Little things you miss...

[nicole]

So I thought I was doing quite well coping with my first week of separation, minimal emo moments, but today I was cooking dinner for myself and then suddenly realized I'd chopped up enough vegetables to make dinner for two instead of just myself. My mum came into the kitchen to the sight of me with a knife in my hand, hysterically crying... not good. not good at all =/

So I realized big things like missing anniversaries and birthdays are pretty much on the "this is awful" scale as missing small everyday things like simply cooking him dinner, and making our bed in the morning. I even miss the stubble I know he'd have right now (doesn't shave on a weekend), even though I hated it when I was there.

Does anyone else have little things, that probably wouldn't mean much to anyone else, that they miss about their SO?

Even if I havent met my SO yet there are things I miss when I dont talk to him.
What we used to do is take naps at the same time. We used to simply just nap while camin. Sometimes I stayed away and just watched him or listend to him snorin haha Or vice versa (he mentioned once I snored a lil >_> embarassing he thought it was funny and cute haha)
That's what I miss about us :/ We havent done that for ages and it was one special way to make us feel super close.
I also miss talkin to him like really talkin not chattin. Its just easier to tell long stories and be stupid and all that.
But I guess thats the price you pay for bein in a LDR, yet I notice that once we get to do the things we both miss its even sweeter

Funny, but I miss his snoring. I never in my life thought I would miss someone's snoring but I still have nights where I'll wake up and be confused that he's not snoring beside me. About a week after he left, my best friend asked me what I missed most about him, and I started laughing because I told her that I really really missed his snoring.

I also miss playing pool with him, haha he and I would always go to the bar and play pool, and now I'll sit here at my house trying to figure out who would play pool with me, I try to talk my girl friends into it and none of them no how to play and I feel funny asking my guy friends because well, that's something I did with my man.

I miss everything really. For example: I used to place one hand on my SO's thigh while she was driving. I miss doing that. Also when I take my showers. Most of the time we showered together. It makes me sad standing there alone. Also when I go to bed. I miss wrapping one arm around my SO's body.

Even though him and I haven't came face to face yet, I miss a lot of things about him. Since his job has taken up most of his time now, our conversations and lovey dovey moments have diminished greatly. Things surely aren't in the "good" right now but I still have hope that we will make it through this staggering "time rut".....ugh.

That's another thing, we didn't really ever shower together because we were both on different schedules, but I have had a bottle of Axe shower gel sitting in my bath tub for 4 months now untouched, I haven't been able to bring myself to throw it away because I always think "what if he comes home to visit or if he comes home earlier, he's going to need that." I don't know if that's a "I miss you" thing but I guess it kinda is.

Oh the snoring! He's start snoring and I'd kiss him to wake him up and tell him off! lol and it's true, I miss everything, everyday I think of something else, like we'd have a shower together and I'd go to class or meet a friend reeking of Old spice shower gel. I guess an LDR teaches the both of you NEVER to take each other for granted.

I understand. My gf only drinks apple juice so I have like massive amounts of apple juice in my house and she's leaving and now it's like "UGH ALL THIS DAMN APPLE JUICE" and it sucks when you lived in the same town as your SO and they leave for work/school and you're still stuck in that town and everything you seee/do reminds you of them.

haha I know! My boyfriend bought a bunch of frozen fish sticks (yuck) and I honestly don't even know what to do with them, I hate fish sticks! And also the everything you see reminds you of them, I drive past his old work every day and every day it never fails that I have to drive past and just look at it. And I will go out with his friends and it's just awkward because I'm not used to hanging out with them without him, ironically they said the same thing that it's weird for them to see me without him. But it really is difficult, especially when you're lives were so entwined before they left.

I miss the funny faces he makes all the time, they way he played with my dog, the way he held me when we would take naps together, the way his finger trailed lightly up and down my spine, when he stared into my eyes when we made love, how we would down a whole pizza together in less than 10 minutes, how he never stopped holding my hand, just everything.

thats what I feel really bad about leaving my bf- I left a lot of stuff in our apartment, so I wouldn't have to pack/ship so much stuff when I go back, so there's lots of reminders of me around the place =/ and anywhere he goes out to dinner or lunch with, he's taken me to, it's a small town. At least I only have a few of his belongings, i don't know how i'd cope with all his stuff everywhere, which makes me feel even sadder =(

Gosh.. I miss everything about him.. I miss pulling his belly hair ( ♥), making pizza with him, going out and he'd have his arm around me (I looooove that), him looking at/feeling my toes going "thihih, cute little toes ^_^", after a shower together he'd dry my back and pretend to be a doctor (because I've got the wet back syndrome and I need treatment :///) which is the funniest thing ever ♥, him leaving me little notes here and there, waking up next to him and him wrapping his arms around me and saying "good morning gorgeous", him pulling the funniest face where he pretends he's about to start crying like a little baby (really should've taken a picture of that last time), him telling me how beautiful I am all the time ♥, being fat with him and eating a bag of crisps in about 15 minutes aaaaand the list could go on forever.
Pfft, yeah.. I miss being with him, so much..

[milaya]

I miss soo many things...
Some obvious .. like...
I miss having his arms around me when I fall asleep. I miss seeing his face as the first thing when I wake up.

The smaller things...
I miss his smell. I miss going shopping with him. I miss seeing the kindness in his eyes. I miss how he plays with my hair.
I miss being forced to be speaking Japanese 24/7. I miss being able to let my fingers run through his hair. I miss hearing him say "ii kao (good face)" every time I make a facial expression that he likes.

I'm glad he only left a few things behind. Some shirts and some books and some English notes (he's trying to learn English)...
A thing I find the hardest to do after he has left, is to put his pillow and blanket away. Like the last proof he was here.
He left 2 weeks ago, but I'm still sleeping next to his pillow... even though he wont use it again. Since the next time he'll come, I'll live in my own apartment.

[paulawriteslove]

I miss the noises he makes when he's thinking. And I miss the look on his face that he has when he's trying to concentrate. I miss so much! haha

[lexicaroline]

Even though we only spent a short time together there are so many things I miss about him. I miss the way he always held my hand really lightly when we were talking. Like just a couple of fingers touching. I don't know, just the way he did that was so sweet. I miss the way he would just kiss me in the middle of a sentence. I miss the way he always accidentally kissed my nose whenever we kissed standing up because I'm so short. I miss the way he was always touching me, even if it was just that he stood really close so his arm touched mine. I just miss him, I guess... :\
