Great. Just great.
So, it's been going on a while. Ben would call, talk about his separation anxiety and then get mad at me for leaving him. I thought it would be fine. Only two months to go, I said at one point. And then it progressed to, only 50 more days to go. Today it's 48. But his anxiety is quite a bit worse, now that it's been over a month and I'm on the other side of the world.
Today he asked me to go back to Pittsburgh sooner so that we can be together longer. I understand that he wants to see me as soon as possible and I would like to oblige. However there's also the fact that I get home from China on August 3, and if I were to go back any earlier, I'll have barely spent any time with my parents at all. I can't just go home, say hello and be off. If I go back to Pittsburgh when he wants me to, I'll be too tired to even say hello because I haven't even recovered from jetlag yet.
We were in a pretty heated argument today. He seems to think I won't go back simply because my parents don't want me dating him and I think it will tip them off. He doesn't even consider the fact that I see my family for less than two months a year and it would be nice to spend some time with them when I can.
The argument descended to a point where Ben demanded my home phone number so he could call my mother, tell her what the deal is and declare that he'll never give me up, he loves me so much. As flattered as I am by his attentions, it's not going to help our situation. If anything, it could quite possibly make things horribly worse. Besides, meeting my parents over the phone is not the best introduction, even if it was a conference call. I told him that, and he doesn't understand. But then, he doesn't have Chinese parents, and so it would be difficult for him to understand.
So our conversation ended with something along the lines of Ben saying that "this" is all ridiculous, he gives up, my parents hate him, good bye. So what exactly does that mean? I'm horribly upset over the fact that he might have dumped me because of my parents.
I'm not going to let it get to me at work. I'm not.
