Pity Party!

I'm missing EAP this week. He has been so busy trying to finish his job we haven't had but a few minutes to talk on Monday and one or two short emails since then. A few waves in the hallway, but nothing more. I have been so spoiled and I guess this is what I will need to get used to since he will be leaving my bldg in a week or two. It doesn't help that work load is a little slow right now on my end, so I have extra time to think about him. I just miss the daily catching up about what is going on with each other and being in contact with him. Throwing my own pity party, wanna join me?

It is a rotten feeling when that closeness you've been used to takes a hit.

We got a chance to reconnect today, spent a half hour or so catching up outside since it was a nice day here. He apologized again for not being as attentive. I know he was busy and thought it was cute that he was apologetic. He stopped in to see me but I was away from my desk and he tried to call yesterday, but we didn't connect. At least I know he was thinking about me. :)We're both off tomorrow for separate family wknd trips, but have plans for next Friday to spend some time together, probably lunch, so I have that to look forward to.

I don't think we'll be visiting each others' bldgs once he moves, but we will pick each other up for lunch dates, etc. Yes it would be strange for us to be visiting each other since we really have no reason to be in each others' bldgs. Meeting up will not be an issue. As far as contact, we do email, but just short ones. You never know who is checking the email and he is more careful than I am with that. Mostly we talk in person now, so we will probably have to move that to the telephone during work hours and commutes. We both have BB so I have to figure out the IM thing, that may work.
He won't be leaving until after Labor Day, so we have a few more weeks. I don't know how things will change once he moves. He knows I am concerned about it and has been very reassuring that we will continue to see each other so I can get my "fix" as I call it. I will be disappointed if things stall, but I have no control over it and it certainly won't be stalling from my end! You're right though, I will still have made a good friend that I shared some fun times with and I don't regret that at all.

Have you had a chance to talk to your AP yet or are you just keeping quiet? I am sure once things settle down with your new job, if you both want to you will find a way to continue things. You'll just have to make a conscious effort to plan more the times you chat/IM/see each other.

Sounds like you have a plan!
