Just returned from airport...

[Yukimura26]

This morning, i went to airport with my Japanese friends (they are exchange students from a high school in shizuoka-ken) because they are going back to Japan...I kept my smile all the time until they went inside..i just couldnt hold it anymore and tears bursted out.. It was so emotional...even though i will go visit them again after 3-4 months in the summer..it just seems so long without them...

2 of them are my best friends, and 1 is my GF..I MISS THEM SO MUCH!!!

P.S so depressed atm..-0-``

I'm right behind you man. I know how you feel because alot of my friends are exchange students as well. I went to the airport to say goodbye to my best friend from Argentina and it was so sad seeing her off, one of the most emotional times in my life. Like you I felt depressed after see left, like there was a big hole in my life.

The best advice I can give you is this, try not to focus on it (I know this is easier said than done) a really good way to do this is to try and hang out with other good friends as much as you can because it keeps you busy. Also keep in contact with them, buy an international phone card (because they are really well priced) give them a call or two every month, talk on MSN, email etc.

doing these things really helped me get through the time period (it was about 2 weeks) so I highly recommend them lol. Good luck, and don't worry you will see your girlfriend again soon! (sooner than I will see my best friend. I won't be going to Argentina until the end of 2006 because I am about to leave for Japan)

thanks alot for the advice, ill try to get over it..right now my mind is half dead..too depressed/lazy to do anything at the moment..-__-

lol yeah you will feel a little that way. you need to persevere a bit, sleeping is a good idea then go out and do something

no worries yukimaru, the first few weeks after will be hard but you gotta keep strong, i cried like a little baby girl at an airport to when my g/f went home.

just be strong and be there for your friends and g/f, and send her photos as and when you take them, or even a t-shirt you wear, its one of my t-shirts which has got my g/f through some hard times.

i would also suggest MSN to keep in regular contact, and MSN audio chat helps alot, though, prepare initially for some pining from hearing her/their voice.

finally just remember, its only a few months, and if you both recognise thats its hard being apart, but reaffirm you need each other, then you should be able to cope, until then. hope my meager little attempt at advice helped some
