    Hey guys,

    So this thread is going to be a little off the kinds of topics I usually post. I guess I'll start with an update and then get to my actual question.

    Me and Alex are going pretty steady now, and tomorrow is our two-month "anniversary". It was around the 5-week mark that he told me that he loved me, but he totally understood that I needed longer. Well, around the 7-week mark I realized that I feel the same way about him, so I said it back. We're considering each other boyfriends now.

    I know what you're thinking. You're tempted to say, "Aaron, that's way too soon! You're moving too fast!" And maybe I am, but the honest truth is that I don't really care. Him and I had a rocky start because we found each other during psychological lows. But things are smooth now, and the chemistry is... breathtaking.

    I'm going to go over to his house tomorrow and bring him flowers. He's been in China for the past week and it's been painful to both of us - I can't wait to see him again.

    That brings me to my question. I have a tendency of missing people rather severely, and I want to be able to function without this level of sadness of not being together every moment of every day. Do you guys have any advice on helping me get through times that he's away?

    In my opinion, there's nothing much you can do. It is so normal to miss someone you really love and it is not easy, but that's life you know. That's just something you have to accept, but try to keep yourself busy with school, work or other stuff, and time will fly by faster. Also, be thankful that you have someone like him :slight_smile:

    Stay strong, good luck!

    Is there any reason you can't stay in touch while he's traveling? Texting, phone, or video chat should be able to soften the blow quite a bit. It's never going to be easy, but knowing that he's probably thinking about you just as much as you're thinking about him should help a bit.
