Maybe this is a strange topic. I mean, as much as I believe in fate, I don't necessarily believe in "signs"...just pleasant coincidences. So anyway, on with the story...
My SO lives in Brazil. The school year runs differently there than it does in the U.S. and since he was an exchange student in the U.S., he missed the first semester of his senior year in Brazil. Their second semester just started Monday. Now, this whole him being back in school thing has seriously hindered the 4+ hour Skype video calls we had gotten used to every night. It's two hours later there than it is here, and he goes to bed around 9:00 or 10:00 now since he's back in school. That's 7:00 or 8:00 my time. To give me something to do once he went to bed for the last three nights, I've been writing him an email for when he gets home from school before I go to sleep. So tonight, I'm listening to my iTunes as usual, just finishing up on my email, getting ready to go. And I'm missing him bad. Like, on the verge of tears bad. As I'm writing about how much I miss him, the song changes. And the new song isn't just any old song. It's the song that I consider to be "our" song. Like, I don't know, it just fits us. So anyway, something about the whole situation just brightened my mood a little. I still cried, but I felt a little better than I did before.
Which brings me to my point...
Have any of you guys had an experience like this, when you were feeling a little down about missing your SO and something reminded you of them really specifically? Did it make you feel better? Or did it make you miss them more?
Oh, and, just for fun, this is the song:
