Dealing with being apart.

[Questalace]

I was curious to how others would deal with being apart from, well, anything that means alot to them so I decided to make this thread to ask you all what you do when your away from that precious thing.

Post your solutions and I apologise if this has been done before,

I cannot find any apt way of taking my mind of my girlfriend who has went away for two weeks but I guess music and friends have helped me a great deal so, I would say music and friends.

I've never actually learned how to. Which is sad, because at the moment that is the largest reason I don't have a girlfriend.

I've tried the not caring route, ended poorly.
I tried the regular contact route, ended in jealous fury (This was more likely due to who it was rather than the method, but I'd rather not try it again so soon.)

So I'm afraid I am adviceless. (A word I just made up)

I bottle up my emotions inside and unexpressed WHERE THEY BELONG!

I've learned to adapt, so it doesn't really affect me.

Essentially what I'm saying here is "Become a cold, emotionless prick".
I give good advice.

And yet that badge claims you're toasty.

I basically just end up forgetting to be quite honest. My memory is...poor at best, so that sometimes, even the things that mean the most to me, I end up forgetting that I miss them the majority of the time. Distractions help that process a long quite often.

If it something like my xbox generally I'm doing something vaguely consuming if I've actually been removed from it.

Stuff like my girlfriend I just think about seeing her again or take up my time with the xbox.

Just hang out with people and keep busy doing stuff that you wanna do. Of course that actually lead me to breaking up with my then girlfriend.

So...just don't have too much fun? Dunno.

You realise that this comment got rid of your 11111 amount of comments...I hope your happy.

And just live your life and if it affects you that bad text her or something

I cannot find any apt way of taking my mind of my girlfriend who has went away for two weeks but I guess music and friends have helped me a great deal so, I would say music and friends.

That's always good.

You know you could always go out, do something. Go see a movie, or hang out with family. Do something to take a load off. Have fun.

Or, you could give her a call. See how she's doing and wait in anticipation for her arrival.

Calling her is not really an option as she's at a cadet camp; even texting is limited, but I guess my main problem is that everything fails to take my mind of her, let alone present enough fun to provide an adequate distraction.

If she really means that much to you, then, why would you want to take your mind off her? It seems that you got something good going.

Also, I think she'd be excited to hear that you were thinking about her while she was away.

I wonder how I would handle being cut off all anime and manga. I don't know if I could handle it. Okay, I probably could. I would just start reading books or something.

Being cut off from all forms of entertainment though. That might becomereally nasty. I mean, there are limits to how long I can amuse myself with my imagination. Or maybe I'll become really good at imagining things after a while. You know, creating and being completely immersed in a perfect and interesting world. Does that mean I would turn mad? By society's definitions perhaps, but what do I care about them; I'm having the time of my life in my awesome fantasy world.

How I forget about a special girl? Go on pointless rendez-vous with other girls...
It may sound mean, but it works.

Its an obvious solution to all of lifes problems

Too true.
On a serious note, not a lot. My gf works in another town during the week, so we only see each other at the weekend, Dragon Age has helped a lot, not sure what I'll do now I've completed Origins, Awakening and the DLC... twice >.>

Just remember, absence makes the heart grow fonder, missing each other during the week has made us appreciate spending time together more when we do.

Because when I think of her, I realise, just how pointless I am with out her; it just reminds me that theres still time before I can see her again and that alone brings up dread let alone the loneliness of now knowing I'm not with her, I thank you for the "exicted" comment though, that made me grin
