Girlfriend Withdrawal Symptoms

Day 1 of 21

So we have the first day of the three weeks I won't be able to see P. Though I promise to make the posts for the rest of this period less mopey.

Well this is a new experience and therefore I will over analyse it as such. I'm definitely feeling more subdued and less bouncy. It also is interesting to realise how much I powered myself of the excited energy that came from the knowledge I'd be seeing her in a few hours.

Thinking about it rationally its a very small amount of time, especially compared to what Paul and Mili have put up with and what Ruth and Dave are currently putting up with. Also I'm busy enough over the next few weeks that the time should pass fairly quickly.

Additionally I get to look forward to not having my usual christmas and new year bout of loneliness induced sadness. To be honest theres an underlying happiness in missing her, having someone to miss is great in many ways. *apologies to everyone single I know*

Well I'll make the most of my increased free time these next few weeks to get things sorted, make some plans and get to bed earlier which should be good. And of course I'll be phoning her etc as much as possible.

Emails from girlfriends are good.

Had a general relationship talk with AH over lunch. Really cheered both of us up; though I'm not sure what exactly cheered him up about the conversation.

Came back from lunch to an email from P, which of course was just the icing on the cake. According to her family like me, and her mum is actually interested in meeting me again when she next comes down to Bath. So that's good new.

P misses me too *hugs for P*

I'm currently debating how much I should write in this LJ. I might do a state of the nation (gah, too long working in a company) style post soon which you would include some of the information and details that I normally skirt around, but we'll see.

Note to all my non-uni friends

I'm fairly sure you keep up with this LJ. Any chance you could do the 'how well do you know me' thing or occasionally post comments?
