90 Day LDR Challenge: Day 4

Day 4: What was your first impression of him/her?

Cat: I thought he was handsome and he seemed like such a sweet guy right off the bat. I don’t know how else to describe it, but I immediately felt that strange combination of butterflies and feeling like I had known him my whole life. 🙂

Richard: I thought she was very cute, really bubbly, and I knew we were going to get on like a house on fire.

90 Day LDR Challenge: Day 2

Day 2: Where do you both live, how many miles/kilometers apart are you, and what’s the time difference?

I live in Washington, DC and Richard lives in London. We are 3,226 miles apart, but hey, who’s counting, right? There’s a 5-hour time difference, but we make it work the best we can!

90 Day LDR Challenge: Day 1

Day 1: Introduce yourselves! What are your names, and ages and what do you both look like (post pics!)?

Hi! My name is Cat and my partner’s name is Richard. I’m 24 and he’s 25!

We’ve posted pictures of us on here before, but honestly, we can’t wait to have a fresh new picture for you guys when we see each other in September! 

Keep watching this space. 🙂 

FYI

So, you might have noticed that Richard and I skipped a few days there on the challenge. 

The thing is, to be 100% honest with you guys, things have been so cray over the past few weeks that we didn’t get to draw or write love letters to each other. We love that idea though! We will be doing it later in the year and we will snap pictures of us sending it to them. 

Also, we don’t play multiplayer games online. We’re going to figure out how to play multiplayer modes of Mario Kart on the 3DS (hopefully) soon. So, if that happens, I will snap a picture of that!

We’re just trying to catch up, and I hope you guys don’t mind. 

We’re just, in the words of the wonderful Tim Gunn, making it work. 🙂 

Your Love from Afar: Week 4

(Trying to do some major catch up here…)

Friday- What are your favorite things to talk about? Do you talk on a regular basis?

We talk everyday. 🙂 Our favorite things to talk about are how our days were and how we envision our future. Richard wakes up before me because of the five-hour time difference, and he usually texts me before he goes to work. His morning texts really start my day off on the right note! We always say good night to each other as well, even though it is totally not good night for me, haha. But from the moment we first talked to each other, we have always said good night to each other. It’s one of our golden rules. 🙂

Confession

I find strength in the LDR community. 

When Richard isn’t able to talk, when the days and nights just seem way too long and almost unbearable, I just get on here and feel so much better. 

You guys are the best.
