writes:I met my current boyfriend this past summer while working on a cruise ship. We are both from different countries (i'm from Canada and he's from Brazil). We hit it off instantly and are crazy about each other. I had to leave to go back to Canada in September to finish off my final year of University while he stayed on the ship. He then came and surprised me in Canada for a 3 week visit and then we both ended up working together again over the Holidays on the same ship. I am currently back in Canada finishing my last semester of school and he is on the ship working until April.The problem is, we want to find a way of being together (besides working on ships because we won't always end up on the same ship each time) but with visa restrictions and us both being from different countries its hard to find a job to be together. Its extremely painful because we are both so in love and we want to overcome this and try to figure out a way of being together. We are looking into getting TEFL (teaching english as a foreign language) certified and then working away in another country for awhile, but we both know we can't do that forever. Does anyone have any advice on how we can try to break this distance and finally be able to be together, or has anyone ever experienced this difficult situation before?I'd appreciate hearing anything!
