He and I went out to lunch Thursday before I had to work for 5. We were talking, and he received a phone call from who I like to call his "career advisor". He says a lot of "yeahs" and "oks", and I'm sure the only reason he didn't say a lot on his end is because he didn't want me to catch on to what they were talking about. Of course I asked him about it, and he said in more or less words he'd officially start working next March. Now most people would think that's awhile from now, but 8 months to me is like tomorrow. So I get all teary eyed and damn near start crying at the table. Of course he tries to console me, but that didn't work. So I sucked it up until I got home. It was an all out tear fest then. I can't believe that almost 6 months ago I was dating fruity booty, and now I'm emotionally attached to someone who's about to leave me. I won't lie, I doubt that our relationship will work. I can't see myself seeing him 12 times out the year, it makes me depressed thinking about it. But that would be my luck...I actually find someone that I care about and that treats me right, only for him to leave.
