Hey PT!
I'm new here and i don't really know how all this is supposed to go.
I came to virginia about three years ago for school. I met THE MOST amazing guy when he was in jail. I met him through my cousin whose known him for a long time.
Over the past year we have gotten really close. I'll drive 20 minutes up the road to go visit him in jail. I love him so much and it hurts me so much to know that we can't be together like we both want.
he got sentenced and got his time and I just found out that he was moved to Deep MEadow out in state farm, VA. I was devastated. My 20 min drive is now going to be like two hours!
Not only that, but since he was just moved, i have to wait for him to be cleared before i can see him. I'm worried about him all the time because i'm scared something is going to happen to him and i can't be there.
This is killing me because i love him with all my heart but i don't know if i can do this. He's only my boyfriend so we have no real comittment and i can't even really be with him.
I have no support; my family and friends are against our relationship. I feel so alone all the time. I'm crying writing this because he's the only person who is really in my corner and hes not here!
Thank you for letting me get this all out. I really have no one to talk to.
Sincerely,
Luvemesumhim :broken:
Somebody please help me! I don't know what to do!

First of all, welcome to PTO! You will find lots of information and support here as you walk this path. You won't be alone with all of us at PTO by yoru side.

Second, breathe. Just stop and breathe. Even though it feels like it, this is not the end of the world, just the start of a bumpy patch in the road. Deep Meadows is an intake and it is west of Richmond. Best thing you can do is read this thread (http://www.prisontalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=265832) that tells about what to expect and how to handle things.

Take it one day at a time and you will get through this. It is very scary and frustrating not knowing what to expect and the worry can consume you. Keep in mind he is the one that is incarcerated and while you can help, he needs to learn how to handle it. Once he clears medical, you can go visit and just sitting across the table will give you both a lift.

Holler if you have any questions. We are here to help!
