next Monday.
*We started going on dates again on April 30th.
