My special guy (friend at the moment but 'getting there') hasn't even left yet and I'm already in floods of tears! I'm trying to rationalise everything: it's only temporary (five months), the odds are that he'll be fine (more dangerous here!), he can come home if he hates it (only a temp job), I'll have some contact even if it's only occasional, etc. BUT I don't want him to go and, perhaps deeper, something's telling me he shouldn't go, but surely that's just me being selfish and a bit paranoid? My counsellor (seeing her about childhood stuff, but this is becoming the focus of our sessions!) says it's loss/grief - why??!! - what am I losing / grieving for... five months of my life (with him)? I've NEVER been this upset in my whole life, so what the heck is going on?? (I can't talk to my family/friends about this - they don't understand - and I'm hiding it from him because I don't want to make him feel guilty fir taking this amazing opportunity!)
Very confused... :/
