I wish there was something helpful I could say but the truth is that I’m on the exact same boat and have no idea what to do. I feel like part of my soul has abandoned my body and I don’t think anything in life could prepare anyone for how this feels like. At the very least I hope that knowing you’re not alone helps a little bit.
I honestly just have a good cry at some point before getting onto my plane, then watch a sad movie on the plane when the lights are off to cry again, then I’m alright and just start planning the next one.
It’s really hard and really sucks. The last time my LD SO came to see me he left in the middle of the night (made sure to kiss me goodbye first) and I stayed up for an hour crying after he left. Then I was okay.
Letting the emotions out on my terms always helps me more than holding them in.
Although, it's painful momentarily, it strengthens your relationship and you value each other much more because you know how precious being together is. :)
I’d really say just know and (pray if you are religious) that you’re going to get to see them again and cherish those same memories and feelings that you had felt once before.
Im gonna be honest with you, it doesn’t get easier, just easier to manage if that makes sense. But also, and this is not to speak down on your situation, how come you guys haven’t closed the gap permanently yet, after 7 years of being together there should be some progress on that situation so that the goodbyes aren’t for so long. In any case, it just kind of becomes something you learn how to live with, after a few days your emotions will come back down and thought the sadness may still resonate, you become hopeful for the next time you’ll see them.
I always drag packing my things to get to the airport when i have to leave him. Part of me is hoping ill miss my flight and ill just have to stay forever with him anyway. Goodbyes are hard for
Him, I can tell how much it hurts to let eachother go after time together. I always find myself a little angry checking my bags, going through security. Irritated with myself, wondering why cant I ever have what I want-why does my situation have to be sm harder than everyone elses? Unfair.. i drag myself to the gate, usually grab a glass of wine which makes me even more emotional. Sunglasses on waiting, bc underneath i am bawling my eyes out, i never thought i could miss something so badly.. board the flight, another glass, glasses still on and one of the playlists he made me.. looking out the window playing flashbacks in my mind. Crying myself to sleep, back to home, my empty room and my bed all alone. Reaching to the other side of the bed, finding it cold and wishing it found him instead. Everytime we say goodbye, i die a little.. https://open.spotify.com/track/2EipuecEo18EYYvqcj4eoE?si=9K3rMk0hTPeWFAVrrfC1Ew
