I have a question for those of you who used to be in a long distance relationship, but no longer are. I'll give a bit of overview.
I moved to Toronto to live with my fiance a little over 5 weeks ago. Before that, we visited as often as we could afford to, usually every 2-3 months. During every visit, when it would come toward the end, I would start getting anxiety-filled and somewhat panicky - particularly the night before we would have to part. I'd dread the next morning so badly, and would sometimes shed quite a few tears over it. Now, I'm living with my fiance, and I thought I wouldn't suffer from this again. The first few weeks found me suffering from a bit of homesickness and growing pains, but that's about it. After that faded away, I find myself having those panic attacks of "Oh my god, tomorrow's the day - we're gonna have to leave each other again, oh my god!" again. This always seem to happen on Sunday nights, when he has to go back to work the next morning.
This was especially bad last night, as, over the weekend, we were hardly allowed a moment's peace and quiet - always having plans, having to be somewhere, having plans, etc.
So, my question is this - has anyone else gone through this, even when the emotions are now unwarranted?
