Hello everyone! I'm a bit over a year into my LDR. It has been the most wonderful eye-opening (and sometimes frustrating) experience. I'm posting today because of something I've noticed between my girlfriend and I. Leaving her and flying back to where I live is always hard. From my perspective, it seems to be far harder on her than on me. She has told
me that not a day goes by that she doesn't cry from missing me. Each time I say goodbye at the airport seems to get harder and harder for her. I miss her terribly. I have rarely cried over the hurt of being apart. One time that stands out in my mind was about a week after visiting her, I finally unpacked by travel bag. The moment I opened the bag the smell of the dryer sheets she uses while doing laundry hit me, and I just collapsed.
I know she and I are two different people, and that everyone deals with feelings in their own way. Has anyone else experienced this apparent difference in feelings of
missing each other?
