It varies from person to person. For me, I've been through the post-visit blues more than 10 times already, so I cope a little easier. I can be back to normal by the 2nd day. The day he leaves or after he leaves kills me, but I am usually able to get back into a routine pretty quickly. But, it does hurt.

I dont get the chance to visit often (every 4months its looking like!) so maybe thats why it took me so long, that or maybe im too emotional for my own good! Its interesting to see how much it varies!

We once had a trip where it was a month between when I left him and when he visited me (we had family holiday plans together), it was awesome and definitely one of the easiest goodbyes/sadness after a trip I've had.

For me, It always depends on how long I visit for. There are some times when I only visit for a couple days, and then it only takes a day or so to get back into the routine, but when we visit for several weeks, it takes quite a bit longer to get used to sleeping alone again and not constantly turning around to show him something or say something to him.
