Okay so girls here is what went down and what may or may not happen
Brent and I have had a long distance relationship for almost 4 years now and it is draining on both of us. Another thing is that neither of us has ever really dated anybody else and this is difficult on us because we are both a little unsure about whether we are making the right decision for our future companionship. Well while I have been out here I have come to realize that I am not able to call ourselves ‘in a relationship’ since we are in fact 1500 miles apart and we were both kinda agreeing to that. So I am fortunate enough that Brent and I were both aware of what we were being told by the Holy Ghost and that by making this decision to take a break instead of breaking up we are doing what is best for our relationship. Brent and I have decided that we need to pursue our relationship in a normal fashion that will allow us to do everything that we need to do in order to be prepared to be married and in a relationship, even if it is not with each other. I feared that this would happen for a long time and it did but to tell you the truth I feel no regret and no want to alter the past so this is definitely a good sign. I am glad that we are still on speaking terms and friends and that we both did and knew what was best for us right now. I know that I am supposed to be in DC and that I am not supposed to be in a relationship right now I also know that by following my promptings to take this action it will be easier to take actions in the future that will help me in life. By that really long sentence I mean by following promptings now it will help ensure that I get more and will train me more to follow them.
Summary of the story is this. Brent and I both had promptings, or so he says, that were telling us to take a break and to wait until I am back in Orem before we can pursue a romantic relationship. SO this may or may not be a permanent thing but if it is I know that I made the right decision and that Brent made the right decision. This to me is a testimony of the living truth that the gospel is real today and that there are still revelations given and not just to the elite but to all of us. I know that by following these revelations I am doing what Heavenly Father wants of me and what I expect of myself.
