Does absence make the heart grow fonder?

OP

Original post by heyyy123456

I've definitely missed my boyfriend and wish I could see him. lockdown had made me realise how much he means to me and that I want to spend as much time with him. I am bored of just staying in the house though and have cried a few times (each day) because I miss all my mates and my boyfriend and family and want things to go back to normal.

Yeah I think for most people it’s made them appreciate their others half’s more and their friends.

A few of my friends have found the conversation monotonous though.

some of my mates have drifted so we aren't as close but I still message them each day when I can to make sure they are doing ok. I facetime my family and friends who live further away and haven't seen since way before lockdown

That wait will probably be a lifelong wait

Change your internal dialogue about that, open yourself up for love by being open and knowing it’ll come 🌹

I hope my friends don’t drift from me but it seems romantic relationships have become the priority

I've seen you post stuff like this several times over the past few days.

Stop it.

You're not even 20, you will definitely meet a lot of people, especially once you start Uni :smile:

It happens a lot, especially at a young age. It’s painful but it’ll lead to something good when you start to meet new people

I'm really sorry, all I can say is that although it hurts like hell now, give it time and things will start to feel better. Remember you are your own person, prioritise self-care and doing stuff which makes you feel good about yourself- essentially you don't need a guy to define who you are. Try and keep your chin up, you'll learn and grow from this, everything happens for a reason <3

Sorry about that, why did he do that?

If it’s any consolation it looks like I’m headed that way too
