Hi everyone,
so we were about to meet this week for a long weekend during a business trip of mine that I prolonged. Sadly, due to an acute severe ear infection, I am not aloud to fly for such a long time (journey was about 16 hours) and I had to cancel everything.
Of course I was very sad but also exhausted because of the infection and the medication. Now, after a few days, I am starting to feel better and reality is hitting me. We have to wait until Christmas to see each other, our last visit was three weeks in July.
My bf has been quite positive and relaxed - he said he would not focus on not meeting but instead on me getting healthy and our next meeting which is at Christmas. However, I am sure he is sad too and I feel like I cannot really be there for him. We both talked the last weeks about how nice it was that we could at least see each other for a few days before meeting up at Christmas, so that we have energy to continue. We both struggle with that our daily lives, it starts to feel like just going through the motions without each other.
Any advice or tips to feel close or to be there for each other? There is no way we can meet up earlier - due to work and financially (flight tickets are expensive from Canada to Finland).
