..as would be expected. I've been in an up and down, long term, long distance, relationship that's caused a lot of heartache as much as it's been wonderful, but there are some issues I'm just not sure I can cope with anymore.

I still love this man (I used the name Teddy but I'm a woman) and with all of the difficulties over the years I know he doesn't think it's over. We've stopped/started speaking over and over again. It's just so hard and I don't even know when I'd have the chance to see him again. It's very painful so I'm just feeling sad. I miss him.

Teddy15, i understand. The holidays makes it hard on a lot of people with the media pushing the family connection thing. Find something to do with others, or go to a church function or a pageant or play. Put your mind around the season and the things once a year and enjoy them. And the loneliness will pass. It is hard but you can do it. tc

Are the issues due to distance? As far as missing him, are there any plans to spend time together?

If you're not happy you can't make anyone else happy. Work on you first

My divorce is just going through the courts. I am just sad too. My friend lost his wife a year ago, and he is allowed to be just sad. Someone held his hand a year ago and told him he was going to be okay. I would really like someone to hold my hand and say I am going to be okay and I will do that for you.

(((Holding your hand))))

It will be ok. It is a grieving process. There's no timeline. No book on how-to.

I divorced in '10. There does come a day, when looking back...I've come a long way.

Long distance may be ok for a short time but definitely not in the long run. I don't know about you but I want someone to share my life with. Key word there being share. I want someone near me, not smothering me, but not so far away that I can never count on them.
