Good morning, beautiful
In the interest of being utterly truthful: I woke up at 3am and fell down a rabbit hole. I caught myself thinking "don't get attached because she's leaving" — but honestly? That's rubbish.
I am attached.
So instead of spiraling, I spent the last few hours looking into the logistics of Us. I know it's scary, and I know I have my own anxieties, but I realised I don't want an exit clause.
I want a plan.
I looked up flight paths, the hours where our time zones overlap, and I've even started Swedish lessons (Jag försöker!). I know it's a long way, and I know it'll take work — but I think you're worth the air miles.
I put together a little "battle plan" of what I found. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.
I'm not saying it'll be easy. I'm saying I'm willing to try if you are.

Our Golden Hours
When my evening meets your morning
5+ hours of overlap, every single day.
That's more than most couples who live together actually talk.
The Numbers
✈️The 3-Month Rule
If we aim to see each other every 90 days, the distance becomes chunks we can count down. It's not "forever away" — it's "X weeks until."
How We Stay Close
💕What Makes It Work
Based on actual research into what successful long-distance couples do differently.
It's not about being perfect.
It's about showing up, being honest, and having something to count down to.
I know this is a lot. I know it's scary.
But I'd rather be scared with you than comfortable without you.
Yours, always
