Every time my boyfriend and I see each other again (December, March, and May-July...usually) we always have to adjust to each other. I take a lot longer than he does. After the initial ecstasy of seeing each other wears off, it's usually replaced by this "weird" feeling. The adjustment period is actually pretty painful, because there's so much expectation built into finally seeing each other again, that the "weird" feeling just creates doubt and fear with the relationship. We've found that it's easier if we've been apart for less than 4 months, any longer than that and the feeling is exacerbated. It's just scary. Does anyone else go through this? The first time it happened I scoured the internet for answers and found people talking about the same thing, but I can no longer find those supportive internet postings. We're fine after the adjustment period is over, so I try not to worry about it, but we're about to reunite in 5 days and I'm getting nervous
