He Just Left

 My fiance just came for a quick holiday visit. Initially he was supposed to be here for 2 weeks. It ended up being 10 days due to visa issues (he's Indian) with Canada where his layover was. I am feeling pretty bummed out. He just left yesterday morning and today I have nothing to do. I got used to waking up and going to get him and then spending all day together. The worst part for me is letting go of him while he walks through security. I can still see him but I can't touch him. Walking away alone bawling my eyes out in front of strangers doesn't help either. On the drive home I cried and noticed the places that I had been with him just hours earlier. When I got home I slept all day. When night time came I cried myself to sleep thinking of how I had only seen him that morning and wouldn't picking him up the next.

 He just called me a few minutes ago...the first time we spoke since he left. I cried again. I only have 7 more months until we are married and then I never have to say goodbye to him again!

 Ah..I hope this time goes quickly.

Hugs to you. I completely know what that is like. I think a lot of us have been through that. You are so right, though, in a few months, it will all be over and you can see him everyday! 

Zacklyalike - hang in there...Look towards the future we all have endured the distance and the feelings you have.
It seems like it will never get here but it will - stay busy and stay positive.  I found that the best way to get thru those long hard months.

Hopefully you have Skype so you can see each other and have a "piece" of him.  I slept in my DH's t-shirt the last time he was here for 2 weeks. HA I am a romantic mushy person.



hugss hon

Thanks so much.

I slept with his sweatshirt last night.

I am new to UKY and I don't know what some of these acronyms are. What is DH?

oh I had to figure that stuff out too:

Yeah, I slept in the shirt, too. And with a teddy bear that I sprayed some of his cologne on.. LOL. What a dork! I guess that's what being crazy in love but having to be apart will do to you! I remember the first time he left the states on New Years Day and me sobbing my eyes out as I took down the tree and everything.  It's so nice to be able to be together all the time now and not have to keep going through it. But, it's romantic to remember all those tearful goodbyes, so hang on to that feeling once you are together and you won't ever take him for granted.

...and he wont take you for granted either ;-)

I think most of us are big dorks in love sometimes - who else picks up their life to another country if it isn't for love?

I agree ladies! I also love the cologne but he forgot to spray some! I am just like you Jewlz! I think it's just fine to be a dork in love. Who defines a dork anyways? We LOVE! haha.

I will remember the tearful goodbyes...it is quite romantic. I really look forward though to NEVER having that feeling again!

Are you both married and living in the UK?

There's quite a few on the forum who have moved for other reasons but they are definitely braver than me! I don't think I could've just picked up on my own and moved away to a place where I didn't even know one other person! That takes some cajonés!  

Are you both married and living in the UK?

I am married and have been in UK with my hubs for a year and half now! It's been the best year and a half of my life by far! Zoyabean is recently married and will be moving here in just a few weeks! 

Very nice! What part of England are you living? My Fiance's family lives near Kingston. We (well me over the internet) are looking for apartments/flats in that area very soon! I'm so excited!

How did you meet your husbands?

I talked my DH into leaving his wonderful down duvet behind once (after I promised to bring it back and forth when I visited the UK).  I *loved* having something of his to cuddle in after he left. I used to drag it around the house with me from bed to couch to chair etc. Sort of like Linus with a HUGE blankie.

I am a total dork.

< hugs > hand in there dear

Jennie - LOL we all do that kind of stuff

I met mine in Vegas -haha - a mutual friend and the rest is history.  I will be moving to the Newcastle Area.  I know nothing of geography of England YET - I will when I get my bearings over there!

I feel for you...im bout to be leaving my gf yet again friday....like your bf im doing a short 10day holiday over here in the UK, then back off to the states. We got our longest gap if distance right around the corner, not sure when exactly we will see each other again..not looking forward to that. She just started up Uni placement today so i wont be seeing her all day like last few.

You got 7months to get married, and i have 7 months till i move here for Uni...so again i feel your pain! Im mentally done here in the states, just want to fast forward and start my life here and finish school. So these next months are gonna be rough.

Try to stay busy in any way possible, i was fortunate last time i left to be engulfed in school and work. This time around not going to be as busy, only got work...so we shall see! Im here anytime you want to talk, try to stay strong.

Hey H, this is Maria. Glad you joined!

These ladies are fabulous. I hope we will be a help to you.
