I went through something like this in the late 1980s.
The guy moved from Moscow to Seattle. It was still the Iron Curtain / Cold War time and yes, I believed, at that time (we were both teens) that I would NEVER see him again. So yes, EVER / NEVER are difficult concepts to grasp. Very difficult.
It was outright horrible.
I did get to see him again after a few years and had a long distance relationship with a couple of get-togethers, but eventually we grew apart.
But in your case, it is 2013 and you are in England and the guy is moving to Australia.
- Not across the Iron Curtain
- Not to another galaxy
- Simply, to Australia.
So where does the tragedy part come from?
