> Thanks everyone, as always. It is very hard to just let myself have this kind of comfort. I told him that today and also told him there was relief that he didn't expect me to be OK with him leaving. He said the relief makes sense and so do the tears. I did make him laugh when he asked if I had plans while he is away. I'm going skydiving on Friday with my son. This was not the answer he expected. He said this might be the turning point in my therapy, although if 15 minutes of falling makes a huge change he is out of business. :)
Skydiving! Wow! Well, that might be quite a distraction, at least for the 15 minutes you’ll be falling through the air!
> At the end I said I would try not to cry tomorrow and he told me I didn't have to take care of him and I didn't have to be perfect and together to guarantee he would come back. I just had to be myself. (Does that mean he doesn't think I'm perfect!?)
Maybe he prefers people with a few imperfections! I know I do.
> I'm going to miss him a lot.
How long will he be on vacation? (Sorry if you’ve already said; my memory’s like a sieve).
Do keep posting. We’ll all be here for you while he’s away (and always).
