sammi
i met him on the 18th of june, nearly two months ago now. we haven't seen each other since his birthday, the 22nd of july, nearly one month ago.

sammi is my boyfriend, we made it official. i don't think he considers me his girlfriend, though. he isn't behaving like a boyfriend should anymore. he said that he lost all feelings, not just regarding me, but in general. i don't quite know what to do. i've been asking him to meet and he never made time. i'm seeing him on sunday and i don't know what to expect. i feel like i want to break up with him but then again, i haven't seen him in so long. i need him closer if he wants to be my boyfriend. i don't like this distance. i don't know if he wants to be my boyfriend.

the last time i saw him was a week before i left for vienna. i was hesitant to go. he said i shouldn't worry, he won't leave me. he lied. he left. i don't want to beg for his attention anymore. i want him to *want* to see me. he was different in the beginning, i don't know what changed. it seems to always go like this. no-one ever tells me what i did wrong, they always say it isn't my fault. but this is the third time someone is leaving without giving me a reason, so it's hard not to notice the pattern. and it seems that i am the common denominator.

he hasn't left me yet. but i'm scared of what he'll say on sunday. i'm scared of what *i'll* say. this is not the carefree teenage romance i want. this is not what i imagined having a boyfriend to be like. i don't know what i imagined. i want to get ice cream, go swimming, visit museums, seee movies, all those things. i want to kiss at the door, i want to put my head on his shoulder, i want people to see that he is mine and i am his.

we were on the bus once and he wiped away some lipstick from the corner of my mouth with his thumb. a girl a few seats down said "i think i just witnessed romance..." and i had to laugh. all of my friends said that we look good together. we complement each other. i want this to work out. i like him a lot. i'll try my best when i see him. i'll let him talk and then decide. i want to know if he is willing to put in effort for me. make time for me.
