Just saw your outtakes, and you're gorgeous, so I hope you shoot again soon. Try and hook up with an official SG photog if you can.
Sorry to hear about the bad news with your mate having to travel so often. Perhaps there's a bright side to this....maybe he can accumulate frequent flyer points and fly you to where he will be or take you on some exotic vacations? I know it's not like having him there more often, but....it's the best suggestion I have.
Try not to be too down - it won't be as bad as it seems like it will be now I bet. But I totally know how you feel. I think you should practice driving down to San Jose! And we could do some more pics - this time not thinking at ALL about what might or might not get accepted. I feel sick that I compromised my artistic integrity on that last one. lol. That shot makes an awesome profile pic.
I hope that things get better for you. I'm sure that the two of you will be fine. You both love each other and when you love someone, you make the time. I know that you each will try.
As for your friend....
I know friendships come and go, but there has to be an underlying reason why all of this is happening. Do you think that your best friend might be into you? Maybe he is sad because you are with someone who brings you so much joy and happiness.
my boyfriend goes on tour a lot, so i know how it feels when they're away all the time - no fun being lonely i hope things get better though, and that's really sweet about the drum kit!!
Gotta love the pooting! Bury St Edmunds..wow Defintely a very small world!! Glad to meet someone else from Suffolk out here (makes me all warm and fuzzerz)
