Missing Her..

[Zebra143]

My girlfriend and I talk endlessly each day, but she's gone for a week on a cruise without cell phone reception. It's killing me. I try to distract myself by watching endless movies, but nothing really completely helps.. Does anyone else feel this way? I feel like when she left, so did my heart. :(

ya i have had that feeling but sadly all i can really tell you is wait it out and be happy shes not gone for good.

it really is nice that you care that much :) i know it's probably horrible right now (and trust me i've felt exactly the same before) but she'll be back in a week! that hardly anything :) maybe take this time to concentrate on seeing other friends or doing things you've been meaning to do for ages. Maybe you could take up a new hobby or learn something that you can show her when she gets back, or prepare a nice surprise for her when she returns. If you really feel like you need to talk to her you could write down all the things you want to say and keep them until she's back :) hope this helps, good luck!

I'd feel exactly the same without my boyfriend. Luckily i've never had to go that long without him, but i'd say feeling like that is pretty normal.

I guess you just have to remember that it is not an infinite amount of time, that it will be over and that you will get to talk to her again. Perhaps meet up with friends or something while she's gone? It might be a better distraction than movies.

Thanks guys! I did what snowblinded suggested, and it really did help. So did the other comments. I can't wait to see her. :)

Ya, it's normal mate. However it's your chance to practice restraint. Sometimes she may need space, time away from the relationship. So get busy doing things
