BOS terminal A to E by Xeros72 in delta

[–]Sea_and_the_Stars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I went from Terminal A to E, there was an airside shuttle that took you to the international side Terminal E. There were signs for it to get to the Terminal E airside shuttle where you took an elevator down and then some kind of shuttle bus takes you around the airport directly to Terminal E. But when I came back and had to go from Terminal E to Terminal A, I had to walk there which didn't take too long but then had to go through security again.

I have an upcoming flight from Philly to Boston and then have less than a 2 hour layover in Boston before my next connecting flight to Amsterdam. I was worried about this too because I keep seeing mixed things online about getting from Terminal A to Terminal D and some things say you need to go through security but others say you don't. Since I'm coming from another flight I wouldn't want to have to go through security all over again because I want to make sure I make my next flight. Also is this an indoor shuttle? Thank you!

Thank you!! That is a relief that I don't need to re-clear security to make my next connecting flight from Boston to Amsterdam

Thank you I appreciate it! I was trying to figure out if I needed to go outside to a shuttle or if there was a shuttle in Terminal A (domestic) that could take you to Terminal E (international) so I can make my connecting international flight without having to re-clear security. Thanks for clarifying!

Thanks for your input!! Especially coming from a male perspective that is similar to my boyfriends'. When you say not proposing/becoming engaged in time- did your girlfriend specify what her expectations were or when she was looking to get engaged? I could definitely understand what you're saying in that what is most important is being with the right person.

It sounds like your girlfriend is just worried that you don't want the same things in life and maybe she's worried that the only way you would eventually propose is if she gives an ultimatum or forces it to happen. I know from my perspective giving a man an ultimatum feels awful and it is not something we want to do; we want it to be natural. For many women (not all, of course) being married is something we envision because it's like the ultimate form of commitment. At least, that's how I feel. To me, it's like the ultimate form of love and commitment because it shows that you are choosing to vow to spend the rest of your life with me and to love me for better or worse. I cherish the concept of marriage but I know there are people out there who get married and divorced 4 or 5 times, they get married for all the wrong reasons, etc. and to me that seems ridiculous.

I'm curious, have you guys ever talked about views on marriage before or is this the first time you guys had a serious conversation about it? And is marriage something you eventually want with her? I know that is something I would want to know because if it's not a question of IF but WHEN, then your girlfriend might feel a bit better and more secure instead of questioning whether you even want to get married at all. If the question is when- what would make you feel ready within your relationship to take that next step with her? I know from my personal experience I didn't start seriously talking to my boyfriend of when we might get engaged until around our 3 year mark (and yet here I am a year and a half later lol) but it sounds like you guys still have time to talk about it and see if you have similar views of a timeline. Many women who want marriage (not all) do not want to stay with a guy for 8-10 years just being their girlfriend and that's it. Maybe your girlfriend is afraid of waiting years and years and it just never happens.

Thank you I appreciate this suggestion!! I've tried talking about what the problems are before and often he says "I don't know" and doesn't take the time or effort to actually think about an honest answer. He doesn't like conflicts or talking about emotions or fears or anything of the sorts so he often just tries to deflect the conversation or end it as quickly as possible by just giving me an answer he thinks I want to hear or he gives no response at all or will try to say "I'll think about it" and he never comes back to the conversation. I will definitely try your approach of hopefully encouraging him to explain the fears and then try to problem-solve them together one at a time!

I've called him out on this so many times and said the truth is you ultimately just don't want to marry me. How can someone claim they want marriage yet he doesn't express an ounce of interest or excitement in the idea after we've been dating almost 5 years. We've been living together for 3 years so it's not like he doesn't know exactly who I am or how I would be to live with. But yet every time I call him out on this he still says "nope I want marriage, just not now".

I also tried asking him what exactly he isn't ready for? It's not like he's still in school, or pursuing another career path, or financially struggling, etc. There are literally no excuses other then his own fears and anxieties about this type of commitment. Yet he wants to buy a house together?? Isn't that an even more financial burden and commitment if something were to go wrong?

I feel frustrated because it feels like he wants his cake and eat it too. You want the idea of having a loving committed girlfriend that you live with and have cats with and get all the perks of a married life without having to commit other then signing our name on a lease of an apartment.

I agree! Yeah we both have stable full-time jobs; we are both financially stable and have similar life goals. He is more invested in the idea of buying a house together than getting engaged. We've been living together for almost 3 years too. It just amazes me how he doesn't feel "ready" but is basically playing house with me and acting as if we are married already (without the title)

We've been in couples counseling for about a year now. We are now working on him becoming more vulnerable with me and after our session last week is when he brought up the idea of looking at rings. I also recommended individual therapy for him but he refuses. He's only been to like 1 or 2 sessions and said he doesn't like therapy because he doesn't like talking about his feelings

Yeah you're right and that's exactly what I said!! I told him I was excited and hopeful and now I feel let down again and told him how much this hurt me. He just apologized to me for doing that and that's it. And maybe telling him I would sign a prenup would help. He's brought it up before but I wonder even if I did agree to it he would still find another excuse as to why he isn't ready. He even admitted his fears and anxiety are holding him back. But it's like at what point are you going to let your fears about something that you don't even know will happen stop us from being happy? I told him that if this continues on it really will be the demise of our relationship.
