October 5,1994 Campus Opinion Editorial' Long distance dating l>7 Keii VanDoren 1 get to see him almost every week end and I get to talk to him almost every night,but it'sstillK)ugh. Irefeiing to my long distance relationship \(1th my toyfriend Scott who is going to school at UNCC. The weeks drag on until Friday afternoon when 1 usually get to see him. Everyone who knows me has heard me say at least once ‘1 miss my boy friend!” I’m always saying it. We just parted tonight at 7:30 p.m. ^en he had to leave to go back to school, and now at 9 p.m. I already miss him. I know the phone companies love us. I haven’t gotten the bill for Septem- beryet, but 1 think it’s going to be near the $ 100 mark. Charlotte students' long distance telephone calling access is like a debt c^, and his ran out, so every night I get to pay when we talk. fefore we left for school we didn't imagine it would be this hard. I don’t meanstaying ^hful. We are extremely loyal and committed. 1 trust him com pletely. However, I do worry about him all the time. Two weeks ago he had to wodc all weekend at school and on top of that he was sick with a cold that was goingaround. Hewassupposedtocall at 8 p.m., which gave him plenty of time to get in, shower, eat and relax. A short time after 8 p.m. I called, and he still wasn’t back. I didn’t panic until 9 p.m. He dxln’t evenget in until 9:30 p.m. I was so worried something happened to hiia One of the worst parts is ttiat it is really expensive for him to drive back every weekend and us still be able to go out. He will not let me pay for anything. Soon he won’t be able to come back every weekend as he has done. I had al^ys been told that long distance relationships were hard, but I never Imagined that it would be this hard. I miss him constantly. 1 can't even begin to imagine what it would be like if he were farther away in this state or in another state, FREE YOUR MIND WHAT: SGA’s Student Life Fo rum WHEN; October 6 (6^ p.m) WHERE: 101 Ledford Audito rium WHY: YOU can make a dif fer ence!
