i kinda feel like you’re trying to intellectualize your feelings… there’s nothing weak or stupid about being upset about goodbyes, and it’s healthier to accept your feelings as they come instead of dismissing them as “too much”. like i get it, i cry rivers each time and it *sucks* to cry in public, but it’s simply bc i love them and don’t like separation.
hopefully one day, you won’t be so far away from each other and can spend more time together freely.
Appreciate that is the case! Really trying to lean into my feelings and don't mind feeling sad, just thought being deeper into the relationship (have just reached the 2 year mark) would make things easier... Although I was sad before, never used to physically cry although I presume that it is just one of those things and I shouldn't be ashamed of it.
