My other half has been away for THREE months. It’s strange, but to me this is normal. We have always had bouts of long distance since we met 5 years ago. So, it’s not too bad.
People are constantly asking me “aren’t you sad,” “don’t you miss him,” “how do you do it”. They always have to add the fact that “I could never do that”
Well, message to all of you. Things are fine. I survive. It makes our relationship stronger and sure as hell makes us appreciate the time that we do spend together.
Of course I miss him. I wish that he was here when I hear strange noises on the fire escape. I wish that he was here when my tummy hurt and I need to whine to someone. I wish he was here so that I could enjoy dinner with someone every night. But I enjoy having the whole bed to myself.
The fact that we are both very independent people helps. I have always done my thing, when I want to do something, I do it. I don’t ask permission from him. As he does his own thing. We converse about everything, but in the end, we are both going to do what we want to do.
I can’t say that our relationship is perfect, NO RELATIONSHIP IS. But, it works for us. We are happy. We do our own thing. And in the end, we come home to each other.
