alexandra k,
i know this struggle! my t left middle of decemeber. she returns next week: the excitement is building... i can't wait to hug her! compared to last year i did MUCH better during the break this year. i think my feelings were less intense, but definately the same... longing, etc. i must have handled them differently? also, the busier i was the easier was to be here without her. everyday was like a week though. it feels so ridiculous to be my age and to pine away for this person. it's never happened to me before in any relationship. i remember i cried when best friend moved a 1000 miles away when i was 16 and this is waaaaay worse than that was. i'm not quite sure what it is we are supposed to be learning in therapy... it's all so darn hard.
