Feel like I haven't done my homework.

Status of life - see below
Random acts of promotion keep happening to me.
At work - the post that I was mildly hankering after has been given to me. I am surprised at how easy it was.
More responsibility. more travelling. more power. a more impressive title.
Swe---eet.
the whole climbing up the ladder thing seems to have happened without any angst on my part.
it seems to me that life is like crushes
the ones you dream about and who cause you to break out in sweaty ugliness are the ones you have to cry and eat your brains out and bloody beat down crazy females to get. Point case - the boy
And the ones who are ok and who you don't mind hanging out with are the ones who just fall on your lap.
WTF?

The boy got taken out for lunch on friday by client and offered brilliant position with offer of salary that blows my mind.
And still, no word about his work visa.

So all in all, we seem to be morphing into one of those successful couples - jobwise.
But sucking big time Relationship wise
There are moments of clarity (which happens only when we are physically together) that I know that he is absolutely perfect for me.
When all these skirmishes and annoyances seem to dissipate and the clouds part and i can see clearly.
But when apart, there are too many variables and too much mental space between.
The more the genetically reticient boy leaves out from phone conversations, the less I feel part of his life.
NO correction - the more the boy thinks need not be mentioned because it is 'irrelevant' or because they are labelled under 'things that might upset me' like his mother having an accident, the more I feel shut out.
Oldbossman told me he and wife almost broke up right before their wedding.
I believe him.
This whole bloody living apart and waiting patiently and being hopeful and putting our faith in love and all that jazz is pure, unadulterated excretum
