please read - friend going away...what do i do????

well my ex (who is still v good mate) has just got home from uni for 4 weeks for easter and i was so looking forward to seeing him as i have been missing him loads (just as a mate its weird not having him round anymore and not being able to hang and chat etc) and i was really gearing myself up for a proper good holidays cos tbh ive had a pretty **** time of it recently, well anyways he got back this morning and i found out this afternoon he has a job on a farm and will be living there for 3 weeks while he helps out :frown:

i have never ever not spoken to him for that long since we known each other and i just burst into tears when i found out, i was really hoping to see him and now i wont be able to do that for 3 weeks, and in that week left he has a load of work to do for uni so i may not even see him then! plus i basically usually talk to him loads on msn, hes like virtually only person i talk to on it and i really love talking to him, now he wont be able to do that for 3 weeks!!! hes been away for 1 week b4 but thats it i dont know seriously if i will manage 3 weeks i feel so **** missing him already, hell have his phone, but he will be working long days and he is a student so cant really text much cos it will end up costing him a fortune, i just dont know what to do and for next 3 weeks i will feel at a loss for what to do with myself :confused:

Put some perspective on this.

It's three weeks, not three months or three years.

The farm will have a phone, we don't live in the dark ages anymore. The farm will probably have the internet. Phone him and chat on MSN.

If he can't afford credit then why don't you put £20 in his phone?

Your still in love with him aren't you? I think the break will do you good. You obviously can't get over him because your with him all the time.

ok so unlike everyone else i am going to say i completly understand how you feel. 1 of my mates i have known since i was 11 and i only get to see him every few months as he lives 6 hours away. i havent seen hm since august and went about 5 months without even speaking to him. it nearlly killed me. we have gone through so much together and although we are now at such different place in our lives then each other our history still keeps abond between us. I cant wait to see him during the easter holidays. Whle the 3 weeks may be tough i am sure that you will find a way to communicate with eachother. even if its only a text to each other in the evening just telling each other how your respective days were will help. just think how happy you will be hen you do get to see him!
