Last week my bf and I had a scene very much like this one. Except it was in the airport. And I had mascara running down my face. So NOT glamorous. For 2 days I looked like someone had punched me in the face. He is gone now and I am left feeling sad. He’s not gone for good though, he will be back at the end of February for a few days before he ships off to Iraq, still, that will be so quick I won’t even know it happened. And then let the year of separation commence.
It’s funny how emotional situations can manifest themselves physically. I felt hungover and slightly delusional the first day. But when you are in these situations there is really only one thing to do: call in reinforcements…
Girlfriends and alcohol! I made sure to busy myself with plans all weekend. I called my friend Mel from Modanista Junkie and since we were having a heatwave in Los Angeles, we decided to go ride our bikes down the beach and grab some sunny day cocktails. Funny how it can put a smile on the saddest of faces!

I went out on the town, over friends houses and some came over mine. I was surrounded by love and support and that makes life a whole lot easier! Thank goodness for good friends!!
Now entering a new week, I am feeling (some what) better. I have you, my amazing blogger friends to focus on! Thank you all for your kind words and support!! You are amazing!

Sweet, oh..it's though when someone you love leaves..It's good that you put your focus on as much 'happy' things as possible and know that he will be back..I had a similar love story when I went to Italy to study, crying at the airport snuggling into my boyfriends flannel shirt..He surprised me, standing in my classroom with 12 roses just 2 months later..That year was amazing..(he was my sweetheart crush) but we broke up and I am very very happily married to a traveller too:-)Big Hugs!

I had a 3 years long-distance relationship with my current b/f and I can totally understand what are your feelings…
Making yourself busy is the best weapon against sadness and dark circle around eyes!
If you feel like chatting I am on skype (namesurname all together) give me a call!!!
I can for sure tell sad is over here with -2 and thick fog. Well, and no time to head to Milan for man fashion week
ciao bella!
February is around the corner!
and plan a trip to Italy!
So sorry your bf is gone for awhile. I know how hard that can be. You are right though to busy yourself and surround yourself with friends! If you stay busy the year will be over before you know it, and I bet your relationship will be even stronger!
