Having a relationship with a Seaman

I started dating this man 8 months ago. He is a seaman. Knowing what kind of job he's into, this did not stop me from liking him. He was very kind and sweet. He was my best friend's cousin and they are giving a good word on this guy. We already saw each other before way back when I was in high school but had other interests and he did not pursue me since he thought I was snobbish. As we met again today, there was a spark! We dated for about a month and already felt at ease with each other. This is a good man, so I gave him a chance. 2 months ago he needed to get off and needed to be back at work. I know this would be tough. I was always worried at first especially when we are losing communication for few days but as his father said. It's really like that. You can't have 100% signal every time when you are in the middle of the sea.

I just kept myself busy and soon I was able to adjust. I'm just looking forward each day to be able to speak with him. I always make myself busy and I'm glad it works. It's sad to read some posts on facebook saying seaman's partners that was left are cheating. I can't imagine myself doing that. If you know that you love this person, there is no reason for you to look for someone else. All you need is to wait and be patient and learn to enjoy life on your own ways. Believe that you are meant to be and your relationship will definitely work.
