I'm Struggling

[Louise_B]

Hey Everyone, Only me again ..

It's one of those weeks it seems. One of those weeks that i just feel like bursting into tears every minutes of the day. It gets even worse when i climb into bed. It hasn't helped Justin was away on a NCO course with the military for 4 weeks, He came back went to Iowa for July 4th weekend and now his awat in the field on exercise for the week. It just feels like i havent seen his face or heard his voice in MONTHS.

I have been super moody today with everyone i work with. I'm even snapping at Justin. Just because the fact his coming off like his ok with the distance (even though i know deep down he misses me).

I feel like such a cry baby. And i know its getting me now because al my mouth has broke out in mouth ulcers. I only ever get these when im really low down in the dumbs, I don't want to get out of bed in the mornings for work i just wanna hide from everyone.

Just a phase right? The light is at the end of this tunnel? I just want to be with him so bad! But not just for a visit but to close the distance! its not to much to ask for right?

Sorry everyone Moan moan moan moan!!!

Yes! And it's not too much to ask to close the distance, but you just have to be patient.. Really, one day you two will be together for good, and the time you spend apart now will be nothing in comparison to the time you'll be happy together later. Just hang on there and know that the sun is always shining behind the clouds. Just wait for it to come out Sending you lots of positive energy and hugs!

I've felt like that the previous week, so i can really understand :/ I'm aware there's nothing I can say to make you feel better, cos the only thing that matters now is having your SO close. You'd like to tell him everything thats going through your mind but at the same time your 'rational side' knows it's just a phase so it's not worth 'annoying' him with it, right?
Try to be patient for few days and find something that can keep you VERY busy (said the one who spent the last few days in the same i-dont-wanna-do-anything-except-for-staying-with-him mood ;D)
Hugs!

I'm sorry honey I know it's hard.

I understand how you feel. My BF isn't in the military. I know that adds extra pressure and I can't imagine how that feels.

But there are some days that I'm moody. And I just want a hug. And I can't have one. It's a very frustrating feeling. I see people talk about closing the distance and I'm happy for them. I just wish that could be me. It'll be at least a year until I move to Texas (where my Bf lives.) I have to finish up school here first. I'm currently in North Carolina.

We're having a visit shortly, but I just want to close the distance. I'm ready for the day I don't have to worry about plane tickets. And don't have to miss him so much.

I know I'm not alone in this frustration. Gives me some comfort. That's why I enjoy reading and posting. I like the sense of community! Hugs!

I struggle in the nights too. sigh it's so hard because we lived with each other for 6 months before we went LD.

Feeling frustrated is a understatement right? i just keep seeing couples on my way to work and home. it really gets to me. Usually i can brush it off but the past week i havent been able to do so. But yes i totally get where your coming from. Im super happy everyone is closing the distance dreams do come true. But i just cant wait until the time where the ONLY time im complaining about distance is the distance between base and our home.

I go from frustrated to depressed and sad. There are many emotions that go into being LD. I am happy and he makes me very happy. But sometimes I feel like all I want to do is cry.

What makes me really mad is when people complain about not seeing their BF/GF not every week. I'm like, really?! Makes me crazy!

While it is 'moan, moan, moan', it is also understandable.

I know exactly hOw you feel. I just left from visiting my boyfriend in New Mexico and were hoping to close our distance soon because it killed us being apart. Hey where did you fly back from Sarah? What airport? I saw a couple just as sad as I am leaving each other as well.

To me the highs and lows make it so much worse. One day I am like I can do this...I love him and I need to be grateful for what I have. Other days I think I can't do this any more I need him here now. I know I am lucky that we can talk everyday. I can't even begin to imagine how hard it is to go days without talking. I am not sure I am strong enough to do that.

Imagining a worse case scenario usually works for me. No guarantee though, it could actually make you feel worse.

The same old boring tip still holds true though. Keep yourself busy. I mean I just realized I forgot to eat lunch because I was busy playing Civ 5
It's also the same reason he most likely seems to be more fine with being apart. I mean he's doing military training, that if anything will keep his mind occupied.

When im on a high, I feel amazing and the luckiest girl alive to be with such ana amazing man, And i feel the need to pat myself on my back because i am being a strong 21 year old when most of my friends couldnt even do what i am doing. But when i get the low .. boy dont i know about it! I just cant seem to snap out of it.

Its like day 4-5 today and my mood seems to be getting worse! I am keeping extremely busy. I work in a Hotel im working 11.30am to 11pm i get up and go to work and i come home have a bath a cup of tea and i go to bed. I couldnt keep any busier if i tried and if i did ill probably end up ill. This is my 7th day at work too. But nothing seems to be working :/ I'm hoping ill snap out of it soon! :/

[Swederica]

I'm just brainstorming here but there could also be the potential that you keep busy the wrong way, so to speak. Certain jobs leave lots of room and time for the mind to drift away. Others require a different sort of attention and thus keeps it occupied. Yet another is just plain fun to do and as such you forget you have a mind to begin with. Is it possible that your job falls under the first category? Oh and I'm not saying "Get another job" just a find a way to have your head busy.

I flew back from Dallas, Texas. I flew back from Dallas Love Field. It's smaller than Dallas Fort Worth. I'm from NC. Born and raised
