I need his touch

Hi everyone. Im engaged & we live in different cities about 1.5 hrs apart. Im going to school here & works full-time. We dont see each other for 1-2 weeks at a time. I know that there are other longer-distance relationships that go much longer without seeing each other, but I feel like I dont see him for ages at a time. I miss him so badly, and I just feel like I need his touch, his company, his comfort..everything about him. He doesnt have as hard a time not seeing me, he says its probably b/c I live alone & he lives with his family so I get lonely easier. Its like not having enough air to breath, or water to drink..I dont know, maybe its b/c I just want to move on with my life. I have another year after this before Im done school, so how can I deal with it? I cant believe I have another year and a half of this *sob*

Hi idreamy,


Our Relationships Channel has a message board that deals with this topic.

I'm sorry it's so tough for you right now...I've never been in a long-distance relationship, so I can only imagine. I also wish I had more words of wisdom to offer...I guess you probably already keep in touch via email, instant messaging, phone, etc? But I know it's not the same thing as being near him. Hang in there...maybe those messages boards that Ruth mentioned will have some more ideas.

Hugs,

Rose

To everyone, THANK YOU :) You really made my day. I really appreciate your responses. Im trying to take advantage of the fact that being away makes the time we have together that much more special. I will be sure to check out the long distance relationship board! I had no idea there is one!
Caly, thanks for sharing your beautiful poem! Im just remembering way back when you were struggling with a lot of things, and now you seem so happy. It really makes me smile :D

Love you all
